A basic savings account model.

Faced with a performance gap the two most obvious responses are to work harder or work smarter. There are trade offs associated with each, some obvious, some not so obvious.

Rich Pictures are simply pictorial representations of the relations between a number of relevant elements. The strength of rich pictures is that they're free form without any formal rules, which also tends to be the shortcoming of rich pictures.

The delays associated with adjusting the shower is a very common example of the Balancing Loop with Delay Systems Archetype.

Initial causal loop diagram for the influences leading to the acceptance of Systems Thinking. This is the evolving version. You can compare this with IM-1948, which is the original, if you wish.

Based on Toward a General Theory of Societal Collapse which references Tainter's Model.

The limits to growth structure is based on the basic growth structure. And, as should be obvious, nothing grows forever as growth requires resources. Those required resources become a limits to growth.

The limits to results structure endeavors to bring a balance between a current state and a desired state though more often than not the action is limited by some constraint.  See also Archetypes.

Enabling a Better Tomorrow is a systemic approach for developing a systemic strategy which may be employed to intervene in a current situation to effect the desired results while minimizing the likelihood of creating new problems in the process.

Part 2 demonstrates labeling of links as well as putting elements of the model in a folder. A number of previously developed models are also presented to provide an idea of what's possible.
