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!!

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT - I'm going to call my baby.... Cucumber.

With the recent news that Katie 'Jordan' Price took 6 weeks to name her baby and then come to a final decision it should be called .... Bunny.... I'm left in a state of sympathy (for the child) and anger (towards the mother)

Someone I know had a baby and unfortunatly during the pregnancy the father died. In honour of the father the mother wanted the daughters middle name to be simply one letter. The inital of the fathers first name. This was not allowed. YET we can just pick a random animal and that is an acceptable name for our child.

As a woman, of a certain age, I was a big fan of the Friends sitcom. and i can't lie, after the Princess Consuela Banana Hammock episode, we all thought about changing our name to that..or crap bag, Just for a laugh. But to actually name a poor defenceless child BUNNY... well that just takes the absolute piss.

What actually goes through parents minds when naming their children these stupid names!? Any of you that know me properly will know i'm happy doing my own weird thing with weirder people. I'm not one to follow the rules but this is not one of those areas that I would mess with. Although, after typing the title to this blog, I hope that one day, I meet someone called Cucumber. It just wont be my own child....

Much Love,
