4 things I think its useful to bear in mind...


1. We’re always changing



People talk a lot about change - even on your website


http://www.culturalleadership.org.uk/259/



“Things certainly were different before these new fangled changes”







“Well of course they were you senile old git, or they wouldn't be changes, would they?”

“Well of course they were you senile old git, or they wouldn't be changes, would they?”

So because we’re always changing, we’re always the same.















Get used to it

get on with it

Learn to adapt and prosper









2. Stop talking to yourself



It’s depressing how many people I know when I come to things like this

That’s why I don’t do them very often

If you’re interested in diversity at all, you should embrace all that the word implies



Get out more

Seek out uncomfortable situations

That’s where you’ll find the most compelling opportunities


3. Realise how rich you are



If you earn £20,000 or more you’re in the top 4% of earners in the world

And I’m not just talking about money - here in the UK have immense cultural and social riches

Get your head out of the poor school

learn how much you can accomplish with positive thinking



4. Do things differently


Life is disruptive

Disruption is creative

Look at your habits and patterns in your life and try to do some differently



See what difference you can make if you make differently.
