Tear it down

Tear it down, then what? What goes in its place?

It’s far easier to say ‘tear it down’ or ‘I don’t like that’ than to propose something else.

It’s substantially more positive and rewarding, to create an alternative, even if it is hard work initially.

Different options, if inspirational, motivate action and long lasting change.

You can not change by using criticism, you can by providing another choice that is not reliant on referencing how bad what is already there is.

Ignore what you do not like, and build an alternative that others can be inspired by.

Tear it down leads to being anti rather than pro something you believe to be better.

After all, it is all opinion.

Stats and stories 


Do as much research as you like, get as many stats as you want. Add some pie charts, graphs, data and as many factual pieces as you can gather. 

Nothing beats the story, the human part, the thing that we can relate to, empathise with, imagine being there. 

We are humans not machines. We don’t need more stats, we need more stories. 

Tell yours with the passion it deserves, as we all have something worthy of sharing.
