I see two things ...We think that ‘doing’ is more important than ‘being’. There is so much truth in the saying, “Be the change you want to see in the world”. The other thing I see is that people don’t have the patience for change and partly because they want to see the fruit of their labor in their lifetime but also, in some cases, receive recognition for what they’ve done. What if we knew that change occurs 500-700 years after the seeds have been planted? How many would still go out and plant the seeds, BE the change?
