A Breakdown is the Beginning of a Breakthrough


Motivational Power Quote

A Breakdown is the Beginning of a Breakthrough
“Sometimes a break down can be the beginning of a kind of breakthrough,
a way of living in advance through a traumatic
this prepares you for a future of radical transformation .”
Cherrie Moraga, Writer, Activist, Poet, Essayist, Playwrite


As I see it . . . . . . .

A breakdown is the beginning of breakthrough

Every business and business model has a cycle . . . .

There is a cycle where it begins as an idea . . . .  and develops into a working model. Over the life of the business model it goes through series of adjustments and adapts to the changes.

Then at some point the business becomes old and outdated  . . . . and there is a breakdown in the business model.

One of two things will happen . . . .One business will ride the business model into obscurity. The business will become uncompetitive and fade away from the business landscape.

Another business will at the point of a breakdown of the business model . . . . and a beginning of a new business cycle. They will adjust their business model to remain competitive and leave the baggage of the old business model behind them.

A breakdown is the beginning of a breakthrough . . . . when it’s approached with an open mind and an attitude of possibilities.

Know When to Embrace the New


Motivational Power Quote

Know When to Embrace the New
“The most successful businessman is the man who holds
onto the old just as long as it is good and grabs the
new just as soon as it is better.”
Robert P. Vanderpoel, Financial Columnist Chicago Sun-Times


As I see it . . . . . . .

Know when to embrace the new

The business world is a world of constant change. To remain relevant we have to know what is working and worth holding on to and what is outdated and needs to be replaced.

Hanging onto old outdated methods to long can jeopardize the stability of a business and seriously affect the business position in the market place. Over time the business that fails to adjust will become uncompetitive and if changes are not made the business will fail.

As a business professional we have to continually evaluate our business, our business model and evolve to ensure that we are using the right tools of the trade.

Adjust and embrace change by removing what’s old and outdated and knowing when to embrace the new it will keep you and your business on the leading edge in your field of endeavor.
