"the economy is being reset by technology and a transformation of the market. The trap that many businesses - and investors - will fall into is thinking about things the way they used to be instead of the way they are, or soon will be.
To succeed, you have to liberate yourself from the way things were being done before."
I believe it is vital to look around, talk to people in various industries and acknowledge inefficiencies. I can't imagine any industry not being touched by the "reset". The jobless recovery is real, technology and businesses ability to produce the same amount of goods and services with less people is reshaping not only how we do business, but where we do business.
There was a question (I believe on CNN) posed yesterday "when the economy recovers will you go back to your old spending habits"? I don't know about you, but I think the recovery is a long way off. I am more concerned with embracing where I'm at and working outwards from here.
I hope I am capable of seeing through the smoke this recession has created and find the road ahead. I like to think of myself as insightful and capable. I want to believe there is a better way to serve my clients. I want to believe that I don't need the economy to correct, but that I have the talent to grow in its current state.
Don't wait for the economy to reset, retool your mind, set sail on today's stormy sea's in search of uncharted waters.
