In both business and life, it’s natural to want things to improve. However, as the saying goes, "progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything," if we want to make improvements, we must make active steps to make that happen. Simply repeating the same actions will not lead to new, desired results.

While many may be satisfied with the status quo, even the most successful businesses need to continually make small improvements, refinements, and reforms. Without this, their success may fade over time, and risk losing their competitive edge. In today’s rapidly changing society, the ability to continuously adapt is crucial. Every aspect of our environment, from technological advancements to shifting customer needs and market trends, is constantly evolving.

So, what specifically should we change, and how should we go about it? The first step in finding the answer is to thoroughly understand your current situation. It’s also essential to identify the gap between our current state and the goals we want to achieve, or the needs of our customers. This gap identifies where change is necessary, and where to focus.

For example, we can incorporate customer feedback to improve products and services, review and streamline business processes to increase efficiency, or adopt new technologies to enhance competitiveness. However, the most important thing is not just to change for the sake of change but to have a clear purpose behind it. When the purpose is clear, the change becomes truly valuable and serves as a driving force for the growth of the entire organization.

As business leaders, it is our responsibility to constantly reassess the current situation, identify necessary changes, and take bold action. I encourage you to be mindful of the "things that need to change" in your daily work and make a conscious effort to implement those changes. Instead of repeating the same actions, let’s work together to build organizations that continuously evolve by looking at things from new perspectives.

 

I’ll be in San Diego one week from today. During my visit, I’ll be meeting with our San Diego team, visiting some customers, and connecting with new people. I’m also looking forward to enjoying some great food, especially Mexican and Italian cuisine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This morning, I was at Costco and was surprised to see that Halloween goods are already on display. Halloween is on October 31st, which is still two and a half months away. It feels a bit too early for this, doesn't it? While I understand that stores like to get a head start on holiday promotions, seeing Halloween items out in early August seems premature. It makes me wonder if we’re rushing through the seasons too quickly, not giving ourselves enough time to enjoy the present before moving on to the next big event. I suppose it’s all about marketing and getting people in the mood for the upcoming holidays, but it does feel like we’re fast-forwarding through the year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Due to the issue we had with the Ford Mustang Mach-E, we had it towed to the Ford dealership on August 1. However, we have not received any updates on its status for more than a week. I visited the Ford dealership this morning to get an update. The person in charge of my car's service was not available, but I was able to speak with someone else. He informed me that they are currently working on the High Voltage Battery Junction Box and addressing other recalls. I requested that they provide us with regular updates.

Looks like Kamala Harris seleced her running mate. I am not politically active but I am nopt happy with (1) Current Ecomony (Cost of Living), (2) War in both Ularina and Gaza, (3) Mass Illigail Migration, (4) Higher Taxes, (5) Free Tax Momey Goveaway by The Governmmet (Student Loan Forgiveness). None of which existed until the current administartion. If the Kamala Harris thinks we are doing just fine, I am not buying it.
