The adaptation effect
It’s not the biggest herd that survives the drought — it’s the one that moves first.
You see it everywhere. Companies that once ruled the market, gone. Tools that built fortunes, forgotten. Ideas that sounded eternal, outdated before the ink dried.
The ground always shifts. Those who last don’t fight the change — they read it. They watch where the dust’s blowing, and turn before it blinds them.
That’s the real edge — not strength, not size. Just the humility to learn faster than things break.
The storm never asks who’s toughest. It only asks who’s paying attention.
