Reinvention: Change Or Die?


"You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water."

Rabindranath Tagore
Indian Mystic, Author


But do we need to "cross the sea"?

I also came across a quote from Tennessee Williams which said "Security is a kind of death" which to me implies the need to evolve.


Can you prosper staying where you are whether "you" are a company or an individual?

Or do you need to change to live?

  1. I think you are asking do we always need to try to do more, right? If so, the answer is no. There are many examples of people who live fulfilling lives never trying to get further ahead. Not everyone is meant to be a CEO.

  2. "Crossing the sea" is not just about business promotions. It is also about improving our personal lives. You may well accept less responsibility in your job so you can achieve something more in your personal life.

    But whatever you want to do, you can't if you only stand "staring at the water."
