I completely agree. The ultimate objective should always be continuous learning and improvement, both personally and professionally.

Continue to grow. The opposite of growth is ☠ #growth

GROWTH is the only constant

It's not easy to get out of that trap. While there are many factors involved, what is clear is that the status quo may not be working anymore. In the words of Bateriku CEO, "Change, or DIE!." Change could be in the form of enhancements - creating new or better processes. It could also be restrictions - putting limits to or even eliminating existing processes. Change could also mean both - such as the requirements needed to implement automation. You could enhance certain features, while at the same time limiting some flexibility previously enjoyed, in order to create standardization and rigidity/repeatability. Some problems may need to be solved with "hard" change, and others with "soft" change. Be forewarned, when done properly, the changes will solve existing problems. But, you shall trod down a diverging path - a new direction. New problems will emerge, as a result. This is where fine tuning will happen, and must be constantly monitored and further tweaked. Failing which, will cause you to end up right where you started - the same place as last year.

Entering the same space as last year can indeed feel daunting. It's a sentiment that resonates deeply with anyone striving for growth and progress. Because stagnation breeds complacency, and in today's rapidly evolving world, staying stagnant means falling behind. The fear of remaining static can serve as a powerful catalyst for change. It urges us to push beyond our comfort zones, embrace innovation, and seek new opportunities for growth. After all, it's in the unfamiliar, the unexplored, where true potential lies. So, let's heed the call to venture into uncharted territories, ready to embrace the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Because in the journey of self-improvement and evolution, the scariest place to be is indeed the same place as last year.

GROW! If you find yourself caught in a cycle of repetition, it's time to break free. Reflect on whether you've been treading the same path for the past 3-4 years, yielding little growth. You must evolve. As my mentor often emphasizes, cultivate both passion and vision. A clear direction is essential to ignite passion in your endeavors. Zoom out to see the bigger picture. Once you grasp your vision, you'll recognize the pivotal moments for growth, propelling you towards your life's grandest aspirations. #GROW

We're nearly 20% through 2024. How's it going? Are you making progress towards your goals? Don't let challenges or setbacks bring you down...use them as fuel for growth! #goals #progress #progressnotperfection #challenge #setbacks #growth #success #achieveabettertomorrow

'The Greens think they're a law unto themselves' Is it possible for The Greens to ever be wrong? I agree with some people on some things and other people on other things. Only when they say logical things. Whenever someone says something illogical I do have to say: please be logical. What are the logistics? Where is the data? Is it reliable? Is it ACCCURATE AND VERIFIED AND VERIFIABLE? Or are we PRETENDING SOMETHING? If the Greens can justify what it is they say, let's all listen to why. And let's all let them say anything they think we should all hear. Government is there to govern us AS BEST AS THEY POSSIBLY CAN BASED ON THE VERY BEST INFORMATION. THE VERY MOST VERIFIABLE FACTS. What else could they be there for? What else SHOULD they be there for? According to who? Why would anyone disagree? HOW COULD ANYONE BELIEVE ANYONE WHO DISAGREED? Either you say logical and provable and wise things we should listen to, or you don't. Either you say things that improve our lived experience in our community or you don't. Either you help or you don't. Either you speak with us or at us. Either you speak truths or things that aren't truths. Either you can prove why you say what you say or you can't. Either you love your electorate or you love someone or something else. More than them. Either you work for the people you represent or you do not. Either you work hard or you don't. I love community law. But they don't attract the best people. So our principal solicitor used to come back from meetings wondering why she felt so bad for quitting corporate law. Why? All the women at the meeting were sleeping. Physically, some of them. Mentally, EVERYONE WAS ASLEEP IN COMMUNITY LAW WHEN I SAW THEM. Their heart was well intentioned but MY GOD WHAT WERE THEY ACTUALLY DOING? DOTTERY WEIRDOS. FLUFFY CONVERSATIONS THAT WERE ALL HEART AND NO BRAIN. I love the corporate world, the art world, and humans who are VERY CAPABLE. THE WORLD CANNOT BE SAVED BY YOU BECAUSE YOU WEAR A SILLY HAT. OR A STUPID JACKET. OR IDENTIFY WITH A STUPID STICKER ON YOUR STUPID CAR. THE WORLD NEEDS PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO FIX THE WORLD. OR NO? WHAT SOCKS AND SANDALS SHOULD THEY WEAR? WHAT DUMB HIPPIE SHIT SHOULD THEY SAY. Bob Dylan hated pretenders. Me too. I love environmental activists who KNOW 1. WHAT SUSTAINABILITY IS. 2. WHAT TERMS MEAN. 3. HOW TO PROBLEM IDENTIFY. 4. HOW TO PROBLEM SOLVE. 5. HOW TO RESEARCH WELL. 6. HOW TO MAKE MONEY TO INVEST IN SOLUTIONS THAT WORK. 7. HOW TO ASSESS RISK. 8. HOW TO CALCULATE DAMAGE. 9. HOW TO BALANCE A SPREADSHEET WITH HONESTY AND INTEGRITY. 10. HOW TO COMMUNICATE RESPECTFULLY. 11. HOW TO COLLABORATE WITH ALL PEOPLE. 12. WHO TRY TO SAVE THE LIVES OF ALL HUMANS. EVEN IF YOU DON'T DRESS LIKE A SHITTY WIZARD OF WEED BROWNIES. 13. WHY FASHION AND CREDIBILITY MATTER. 14. WHY LOGIC IS THE ONLY THING THAT WILL LOGICALLY SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT. 15. WHY MAKING MONEY TO INVEST IN ENVIRONMENT-SAVING SOLUTIONS IS THE ONLY WAY TO DO IT. Or, no?
