Last week the British voted to leave the European Union, aka Brexit. Reports say the decision was set in stone. I don’t get that statement. I believe nothing is set in stone.There are always options and opportunities for change. It’s all about the mindset, whether in the political landscape or your personal lives.

We can close borders and isolate or build bridges and connect. We can maintain a stony silence and allow things to happen whether we agree with them or not. Or we can speak out and facilitate change. Inertia keeps us stonewalled.  Creativity and action can build paths to new destinies.

In life we need to feel free to ask questions and not always accept the first answer, the first offer or the first option. I learned this researching cancer doctors, negotiating contracts and deciding what my next steps would be after closing my first company.

Nothing is set in stone unless you allow it to be. I believe stones should not be barriers. They should be stepping stones. We shouldn’t be throwing stones in anger; we should be using them as building blocks. Stones are powerful forces of energy.

If you don’t like the setting, rearrange the stones.
