The Jokers are Teacher and Petulant Child grappling to understand their place in the universe. Whether or not to roll over and accept the cards being dealt. Pondering everything from Fee Phi Foe and Fum to Data`s pursuit to be human. They meander and fumble with diverse topics such as Douglas Adams Theory "The Fundamental Interconnectedness of All Things", "Universal Synchronicity and Serendipity" and how to play a major part in self-coaching and motivation. Querying universal consciousness mindful to see if it is self-aware or whether it really cares what they think. The series deals with the Jokers’ frustrations, aspirations and even spiritual flirtations all the while exploring what Raison D'être should apply for the foreseeable future. Each episode a journey into the known and unknown uncertainties that await in the as yet unmanifested future of potentialities.

#030 - Self-Direction.
“You’re bipolar,” Garvin blurts out. “That’s logical from both directions.”
“That’s risky,” George replied. “Gather yourself together. Don’t get blocked.”
“It’s Summertime,” Garvin shouts. “Don’t panic with study. Enjoy it.”
George has spent his life directing others but are the signs now saying, “let them direct themselves.” Everyone is on a journey and only they can know the answer to the questions poses. The core of mentoring, coaching, and counselling is to allow self-exploration and self-discovery. George’s student wanted him to give the answers but instead, he replied, “That’s not important. What do you want?”
George asks Garvin, “How do you encourage others to seek the answer themselves?” Garvin refuses to answer because he was thinking of something else. He’d focused on George’s unwitting question, and the answer, in Garvin’s mind it was “42”.
The only trouble was that no-one knew the question. From Garvin’s perspective, this was an unfathomable universal problem. “Is it 6 times 7? 42 time 1? 6 by 9 in Based-13? Is it the number to a house?”
Should we target the answer and work backward? Cars, models, and fancy clothes are Garvin’s aspirations, but how the hell does he get there? Can this be achieved in one lifetime? “What was the question again?”
“You’ve to do a bunch of stuff?” Garvin smiles. “If you want that, stop what you’re doing now. Cuz it ain’t working.” Visualise where you want to be and take the steps necessary to get there and don’t trip. Mind the Gap. “What will lead to the answers I now want,” Garvin quizzes. “And what questions should you ask yourself that will lead me there? It’s critical path analysis with limited time on Earth.”
George asks a question then gets confused when Garvin persists in getting clarification on every aspect until George’s head spins off again. “It’s only when a specific question is asked that I can find a solution,” says George, then reverts to techno-babble to try and gather his thoughts. Garvin answers, “I’ve combed my teeth and brush my head.” George is gobsmacked. “What do we do now?”
If you want to know, then ask yourself the right questions so your answers can be met. Self-direct.
