Challenging The Status Quo
Whenever an innovation occurs there are a couple of things that the innovating authority needs to do in order to ensure adoption. First there needs to be some “market” for the innovation – i.e. a need of some sort – and secondly they need to put forward a convincing case to show that the innovation meets the need.
Serenity
Just at this moment life seems to be very full of “situations” and it is clear that each situation can only be influenced to a limited extent. In some cases that may well mean that no influence can be brought to bear and I don’t think there is any where full control can be applied. For these situations it is crucial that efforts are focussed on what can be influenced – and not wasted on the rest.

Thoughts On A Meme
I have to admit that I ‘collect’ what the online world has taken to calling “memes”.

(and yes – I do realise that in the accepted sense “memes” are more than ‘just’ “aphorisms”)
A Pointless Habit
Why do you continue to do something when you are convinced that it is no longer worthwhile?
Every now and again – perhaps more often than we might care to admit – we develop – well lets call them habits – that persist long after the justification for them has lapsed or, even worse, the habit has become damaging in one way or another. I’m not talking here about anything that is necessarily pernicious or threatening or even “wrong” – simply no longer worthwhile.
