CHANGE: Capitalize or Capsize!

There’s nothing strange or mystical about change. Nothing superhuman. Change is constant. Continuous.

In the world of business, change is also relentless. It’s rapid. And it’s reality. You can only be certain of its uncertainty.

To effectively deal with change—simply requires your willingness to take a step beyond.

David Thomas, former Dean of the the Cornell Business School once said, “The number one characteristic of students who later became company leaders, is the ability to withstand uncertainty.”

Therefore, if you want, need or demand more from your life, business, team, customers, clients or prospects—you may have to change. The old way may no longer be appropriate or even work. Your past assures nothing. It’s an influencer, not a guarantor. Clinging to the old way, just because “it has always been done that way,” thwarts new ideas, opportunities and solutions.

Daily, ask yourself:

• Do you choose to innovate?

• Do you choose to imitate?

• Or do you choose to vegetate?

And if you choose the latter, change may force you—to simply abdicate!
