In my profession I hear a lot about change. I also hear a lot about the times of radical change we are living in.
Humanity has never stopped living in times of radical change.
Change is constant; it is given. Change could just as well be the only constant in our life. We do not drive change; we live in it. We do not facilitate it; we navigate through it.
Heraclitus quoted that
“No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man.”
Change is here. Whether we want it or not, we are living organisms and every cell in our body, every thought in our mind, every beat of our heart is different day after day. It’s evolving, it’s worsening or it’s progressing. It is taking the natural course of life.
And this organism operates in another organism - a social, political, economic and environmental context - that is also under constant movement, under constant change.
My question then to all of us is the following:
What if instead of surrendering to the change that defeats us, we take a stand and we fight for the change that will have the best impact on humanity?
