The Great Divide
I don't know about you, but I'm sick of hearing about our recession, or what some are even calling our depression.
How many times have you heard these two words lately? ...
THE ECONOMY.
Yeah, I thought so.
It is clear that a Great Divide is taking place in our country, and it is spreading around the world.
There are two different types of people...
1.
The people who cling to their old values in a world that is changing very quickly, and...
2.
The people who embrace change, learn new skills, and continue to challenge themselves.
Sadly, the great majority of people fall into the first category.
Although I offer no scientific proof, it is clear to me that this represents at least 90% of the general population.
These people wring their hands, watch the news, and just accept the negativity that is being fed to them.
Some of these people get laid off, lose their homes, or get behind on their bills.
Others simply stick to the status quo of their miserable lives as they don't want to rock their boat in the storm.
Clearly, the ones who embrace change will lead very satisfying lives.
This downturn in our economy does open some opportunities, but only for those who can see it, and who do not listen to the constant drone of the media.
In my case, I saw that my Network Marketing business was not growing as it should.
I did not put it aside, but I got involved in real estate investing as a means to hedge my bet.
That was productive, but it did not give me the consistent returns that I was looking for.
I eventually decided to learn how to market on the internet.
I bought courses, met the gurus (personally) and networked a lot.
I became a serious student, and spent months studying, and applying what I had learned.
I eventually ended up in a top-tier Direct Sales opportunity that teaches people how to become serious entrepreneurs.
We teach marketing on the internet, how to change mindset, and how to completely change one's financial picture with proper education.
Of course, this is what a lot of people are looking for, and business could not be better.
However, I'm certain this would not have happened had I not been open to embracing change, and to look for the silver lining within the clouds.
The best part is, I am attracting like- minded individuals, so I rarely even associate with all of the naysayers anymore.
So, let me ask you...
Take a good look at your life.
What camp are you falling into? Please note that you cannot be partially in one camp or another.
You are either embracing change or you are not.
You are either moving forward, or you are not.
This old Baby Boomer has learned a lot of new skills over the last couple of years.
Are you learning new skills? Are you challenging yourself? Are you taking on projects that allow you to make your own economy? I hope so.
I'm rooting for you! To your massive success,
