As we know from Bhuddism, it is important not to get too attached to
outcomes. As we know from Taoism, there’s yang – success – and there’s yin –
disaster, and as things go up, they also go down. Yet it’s hard as a human
being not to get excited by events when they go well, and I personally never
want to be impervious to the power of my own emotions: they energise, and even
negative ones, properly understood, can lead to strength.
Motivational Maps Ltd., my company, has just had a phenomenal week. Our
first international licensees have just completed their training in the UK. I have to
say, if I had been asked to predict which country would your first
international licensees come from, then I would not have said, ‘South Africa’.
I might have said the USA,
or Canada, possibly Australia, but
that was not to be. And, in the light of what has happened – which has been
perfect – all that has happened in right.
What, of course, makes it all so very exciting is not merely the
commercial opportunity, as great as that is: an exclusive license to develop
Motivational Maps throughout the breadth of that great country, but the people
themselves. As we encountered each other at Gatwick Airport,
I hit if off immediately with Mariana and Marcel Bergman: fantastically
energetic and motivated people already, and with the added benefit of being on
a mission.
I learned as I drove them down to Bournemouth – the home of Motivational
Maps, as they told me – that South
Africa was a superb country but one suffering
from a major talent drain: perhaps up to 450,000 highly knowledgeable and
skilled workers emigrating because of unrest. Thus, for those who remain,
difficulties and despair – if the South Africans needed anything, it was
motivation. Hence the visit. And for me, what a motivating idea: Motivational
Maps being used not just to help a business, but at root to help a country and
its people.
Perhaps it sounds too idealistic – but as the good book says, Without
vision, the people perish.
