As we move through life, this is a very profound statement. My children cannot remember black and white TV's or TV's without remotes. I remember when a fax machine was unbelievable to me and now they are basically obsolete. I got behind on the technology several years ago and resisted the changes for several years. Getting caught up has been really hard for me. I have felt learning disabled for a very long time. Recently I got a PDA and really worked on getting up to speed on social networking, scanning, marketing online, and most of my communication online. It has saved me so much time and energy. The efficiency and professionalism is really impressive. I also realize we have barely touched the surface of what is out there and what is left to come.
I think back on what has been invented since I was a teenager- #1 computers, cell phones, flat panel TV's, air conditioning everywhere and in cars too, garage door openers, microwaves, remote and keyless entry devices, wireless alarms, cordless phones, double pane windows, leaf blowers, and on and on and on. It truly does make me feel old, but also very grateful that I have lived in a time of so many wonderful inventions to make life enjoyable and easier.
What did you not have as a teenager? Your children? Your parents? Where is this headed 10 years from now? 20 years from now? We are so lucky to be in a business where we can really benefit and take advantage from these changes as they come.
