If you feel like the face-mask selfie is an unofficial series that's been living in your Instagram feed for a solid few years now, good observation.

A well-defined problem is half solved. But getting there is harder than you'd expect. Enter the world of value propositions. Selling seems easy from the company's perspective: it already knows its product and may be over-valuing the perceived benefits. The reality is there are all sorts of inertia to overcome. Communication is hard, and it needs to cascade to every level if you want to be persuasive. Slapping up a new headline doesn't count.

If you teach special education or have a child in need of remedial or special help, you may soon start asking "Why does he keep forgetting? What's wrong with him?" Maybe he forgets because he doesn't attend to or understand the important information, concepts or processes. And maybe, in full or part, he's a struggling learner with memory problems. But physically, directly, legally and morally, you can't get into his brain to rearrange his memory cells and synapses as he's a real child, not an android in a bizarre science-fiction movie. So, you're helpless. Right? Wrong. You're not.
