Quote of the Week

"Creativity, innovation and nontraditional ways of solving
problems are feared by noncreative, uninnovative, and traditional
people. It causes them apprehension and consternation. They
cope with their fear by criticizing people who do things
differently.
If nothing can ever change, nothing can ever get any
better! If you don't create new ways to solve old problems, you'll
always be stuck with the old problems."

--from Sweater Design in Plain English, by Maggie Righetti

I've definately run into this problem. Have you?

Take care and have a great weekend!

Yes, some people are afraid of changes, but that's how we get better.

Have a good weekend too!

I agree that this is something to watch out for! It's sometimes so much easier to do things the old, hard way instead of learning a new, easier way.

Change is the only constant that I know...innovation and creativity makes it interesting and reminds us that our brains are still working and makes things interesting.

Most of the time :)
