When the Improbable Happens
So Does a Different Future
by Yannick Roudaut
The only sure thing is the improbable and it opens up doors to other, unforeseen opportunities… In the spring of 2020, the improbable happened. The unthinkable too: the world economy came to a halt. Who could have imagined that? Nobody. But now we know that an off switch does indeed exist. The economic collapse was not destiny, it was a choice. History is a succession of improbable events that come one after the other that lead to a future that was unimaginable just a few months earlier. Each shock, every illness, must be considered as indicators to rectify humanity’s mortifying trajectory. Each crisis is an opportunity to learn something that will allow for innovation, to think differently, to reevaluate our relationship with time, work, money and others. In nature, every constraint is a source of innovation. Humanity must learn to find inspiration in order to self-correct its path to a different, better future.
