I have been reading a lot about the economy lately and finding that economically speaking things are starting to get better. The one area that is least desired is the job market and economic and political pundits from the right and the left are blaming each other for the numbers being too high. Yes, it is true that the unemployment rate is as high as I have ever seen it and yes it is true that it could go even higher. However, what is going on is that we in this country are missing the proverbial point.
This message is for the American people only and the message is get off the duff and become an entrepreneur. It just does not make any sense to complain about your situation because that job that you had 3 months ago is probably not coming back. What I will tell you is this your job probably went to an entrepreneur that can do it better, cheaper, and more cost efficient to your former employer. That entrepreneur is probably in China, India or even in Canada and the fact of the matter is this you have become complacent and lazy and expected to get everything you want for nothing simply because you are an American. Let's face facts the world has changed and we must change with it. the changes that are happening is that competition has become even more fierce than ever before and a lot of those jobs you once had are going elsewhere and they are going to motivated educated people.
How is your education portfolio? I guess that just being an American is just not enough anymore. that is good becuase where ther is pain there is change and change means innovation. I don't know about you but this recession has been the greatest thing that has ever happened to this country of ours. It has made us uncomfortable and that is when real action happens. Those of you who are unemployed, underemployed, or worried about your job you must think ouside of yourself and become an entrepreneur. This is where the real action is and you could be right in the middle of it. Believe me this is the best decision you could make in a time like this and the best time to become one is now!
