When we speak about “change,” we often talk about the pace of change or the challenge of change. Dr. Clint Sprott, emeritus professor of physics at the University of Wisconsin, wrote “… how great it is to be part of the first generation of humans for which the world will be a radically different place toward the end of our life than toward the beginning. The time-scale for change has suddenly become short compared to a human lifespan, which makes it an interesting (and in some ways fearful) time to live.”
Are you fearful of change? Think about it. How much has your life changed in the last 25 years? And I'm not even talking about how differently you conduct business today than you did yesterday or even the change of technology, which Moore's Law tells us, and we know first hand, is incredibly fast.
No, I'm talking about everyday life, from the first thing in the morning to the last thing at night. Do you have to remember to wind your alarm clock the night before so that it will have the power to wake you in the morning? What about that first cup of coffee: Is it brewed hot and waiting for you when you get to the kitchen? It wasn't always that way.
