I believe that big problems can quickly overwhelm if not broken down into smaller, achievable tasks. Sometimes they look so big as to be intractable – unchangeable. I tend to believe that if each of us do what we can – using the expertise, experience and skills we have – within our own spheres of influence – to effect small change here – small change there – well we can make a difference in a very big way.
Read Dave Rogers’s questioning and powerful piece: Change.
I can’t help it – in the face of all this – I remain an optimist. A believer that things can change. And that those changes happen with very small, and sometimes seemingly unrelated, steps.
Keep your chin up.
