Mining companies are justifiably excited about technologies like automation, mixed reality, digital twinning, and more. In addition, mining companies are being squeezed by some of the labor and supply chain issues facing nearly every industry today, creating pressure to cut costs and get more ore from existing mines. The right kind of connectivity, and the right kind of network, purpose-built for a rugged environment like mining, is critical to achieving the efficiency and safety results a smart mine can bring. And it won’t be enough to simply connect these devices to wireless (or fixed) broadband. That’s a sign that companies know digitalization in mining is the future.īut all the new use cases and exciting smart technologies have one thing in common – they need to be powered by fast, reliable, and secure connectivity solutions. The global mining equipment market is expected to grow to $125.7 billion by 2025, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5% from 2021-2025, driven by increased adoption of smart technologies like automation and remote-controlled machinery. Andy.The smart mine is the mine of the future. Keep up the great, motivational work! Thanks. Having survived cancer, the recession of 2007, and the housing crash of 2008, I now believe more than ever in the power of adrenalin and belief, which should enable anyone to ‘Dare, Prepare and Jump’ – even if it takes little steps to start. Adrenalin is the essence of individual human achievements, and belief makes it happen. Fact is, ‘One Big Step’ is all about the stuff that most Writers should have coursing through their veins: the need to go the ‘extra mile’ in the creative process, to ‘Believe that Something Extraordinary CAN happen’, and use that ‘Milk of the Gods’, which is adrenalin!Īdrenalin and belief is what creates great Rockstar performances like those of Freddie Mercury, great Sporting achievements like those of the recent Olympic Superstars, great Scientific breakthroughs by our leading Scientists. I liken its essence to ‘Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway’ – a famous inspirational self-help motivational book of the 80’s (or 90’s.?). Positive, enlightening and inspirational. Realize that the net can never give you 100% certainty. To work out the kinks and understand all the angles. Understand your net.įelix Baumgartner and Red Bull started working on their legendary space jump in 2005, and didn’t actually make the jump until this week in 2012. That is a lousy maxim when you’re heading for the ground at over 800 miles an hour.īuild your net. I hate the saying, “Leap, and the net will appear.” Solving problems, gaining knowledge, pushing out experiments … this is what being a human being is about. This is what pulls you out of bed in the morning so you can get started on the next milestone. This is what you’ll look back on later with great fondness and a hell of a grin on your face. This is what most people call “the hard part.”

Work out the problems that come up at 10,000 feet before you climb to 128,000. Your dream probably isn’t something you can do all at once. (If you did, it would just be a “pretty big” dream, which isn’t as much fun.) You probably don’t know everything you need to know to make your breathtaking dream happen. The greater the mission, the more preparation you’re going to need.

If you’re planning a jump from 128,100 feet that will take your body up to 833.9 miles per hour in free fall … you’re going to need to do some prep. Whether you create your dream exactly the way you see it in your head isn’t the point. Once you’ve let yourself dream about something really big, the rest of it is logistics.

It’s part terrifying and part exhilarating. One of the great things about working with Brian Clark is that he doesn’t really have much knack for doing little projects. If you’re going to build something - a business, a blog - that takes our breath away, it has to take your breath away first. Whatever you’re building - if it’s worth building - you’ll go through three phases. Because a commitment to doing something great - something that makes us catch our breath a little - will take you farther than anything else will.īut you don’t build something epic just by getting a wild hair. If you do have a secret dream, congratulations. Maybe you’ve worked up the courage to want to do something epic.Įven if you haven’t shared that dream with anyone yet.
