Change ... or die? 05/26/2010
When someone asks me how I would go about solving a problem or resolving an issue, I usually start in the same place each time. Change. Change ... something. It has been said that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. One of the laws of physics is that an object in motion, or an object at rest, will remain so unless acted upon by an outside force. If you don't like the current situation, something has to change. Change direction; change speed; change perspective; change location; change *something* and see what happens. For some reason, people seem to fear change. But we shouldn't. Growth implies, even requires, change. Nature shows us that whatever isn't growing, is dying. So, if your business is stagnant, do something different. If your town is beginning to crumble. change the way things are done. If your relationships are fading, change the amount of time you spend nurturing them. And, don't forget that law of physics - change requires some outside force. In order to change your situation or perspective, you will most likely need to change yourself. And that may require an outside force as well. Comments Your comment will be posted after it is approved. Leave a Reply | AuthorPatrick is a 25+ year veteran of business & technology.
