We're in an age where the pace of life and the rate of change are rapidly accelerating. We're immersed in sensory input, that for me is boarding on overload. Just keeping up with the constant flow of news through the media or emails or Facebook conversations consume vital space, time and energy. We tend to be eager to get on with the next new thing and tend to see things in small units of time that are hinged right around this very moment without regard for the long term. It's an age of expediency and it can be very costly. The state of immediate gratification, of instant results, of feeling good right now can be a block to long term sustainability in success, in our life, our business, and indeed our planet.
