Just a look into hope.
Lately, we have all been bombarded with images, thoughts, and concepts of fear. From our economy, to the job outlook, to health, etc. If u turn on the TV or Ipad news app you are hit with multiple images of what could go wrong. So I wanted to put a couple of hope options out there for you with more to follow.
Of course, any book of faith will get you there, but to deal with contemporary examples I offer Inc., Fast Company, and Entrepreneur magazines. Why? Because the solutions for our unemployment problems will not come from GM, Dow, or any other fortune 500 hundred company. The faith, hope, daring, and fortitude that it takes to get us and the world out of this is the sole realm of the entrepreneur and it always has been. 85-90% of us are employed by entrepreneurs and it’s been consistent for decades.
I just hope those in the SBA and the like fight to get our tax dollars into the hands of these entrepreneurs and the new upcoming breed so that we can train and shine our faith on everyone. Until then, next time you are thinking about turning on the tv for your daily dose of fear, pick up a book about, read a program documenting, or speak with your resident entrepreneur. He or she will give you what you really are looking for…….HOPE!
Peace and love

This is great advice! My observation is that the average individual tends to gravitate toward the easiest solution – which (within the context of your message) is to get another job (if one is lost). Why? Because the mortgage/rent, car note and utilities are due TOMORROW. You, on the other hand, are challenging the “employee minded” to start a business. Many have probably thought about it, but find it difficult to get started. So, in addition to your emphasis on faith, hope and fortitude, another challenge would be for one to discover his/her passion. Passion breeds energy; and energy is fuel for the motivation required to discover how to begin a new beginning.
Peace!
