Optiservation

Optimism + Observation = Optiservation

It is the point of a project where you take a step back, look at all the progress you've made, acknowledge the lessons learned, appreciate the hurdles overcome, and strategize for the next steps.

Optiservation is this pause to soak in the success but analyze the actionable, reasonable, tasks that require attention. Reward the hard work, but remind yourself you are not done yet. You have a ways to go on the journey of continuous improvement.

The feeling of accomplishment, but "we aren't done yet."
At certain critical phases of your project make some time optiservations to soak in the success but strategize the next steps.

Optical solution

A response to a problem that appears to solve a problem, but doesn't actually solve the problem.
The new system increased the graduation rate to 100%. (This was an optical solution because this was done by lowering the standards to pass).
Our planes always land on time. (This was an optical solution because they added an hour to the time of flight).
We are giving you 20% off. (This is an optical solution because they raised the price 40% first).
The school now has great test scores. (This was an optical solution because they make the exam optional...the high scoring kids take it therefore the problem wasn't really solved).

optisexual

Optisexual refers to a person whose gender identity, sexual preference, and biological sex, or a combination thereof, are dynamically determined on the fly to maximize rights, privileges, and benefits. The optisexual individual is not obligated to claim, identify, or declare a fixed identity; instead, these aspects change automatically and seamlessly as needed to optimize their societal experiences, adapting for improved rights, benefits, or privileges.

A portmanteau of the words "optimal" and "sexuality".
In a rapidly changing societal landscape, optisexual individuals navigate without explicit self-identification, experiencing automatic adjustments in gender, sexual preferences, and sex to ensure ongoing optimization of rights, privileges, and benefits.
