In a world of constant and rapid change, in a world of constant crisis and turmoil, still, most

things haven't changed.

Welcome to Darren Daly on demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better every day.

I was told the story about a guy that was close to Warren Buffett, and this guy, we'll call him Bob, was driving in Omaha with Buffett in late 2009.

The global economy was crippled at this point, and Omaha was no exception.

Stores were closed and businesses were boarded up as they drove down the street.

Bob said to Buffett, it's so bad right now.

How does the economy ever bounce back from this?

Buffett said, Bob. Do you know what the

best-selling candy bar was in 1962? No, Bob replied. Snickers, said Warren. Bob, do you know what

the best-selling candibar is today? Buffett asked. No, said Bob. Snickers, said Buffett. Then silence. That was the end of the conversation.

Here's the lesson Buffett was giving Bob in case you or Bob didn't just get that Buffett Mike

dropped on you. Focusing on what's never going to change is more important than trying to anticipate

how something might change.

That's a great lesson. It reminds me of something Jeff Bezos said back when Amazon was on

its rise to world domination. Bezo said, I very frequently get the question. What's going to change

in the next 10 years? And that is a very interesting question, he said. It is a very common one.

what's not going to change in the next 10 years?
