We have our heads in the sand for what is on the horizon.
In short what appears to be the case is that we have a reluctance to share
the responsibilities of a youth nation.
We want to continue to play in the sand pit of life building our castles and laughing in the Sun.
That’s not seeing a bigger picture of reality.
Look around. The sound principles of planning for our future have been forgotten.
The focus on our humanity is being lost and as a result so will we.
You can’t “whack” a band aid on our future.
The future has a way of rearing up when you don’t expect it and biting us on the backside.
We can either put an overarching vision in place or face the consequences of a volatile world that doesn’t give a tinkers toss about you and your family’s wellbeing.
In short we can’t live on a sunny island in the Pacific ignoring the rest of the world.
That is the bigger picture. We need to embrace this reality.
Previous Governments have not given us vision and so it was/is our duty to put people in charge who will plan for our future. A warning is being made not only to governments but the corporates and also each of us as individuals. If we don't set our own plan forward most assuredly others will.
Real leaders know what is needed to initiate vision.
You can bet that quietly they have a huge question mark above their heads pondering whether you would help or support them in doing this.
Wanting our problems to go away and sort themselves out is not being realistic.
It all comes down to work. There’s no other way.
For a leisure programmed nation that appears to be anathema.
That is why leaders hesitate. That is why too many others hesitate. Get used to being out of your comfort zone. The only choice is whether yoo want to be in charge of your life direction or whether you are going to let others drag you screaming in their decided direction.
Joe Biden when US President talked about finding a backbone.
If you want a future that makes you happy then you are going to have to make it happen yourself.
We need a vision taking us forward.
If we keep treading water we will drown. Neville
