# Heads in the Sand

The signs surround all of us.

We’re getting older each day.

AI is coming for existing white collar jobs in a big way.

Anti-Semitism is rising. Radical Islamists have a violent anti-Western philosophy.

Central bank fiat currencies all trend to zero over the long-term.

Yet, few choose the hard path of pre-emptive, pro-active change.

It’s scary.

It hurts.

It’s hard.

And what if you’re wrong?

You might be.

But recovering from that is easier than ignoring the one constant in life: change.

The head in the sand feels safer, but the safer choice is to force the change upon yourself…before the change is forced upon you.
