The Crazy Economy

(Originally posted on October 6th 2008)

Hi,
Great to write to you once again.

Oh boy... what the heck is going on? Is the sky falling? Are we all in trouble? It depends on how you look at it. If all the politicians came out and said

"We have an economic challenge ahead of us, we all need to take a step back and evaluate the situation. So all of us need to see how each of us can make sure we keep our house in order, and your federal government will take a wise approach to resolve this situation."

But NO! What did we hear? "This is a disaster" "It's the greatest failure since the Great Depression" "The stock market will crash" "Everyone will lose!"

So what happened? People pulled their money out of the market, the market goes down, and everyone loses.

So how do we resolve this situation. We have to start with ourselves. In any situation, we have to take a moment to look at what is going on and look for a positive resolve. "Ok, here is the situation, what result do I want out of it?"

See, you take control of your emotions, understand the situation, put the question of a positive result, and you are now on your way to getting real answers.

Now in the case of this economy, or as some call it, "A Recession" what do you do? Get a recession-proof business. What? Yes. That way you don't have to deal with the changes of the economy.

"Dave, where do I find that?" Glad you asked. That's what Real Big Goals is all about. Once you are recession-proof, then you can get on with your life, put your ideas and family first, and never worry again about money.

I look forward to your comments as always!
