Disrupt Business As Usual

“Come gather ‘round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You’ll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin’
Then you better start swimmin’
Or you sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin’.” –Bob Dylan

We have heard these words many times before. But, we might have forgotten what they really mean. Take a moment, read the words again. Feel what the words really mean. Try to picture who Bob Dylan tried to speak to. Visualize their reaction as they wonder if these words really target them and if the lyrics will change their perspective and change their life. There’s a connection. A gap between those who need to change and those who realize they need to change.

You are probably chuckling inside because you already think about all the people that stand in the way of progress. Or maybe you’re reflecting on what this means for you, your friends, and family – what it means for your future. Either way, this is a time when there are supposed to be more questions than answers. This gives credit unions purpose. And if we don’t answer all the questions, someone else will set out to uncover the path forward. Maybe it’s easier to leave it alone. Perhaps this really is a puzzle for someone else to solve. But we know you don’t accept that to be true.
