Momentum
Yahoo IM conversation today with an old friend -
D: Do you want to be in a place where there’s an earthquake every 10 minutes or so?
Me: Yeah – that would be an interesting place to live in.
D: Check this – http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqscanv/Quakes/quakes_all.html
Me: Nice!
D: Yes, you would feel at home there – there’s no lack of momentum.
D meant it in a cheeky way, but I realized that what he said was true. It was a well-thought out insight. I like momentum, movement, things happening.
Some years back I used to fear change. It was followed by a phase where I compromised – and decided that I preferred controlled change.
Now, I just look for change. Disruption. Everywhere. And try to create it where I can.
Do you?
Well, at the time I wrote this, I was. It’s become a sine curve sort of thing – ups and downs.
