Daily Inspiration: "Success in the next global economy will never come from chasing the ideas of the previous one!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

Here we go again!

History regularly has us this in these moments where we are surrounded by those who think progress involves going back to where we were, and those who believe that we should be going to where we will be going. Many aspects of the future are inevitable, and yet vast numbers of people try to avoid the reality of what it represents. The result is that they are left behind, the victim of false promises, while those who align to tomorrow and accept its realities are those who move ahead.

It's always been this way. You can try to ignore its existence, the future has a funny way of happening anyway!

To me, certain things are certain, inevitability is inevitable, and trends keep trending. The implications are obvious.

Trends involving the reality of tomorrow aren't wishful thinking; they aren't the ravings of a futuristic mind.

They are the facts of the future.

Like it or not, some countries are busily aligning themselves to the reality of these trends. Others like to pretend that they can go back to the 50s or 70's or 90s.

It doesn't work that way.

Which world are you in?

The old one, or the new one?
