Pushmi-pullyu is titled after the two headed lama creature in Doctor Doolittle, where the creature has two front quarters each at odds with each other trying to go in opposite directions.
Pushmi-pullyu talks of the collaborative process its self, a back and forth of ideas, trusting that the direction and vision of the other is to the benefit of the project, when one is unable to see clearly how to get there. This can also relate to human relationships, which to most of us is an exercise in collaboration, trust and the pursuit of a common good.
