### Drawing Contrast

Solver path is about building consciousness at the Individual level. That makes the bet that individual performance is variable.

See-er path avoids that bet. Instead, the view is of dots, their inter-connectivity, and the patterns that emerge to form a living system. The bet here is that a system's output can be influenced by impacting its structure. The output of each dot is assumed to be inflexible.&#x20;

The individual is no longer personally relevant.

This is a paradigm shift.

###

### Responsibility

&#x20;You are responsible for growing system's output. This path will require building the ability to:

1. **Reduce randomness**\
   Predictability is power. It's easier to summon energy when things go 'according to plan.' \
   \
   Planning will never work. Instead, observe. Zoom out as much as you need, until predictable patterns emerge. Use this view to be leading. Eliminate all elements that increase randomness.<br>
2. **Build Resilience**\
   A machine that requires constant tinkering to remain operational, is unusable. Building the ability to withstand external randomness will require vantage i.e. staying ahead of the universe's curve. And building its incentives within the system.\
   \
   Resilience = Eliminating uncertainty.<br>
3. **Establish Control**\
   What can be controlled, can be changed. What can be changed, can be scaled. &#x20;

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://playbook.thevantageproject.com/evolving/problem-see-er-ascend-path.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
