It is hard to go day without hearing “the economy” as an excuse.

I hear Dave Ramsey and Dan Miller and others reminding their audiences, “you are the economy.”

You and I are the economy.

If you are poor and the economy is rich, you are poor.

If you are rich and the economy is poor, you are rich.

We will all do the economy a favor, by not blaming it.  We must look at the positive.

Times are changing…that is not new.

Businesses are easier to create and the access and cost to create widgets is cheaper as a whole.

True, businesses are cutting back.  When we over spend it will catch up.  It is finally catching up.

The belts are getting tightened.

What I really want to share is the fact we should not use “the economy” as an excuse.  It just gives us something large and not directly touchable to blame.

So instead of blaming “the economy,” let us look at ourselves and at the advantages that comes with it…

K, bye
