Enantiodromia

There are ideas that shout. Enantiodromia is not one of them. It waits quietly until the day you need it.

The idea is simple, and like most simple ideas it is easy to nod at and hard to use. The nod is free. The use costs attention, every day, in small change.

Time is the one currency the Reserve Bank does not print more of. The idea has done its job if, the next time it happens to you, you smile before you react.
