"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Change.


Let's talk about change. Whether we’re talking about change in our children, change in our lives, change in our businesses, change in our institutions, or change in our world, because change is so subtle, because it’s so sneaky, because we always seem to be in reactive mode, it’s often difficult to detach ourselves from the here and now and step back so that we can try to understand what’s going on.

In fact, it’s not just that it’s hard to appreciate what’s going on. Rather, it’s about trying to comprehend the scale and the scope of the changes we are experiencing.

That’s because in the world of today it’s not just about changing today and then going back to normal tomorrow. In reality, it’s about change today and then more change tomorrow. It’s about change forever. It’s about constant and never-ending change. It’s about exponential change.
