We've made a mistake, lets go back...

I was talking to a good friend of mine tonight and the conversation wandered in to science and space. Not literally, because we'd both be dead, but you get the point.

We began to ponder weither or not there is an end to space and what is beyond it. As you'll have learnt at school, space is a vacuum. a big bunch of nothing. This lead to me pointing out that maybe all the laws of nature could be wrong.

Bare with me, I have a business related point at the end!

Think about it for a minute.. Every law of nature, weither it be scientific, physical, natural etc have been determined and interprited by man. Sir Isaac Newton was chilling out under a tree one day and an apple fell on his head, after a bit of thinking, and a few experiments he came up with Newtons Law of Universal Gravitation. Brilliant! We have an answer for why stuff bonks us on the head... dig around a bit deeper and we understand (Thanks to Sir Newton) that the moon is involved, acceleration and velocity join in and there's a whole gravity party going on, on planet earth.

This is obviously just a small part of the laws of nature. This happened in the 1600's, before most of us were born and a little after the dinosaurs died out.

My point is, we've moved on... a lot! Look at how long we thought the world was flat! then we discovered it wasn't and all sorts of new and wonderful things happened! So wouldn't it be smart if we questioned all these laws? I believe we are powerful beyond our imaginations and we're dumbing ourselves down because we accept other peoples interpritation to a discovery because it's worked for 400 or so years.

So my business point... Because it's worked for the last 4 decades doesnt meant that it is right for your business now and taking your business forward. We need to challenge what we know and change the norm in order to push forward in to the new and exciting. It's going to be scary, we'll mess up, we'll make mistakes, but thats how Newton became a legend and how, 100's of years after his death i'm writing about some dude being hit on the head with an apple.  GO QUESTION STUFF!!
