User-centered to User-focused

Pursue intermediate goals to achieve the ultimate agenda.

I misread the 'intermediate' as immediate. Going for the immediate or jumping into action or the Bezo's action bias, gets you the low hanging forests, your actions informs the strategy.

But its 'intermediate' and hence we move onto the Obliquity principle ( funny - Balboa looking for gold not oceans..., Another dark humor with guns aimed at the ocean) . If you think something is 'not part of the study', you are scoping yourself in, which is good project management but you are not looking for solutions. 

Obliquity means moving from learner-centered for example in high-ed to less learner-focused. Territory is not the map. Learner is not the lesson. Not all good is user-centered (sic). Not all good 'design' is user-centered.
