<p>My wife is coming home from L.A. today, and it is my duty to get to the airport on time.  This entails keeping constant tabs on when her flight is leaving and arriving from her linking flight, Chicago.  It is very <strong>annoying / time consuming</strong> to have<strong> </strong>to go to the airlines flight status website and sign in time and time again in order to get up to the date info on her flight.  <strong>Instead use this tric</strong><strong>k</strong>:  <em>Simply type the <strong>Airline </strong>and the <strong>Flight Number</strong> into the Google search bar, and Google will give you the departure and arrival times for that flight in it&#8217;s search engine</em>.  Pretty nifty.  Google&#8230;making my life simpler one application at a time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Visionaries know that in order to make the transition from <a href="http://www.jimcollins.com">good to great</a> they must be willing to first attempt and be successful at change.  This is not about casual change or change for the sake of change or a political campaign.  This is about change for the sake of growth and improving both business and life.</p>
<p>If we ever expect our life or our company or our church or our relationships to progress to the next level; if we desire that our marriage develops into new realms of trust and love; if we ever expect to reach out and impact a broader market; if we want to put that latest great idea into action; if we want to be rich; if we want to help as many as possible; if we want to give it all away; if we want to decrease our negative environmental impact; then change is absolutely necessary.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-311" title="bulb_old_new" src="http://parkejladd.files.wordpress.com/2008/12/bulb_old_new.jpg?w=300" alt="bulb_old_new" width="243" height="176" /></p>
<p>Why did <a href="http://www.facebook.com/people/Parke-Ladd/29706944">Facebook</a> revamp its entire layout?  Why did <a href="http://www.wordpress.com">WordPress</a> totally turnover its Dashboard?  <strong>Why, when millions of people worldwide use your product or service every day, would you ever want to change a single thing!? </strong><em>Here is why:  They want to get better</em>.  Why did <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs">Steve </a>turn machine Mac into musical <a href="http://www.apple.com">Apple</a>?  He knew that in order for the company to grow (to be the best in the world!) it had to change, to be the change.  Why does <a href="http://www.google.com/intl/en/options/">Google</a> come out with a new <a href="http://www.google.com/apps/">application </a>almost daily (or so it seems)?  They realize that in order to stay on top, they must keep doing what got them there in the 1st place:  <strong>promote and initiate change.  Every year these companies change the way we do and see everything.</strong></p>
<p>Want to get better at anything?  Get better at being willing to change.  Want to become a Visionary?  Train yourself to see the change <a href="http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2008/12/lesson-learned.html">before </a>it happens and take advantage of it.</p>
