    "I've just taken a quick look at what's trending on Twitter right now"


TRENDS.

Each week, Jimmy Fallon picks a topic and then asks his studio and view audience to post something with a certain "#hashtag" or pound sign for all of you north of 40.  Usually within hours whatever the topic, it is trending globally.  

THAT is the power of Celebrity, Social Media and TRENDS.

Right now, this is what is trending now on Social Media:
  • North Korea and the United States
  • Game of Thrones
  • The Trump Administration
  • Confederate States of America
  • Taylor Swift
  • Tiger Woods
  • Bruno Mars
  • Bachelor in Paradise
  • and a few others.....
What or who determines these things?

I guess some of it is what is happening and how others are reacting to it.  I would love to see what was "TRENDING" when I was say 6-7.  

1972.  Mark Spitz.  Munich.  Israel.  Terrorists.  

Countries; Sports Figures; Humanity doing the unthinkable.

Not much has changed in 45 years....except in today's day of quick information, we know about it right away.

How can we change the TREND?  How can we change the "general direction" of something?

If we want to truly change the direction....change the TREND...WE have to be the ones that start the new TREND.

It's more that just a HASHTAG.  It's changing the CULTURE through TRANSFORMATION.

It's ACTION.

In your BEST YEAR YET, what do you want to see change?  

Whatever it is....let the TREND start with YOU!
