Don’t be static. Never let the certainty of change catch you napping. Don’t let your life wane into littleness and nothingness. You don’t have to remain in the doldrums of yesteryears. If you really understand the changes that have taken place today, you will realize that some of the things that hitherto were an essential part of our existence are now outdated.

For instance, how necessary is the traditional structured formal education system in the era of the internet and search engines? Everything that is known by man today, and can be known by man today, has been indexed. Today, if you are smart enough, you can literally diagnose and treat your condition successfully. All you have to do is to precisely describe your ailment Google and it will give you millions of pages of diagnosis that any intelligent person could use to effectively self-medicate.

What kind of changes do you need to make today? What can you do at the moment to position yourself better to handle your current challenges? What skills do you need to acquire to effectively meet the demands of today’s world?

In what ways can you take the good that you already have to higher levels of excellence? You can make attempts to fix it even when it is not broken. Self improvement is a never ending exercise.
