Here’s a great quote from Larry Page, CEO of Google:
“Companies tend to get comfortable doing what they’ve always done, with only a few minor tweaks. It’s only natural to work on the things you know. Minor changes make things obsolete.”

That’s why a clear, powerful vision for the future is so critical. Of course, that should also shape how you invest your time, talent and resources today.
If you spend your time doing what you’ve done the way you’ve always done it, you will eventually plateau and die.
I hope you’re not getting comfortable.
