The next big thing doesn't wait for every item to be crossed off your to-do list.
The next big thing doesn't wait for you to get your business to a point where you are perfectly organized and optimally staffed.
The next big thing doesn't care about your process or your red tape.
The next big thing pays no heed to your awards or stellar reputation.
The next big thing shows up and moves forward with or without you.
The next big thing rewards an open mind and flexibility.
And just because you may not "get it" doesn't mean it's not happening and that it's not changing the industry (or the world) forever.
