The future depends on what you do today!

Life is a Laboratory

It matters as much in life where we are headed as where we are now.  If we get it right in the Now tomorrow can be much better than today.  The human mind is a powerful tool that we can use to help us achieve our goals. Life itself is a laboratory where we can experiment,  learn, try things out and receive feedback in the real world.  The focus of this website is on understanding and preparing for the future.  Also how we can harness the power of our minds to change and grow and be future ready.

Learning is key!

“The future of work consists of learning a living.”
Marshall McLuhan

This is a world of rapid change driven by rapidly evolving technology, climate change, demographics, globalisation and a global pandemic. This is a world where we constantly need to re-skill and up-skill or become outdated.  A growth mindset combined with life-long learning are key to being adaptable.  We need to know what type of world is emerging over the next 10-20 years and prepare for it.   The future belongs to those who prepare for it! I enjoy learning and I enjoy teaching especially on the future of work/futures thinking.

“As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.”

Henry David Thoreau
