Hello Zest Club Members, Welcome to September and hopefully a little warmer than August.
There is much talk about “Change”:
• “Change is good”,
• “Change is inevitable’,
• “We must change the way we do things”,
• “Change how we think about things”
The hype really makes you believe that “Change” is always good and always necessary, otherwise you’ll be left behind, you will miss something and you will never be as good as you should be.
Yes – I do believe we must be aware of Technology changes, changes that can improve communication and business efficiency. There are really many fantastic options that can enhance our lives. I do not really see these as ‘changes’; but as newer and different ways of helping in all aspects of our daily lives. The danger is that we are then led to believe that we have to “change’ everything that has not begun in the 21st Century.
These include – our Traditions, our behaviour, our language and our heritage.
Before we agree with anything that an “expert” may say – let us find out more information about the topic.
Let us look at the benefits and consequences of these decisions – before we just apathetically allow “changes” to occur. The evidence of social disruption and uncertainty are all around for us to see.
Let us remember that: “When ever we give into something or compromise our tradition, our heritage or our values – we give a bit of ourselves away!!!”
Take Care and have a very thoughtful September………….Mario
