Making Progress?



"There is safety in reserve, but no attraction."

Jane Austen
18th century English novelist

And in business as well.

You won't have an accident going zero miles per hour.

You also won't get anywhere.

  2. No I don't. I don't advocate any extreme. This is not a zero sum game with only one solution the answer to problems.

    Taking no risk, which is what resisting change is, will not maintain the status quo. Nor will taking too much risk translate into big wins.

    You need balance.
