Survival is Chaotic – Diversity Rules
Jul 11, 2020Think Different.
That was the campaign slogan that Steve Jobs used to plot the ascent of Apple to become the most valuable company in the world. Today, only 16 countries are worth more than Apple, probably less as I write.
And why should you care?
Because the principles that rule the success of Apple are the same principles that govern the success of your life.
Nothing stays still. If something functions, it changes.
Change is the operating constant. In Nature, the more diverse and chaotic the environment, the more life thrives and survives. Successful lives are also chaotic – they have to be because change is the constant in long-term success.
So why then do we cling so hard to the things we know?
Because our nervous system is wired that way. We calibrate our future based on the experiences of our past, and this works well when the past changes very slowly. Ice ages don’t come that often.
But what do you do when there is no past to calibrate upon?
We are at such a time. Without precedent, without past.
Unless you lived through the 1918 Flu Pandemic, you have no experience to compare with what is going on today; your only way to survive is by adaptation.
Adaptation is the rule of Nature. Those that adapt, survive. Those that don’t adapt become extinct.
Which is it going to be for you?
I get a lot of criticism for the way I run my company – mostly from people who have never done such a thing. Most businesses go broke after five years; BodyChance has survived over 20 years.
The criticism I hear the most is – you keep changing the rules.
No-one knows what the latest rule is! they complain.
I understand people’s need for safety, for consistency, for reliability and at all times, I strive to honour this need.
But not at the cost of extinction.
And my company has faced extinction at least twice in the last 20 years. Each time I changed the rules, and we survived.
Are you doing the same with your practice?
If you need support, stimulation and new ideas, I’ve decided to reduce my ATSuccess Foundations course by 50%. The course is a series of 6 lessons, each consisting of several videos.
While you study the course, you will have an opportunity to ask me questions on our Facebook group, and join in a live coaching session when you’re ready. Suggest you start the course online first, talk with me later.
BodyChance as a school will continue to transform. Can you say the same about your practice?
Because at the core of what we do is teach people how to adapt; it would be hypocrisy if the you did not follow your own philosophy.
People in suffering – broke, depressed and without hope – can find hope in adaptation. Hope lives in leaving behind the past and creating a new future.
It is simple, but it not easy. It takes courage, support and vision.
You have that potential.
To unlock it, you need first to understand deeply – how do I change my practice? What is necessary for me to adapt to these extraordinary times?
Everything in apply Alexander’s Discovery to life can be applied to building your business too.
ANYWAY – if you’re ready, jump to the page and order the course…
