Finding Success in Changing Times: Sign Me Up!
“Success in changing times?” That sounds nice. I’ll have some of that! If only it were that easy, but it’s not.
Finding success in changing times doesn’t just happen, and there is no magic formula. Staying out in front of change can be a very precarious dance.

Dr. Hester was a member of three Hubble Space Telescope instrument teams, and played a key role on the team that repaired the telescope. Time Magazine named his Hubble image, “The Pillars of Creation,” one of the 100 most influential photographs in history.
Finding success in changing times isn’t something that you do once and have it over with. Instead, succeeding in the face of change is an ongoing process. It has to be. That is what “change” means! Yesterday’s recipe for success might not work today. And today’s recipe for success might not work tomorrow.
Change doesn’t play fair. It doesn’t tap you on the shoulder to warn you, and it doesn’t stop to let you catch up. To stay out in front of change you have to see it coming. Finding success in changing times is something that you have to do every single day. It has to become a habit.
When it comes right down to it, the hardest and usually the scariest part of finding success in changing times is that it requires us to change! That means changing what we think. It means changing what we do. And most importantly it means constantly reassessing what we know.
