Have you developed a new
skill that can bring life changing
transformation to you and others that you come in contact with? Most of
us, after acquiring a income producing business skills, trend towards
becoming somewhat relaxed in our profession or business as we apply
what was previously learned to produce an income to support our selves
and our families.
I make enough to get by so I'm content
is the mind set.
This type of relaxation can have devastating
effects as markets both local and global travel through their growth
and correction cycles. When markets correct, which is a downward trend
in a economic cycle, or as in the recent housing market, a complete out
right collapse, jobs are lost, businesses are closed and services are
terminated.
Oh Crap! What Know? If this is the response
rendered and possibly the only immediate solution to this new found
debacle of no income, chances are you are one of the millions that
haven't developed new business skills on an on going bases when the
markets were flourishing. You know the old cliché, and it will always
hold true, "what goes up must come down." Make sure that when the
market drops, and positions are terminated you have developed a new set
of skills that will move you forward instead of teetering on the edge
of financial disaster.
Its
never to late to start learning but waiting for financial
disaster to strike before taking action might not be the best
philosophy. It is however, if it is any consolation, the road that most
choose to travel.
The solution. Don't wallow in self pity and don't
put blame on others. It is your problem, you made the choices that got
you where you are at right now. You and you alone have to take full
responsibility. The future is yours and the only thing to do now is
pick yourself up, dust off your pants and get busy creating your new
future. In times of adversity great personal growth occurs and with
this personal growth a new you will emerge that will be stronger and
more confident then before. Its get busy time.
An idea to consider. When searching out
opportunities to develop new skills, it would be wise to choose a some
what different business field or industry to acquire new knowledge and
growth. I had a friend that was a builder and when the market started
turning south and houses weren't selling he decided to get his real
estate license. This didn't prove to be a good move for his immediate
financial future. Choose your new skill wisely.
Developing
multiple skills will make us more valuable in the market
place, more value equals more money, so we should all exercise daily
habits of learning new income producing activities. Being versatile in
different areas of expertise will keep the money flowing in the right
direction, into our bank accounts, when market conditions shift.
