Excited for 2015 – inspiration

New Year’s Eve is an excellent time to think about what’s next and while doing that today I could not shake the memory of the opening to The Bugs Bunny Show – not because next year will be a cartoon, nor because it will be a fight between a duck and a rabbit, nor because it will be frivolous.

I’m thinking of the opening to The Bugs Bunny Show because of the lyrics to the song. 2015 will be a year of extraordinary change for newsagents as a number of factors come to a head and intersect. No more rehearsing and nursing a part. While there will be challenges, there will be more opportunities. On with the show this is it.

Yes, thisis it resonates with me – 2015 is the year many of us will define our businesses beyond what has been traditional. It’s a year we get serious for ourselves.

I feel optimistic about 2015 because of the decisions we can make that will define our businesses for many years to come. But more on that later.

Here’s some inspiration for you if you are thinking abut next year:

For what it’s worth – I rate The Bugs Bunny Show as the best cartoon of its type from the 1960s.

    Yeah, I loved The Jetsons too – better than The Flinstones.
