INEVITABILITY
Dear Reader.
The feeling that something is going to happen, no matter how hard you try to avoid it, is often referred to as the state of inevitability!
Have you ever put on a brand new white shirt or top to attend an important business lunch and at the time thought "I must be careful not to get any food on it." And, no matter how incredibly careful you are, at the end of the meal you discover a food stain down your front. Obviously had you been wearing older or darker clothes, this simply wouldn´t have happened. But, the decision to wear a new white shirt or top to help you "standout from the crowd" made the chances of this unsightly food stain appearing virtually inevitable!

However, inevitability also manifests itself in different ways.

Perhaps you´ve sat on a half empty bus or free seat allocation plane and you instantly know that the 160kgs giant, who´s squeezing himself through the door, is determined to sit next to you. It happens because it´s completely inevitable!
But, on a more serious note, inevitability doesn´t always have to be a bad thing!
Following the inevitable end of our summer vacations we are very pleased to bring you our September edition of e-matters, which includes our latest news and also inevitably highlights some top tips to help you in your business.
