The Need for Change

I’ve been to a few industry conferences lately, which I quite honestly love. Continuing to learn is what I have continually strove for in my continuing career. And life.

A common theme that keeps popping up is the notion of “change.” We are going through a dizzying pace of change lately, thanks to, well, a lot of things including technology. In my upcoming book, I talk about how a constant state of change is a constant in our lives now.

One person at one of the conferences quoted her grandfather, and it was just so grand:

“If you always do

what you’ve always done

then you’re always going to get

what you already got.”

I mean seriously, how precious is that? And true! I’ve quoted it several times since I first heard it so I figured that I better blog about it.

Words to live by. Scratch that…words to change by!

And then here’s one of my own quotes, that seemed to fly through Twitter after one of the conferences:

“If you’re not changing

then you’re probably moving backwards.”

Got a quote? What’s your experience? JIM
