It’s like you can’t avoid the word right now. No matter what you are doing, where you are at, or who your with this word keeps coming up. Economy, economy, economy! It’s typically said nowadays with disgust and contempt. The election would make you think that an individual can fix it. But what is the economy? and How does it relate to your personal potential?
The economy is people interacting.
So why do people say either the economy is good or bad? That is like saying vocabulary is bad. The economy is nuetral. The economy is ‘bad’ in many minds right now because someone told them that it was bad. Many fail to realize what we are really saying when we blame the economy.
“Its not my fault.”
This is what we love to say and think. We blame the economy for our choices. Is it possible things are different now than 20 years ago because we made choices along the way? The economy is reflecting many peoples choices from months and years ago. There is still plenty of opportunity out there. We are so afraid to utilize our own talents and abilities so we start pointing the finger at what is going on outside of us. Who controls the economy? YOU!
You control your potential.
Can an economy stop your personal potential? No. So why do we let it stop us so much? Because we fear our own potential. We are afraid to be powerful forces economically. We want to blame someone else for our bad decisions. What do we do? Please leave your comments on practical ways to increase our potential and capitalize on our abilities.
