Everyone voted for change in US couple of weeks ago. But another change has stormed in many lives. The storm has been gathering for quite some time and now it is here. First it was inflation, then food and fuel crisis and now global economic slowdown.
From Japan to US everyone is affected. Many people are losing their jobs and are preparing budget lists. Some have given up all hope and are even contemplating suicide while some have taken that escape route to oblivion. Graphs may dip further; epicenter of storm has not yet passed. Now is the time of fear, also the time to be brave. Now is the time to switch tracks and make place for change, takeovers and makeovers.
Best solace in difficult times comes from pearls of wisdom from experienced people and philosophy of wise men and women. Hard times can inspire and motivate as well. Maybe it is the time for that pause and deep breath to figure out where one is headed and what one wants to be. Innovate and find the hidden solutions. Manufacturing, marketing, advertising is not just about selling for profit. It is also about focusing on products, which can add value to customer’s life and not just subtract cash. Remember slow and steady wins the race. Be a turtle.
How much do you want to bet with that the number of religious people is growing in these days? When times like this arrives, people lost faith in themselves and in humanity. Sad, but true.
