Action has two parts, implementation and monitoring Contents Today is tomorrow's history Planning Action follows planning Entry, contracting, and preparation Preplanning for planning for change Today is tomorrow's history With few exceptions, intentional change is future change. The present is already determined by its past. As individuals and organisations and communities,we carry much of our history with us. However, what we do today can make future change easier or harder to achieve. Today is determined by its history.
Today is part of tomorrow's history.
We are imprisoned in the present. And it turns into the past even while we experience it. This is the change agent's first dilemma. For the most part we can change only the future. We have direct access only to the present.
