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 calorie reduction by Gene, copied so I can include stress, high intensity exercise, sleep and carb restriction.

A tongue in cheek look at taking a Gene Udemy Course

We want to know the estimated projected Earnings before tax of a 5 year project. For this we have modeled Sales Growth, Cost of goods sold and Admin. expenses applying sensitivity testing by using probability distributions.

A simple rookie pro workforce supply chain like Gene's insight with optimal intake policy taking into account the target for professionals and the trainees already in the pipeline. See also Gene's insight for data patterns

This is a stock-flow consistent model, namely the simplest (SIM) model with government money.

(I had to change the equation for consumption demand. Disposable income and wealth now enterwith a time lag of one period. Otherwise the model would be recursive and would not be solvable in Insight Maker. Thanks to Gene for support.)

New Learning tend to reduce Outdated Thinking, Communicating & Learning though our Outdated Thinking, Communicating & Learning inhibits new learning. The question is then how do we break this cycle. Adopted from "An Introduction to Systems Thinking with STELLA" by Barry Richmond.

A basic production model showing negative and positive loops, often called a balancing model.
