Old News

There's no market for yesterday's newspapers or last month's magazine or last week's blog on your favorite sports team. It's old news.

Technology is moving so fast that the news of 20 minutes ago is of no value, because there's a brand new update every thirty seconds.

Corporations, dealers and all of us employees must not become old news. We must stay relevant. Are we ahead of trends or at least aware of them? Do we judge ourselves or do we learn from our customer base on how we perform? Are we significantly better today than a year ago? Are we constantly re-thinking what we're doing?

If not, we're old news and you know how valuable that is.

The fight for relevance

In our personal lives and our business lives we are in a fight for relevance. If we are important, vibrant, current, critical, let alone indispensable, we're on the right track. But, it we're dated, slow, groggy, behind-the-times, and are easily replaceable, we're in trouble.

All of the above are applicable to people or companies, personal or business lives. If you're not growing, you're dying.

Daily we must fight to be valuable and that fight should be invigorating. If it isn't, then it's time to ask the tough questions, because soon you or your company will become irrelevant.
