As I teach, so do I learn: Flux

Inspired by Simon Terry’s Orderly Processions are Over, the MAV Grad Dip Cohort crafted their own post on the tension between change and stability.

 Change makes me nervous and anxious, stability makes me happy and safeChange excites and energises, stability can make me boredChange is constant. Stability is static.Change is the ocean. Stability is the bay.Change encourages innovation – stability keeps innovation honest.Change tries to krump, and attempts interpretive dance. Stability choreographs the Viennese Waltz.Change rides a mountain bike, stability circles the velodrome.Change is a smartphone, stability the surety of a handshake.Change loops, and tangles, reckless and furious. Stability boasts of clean linear incremental progress.If stability is the freeway, change is the roundabout.Change has options, but stability offers wisdom With each we see contradictory forces that complement each other. Can’t have one without the other. Embrace the interdependence Engage the duality Flux. Related posts: As I teach, so do I learn: 1  and As I teach, so do I learn: 2
