Accelerate change

2009-03-07

I want to accelerate change. All change, even “bad”.

I put “bad” in quotes, because that’s what others call it, though I don’t believe you can call a fact bad or good.

Why do I want even “bad” change? Because it’s a challenge. And I’m one confident mofo. I can handle anything the world throws my way. So bring it on!

Accelerating change is a time machine. Let’s get the future here faster. Change is good training.

There’s opportunity in everything. If it’s something that most people see as a “bad” change, then discovering its benefit is even more fun.

Cut off my legs, and I’ll still find a way to run.
