SEC Notice 25/2005 - Are we investing in the future
or living in the past?
So many people in this world have come to
believe that they are locked into their life pattern ...yet, new
perception choices can truly set us free. — Chelle Thompson, Editor of
Inspiration Line
One's philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the
choices one makes ... and the choices we make are ultimately our
responsibility. — Eleanor Roosevelt, Wife of U.S. President, Activist
and UN Diplomat (1884-1962)
It took me many years to fully embrace the concept that every moment in
my life offered a door ... all I had to do was CHOOSE. No matter the
outcome, my choices turned out to be The Good News. — Chelle Thompson,
Editor of Inspiration Line
Each choice we make causes a ripple effect in our lives. When things
happen to us, it is the reaction we choose that can create the
difference between the sorrows of our past and the joy in our future. —
Chelle Thompson, Editor of Inspiration Line
Be ready when opportunity comes...Luck is the time when preparation and
opportunity meet. — Roy D. Chapin Jr.

1. Are we building the right system solutions? - or are we (much more
likely) focused strictly on yesterday's needs. Check out this article on
the leading edge research regarding the "next revolution" in business
practices.
i.e. for success in TOMORROW'S world we need to support the tacit worker
in their efforts to be effective (in complex interactions) - are your IT
investments reflecting this need. (Worded differently)
Is IT investing in the future or living in the past?

3. Bottom line - We need to get IT spending
right.
(which is a planning issue).

4. Finally, are you investing in knowledge
solutions?
