Whether you like it or not, we are currently in a season of economic uncertainty. A couple of years back, everything seemed fine. Many did notsee the handwriting on the wall. Most of those who saw it talked about it and did nothing about it. When the roof came crashing, it affected thosewho were clueless and those who had a clue and did nothing about it the same way. The wise foresees trouble and takes evasive action while the foolruns smack into it.
        In business and life generally, things go up and down. Nothing stays the same forever. Markets go up and down. Business is always evolving asnew technologies or trends become mainstream. If everything is going well with our business, it does not mean we can just sit back and relax. Instead,we need to look beyond today’s certainty to when something new comes up and disrupts our business. We need to be prepared for that eventuality, orwe would be ambushed by it.
          A smart business invests in the next technology rather than wait to be put out of business. If we want our business to last long, we need to seebeyond today to tomorrow’s uncertainties. We have to look at what may or is going to happen next in our area of business, and position ourselves tobenefit from it. If, unfortunately, you are already a victim of short sightedness and are struggling to get back on your feet, you may want to rememberand learn from the lesson after what you have gone through.
