Our Amazing, Ever-Changing World

The pace of our lives has increased significantly in the last few years—and most indications are the acceleration will only pick up! It is becoming exponential.

We all need to constantly upgrade our skills-as many thrown out of work recently will attest to. The abilities and talents that carried us for so many years may already be obsolete in today’s ever-changing marketplace. Watch the short video below to get a sense of how fast our WORLD is evolving:

Our kids need to adapt to a rapidly changing environment—and the pastimes that we parents deride (like video gaming, for instance) may actually be useful in the adoption of new technologies and business models. Time to take a fresh look at what’s happening—and perhaps it’s a good idea to suspend JUDGMENT on how we think things SHOULD be and instead ADAPT to the way they ARE and—more importantly, WILL BE!

Bring it on!
