Yep, that’s it … I have officially designated 2010 as the year of moving beyond the comfort zone.
What does that mean for you?
What challenges can you create for yourself that will take your life, your job, your business – and your website, to a new level.
What are the things that technology has enabled in the last 12 months that might entice you to look differently at what you are doing – and make some changes as a result?
Check out this interview with Mashable’s Pete Cashmore on CNN, and his post about the 10 top trends he forecasts for 2010.
Are you going to be riding Google Wave – or at least one of the first to actually get your head around it and start using it the way its developers conceptualised?
Are you going to take Twitter to the next level for your business?
Will you be ready to take new technologies by the horns and really make them work for you?
Or will you be sitting back waiting for everyone else to take the lead before you make a move.
Stretching ourselves, taking some risks, moving outside the comfort zone of business as usual is key to innovation, growth and progress, particularly when so many have battened down the hatches to weather the recession.
As we have seen in the past, the best companies have emerged out of tough economic times leaner and more creative, more productive than before, to really take the world by storm.
Are you going to be one of those? Or will you be one of those who fall by the wayside because you were too scared to put your toe in the water.
I wish you courage, creativity, commercial nous and great success in 2010 – roll on the new decade!
Happy New Year everyone.
Karen
