Hey Media - Quit lying about the Economy

With the economic down-turn among us, I just have one question; Where the heck is the Recession?

I’ve talked to many other business owners and have asked them what they think about the so-called down-turn. Their response is pretty universal – they talk about how the economy is in big trouble and how they’re concerned about the status of the US economy.

I then ask them to tell me about all of the people that they know who are in economic trouble. To my surprise not one of them know of anyone who is having hardships through this so-called economic down-turn.

In fact, every business owner that I talked to say that they are doing surprisingly well. Furthermore, everyone that they are acquainted with either have jobs, don’t need jobs, or are retired.

My next question to them was, “why do you think that the country is in trouble financially?” Not surprisingly they were influenced by television media sources. Shocking!!

Let me tell you something. The U.S. is thriving! I’m saturated with clients and am having trouble keeping up with my route –which means I need to hire more people. If the pool cleaning business is still making money hand-over-fist then so is everyone else! If the country was in such jeopardy, luxuries like paying someone to clean your pool would be the first to go!

So, turn off the Media, put on your entrepreneur face, go out and make some money. Don’t fall into the trap of feeling sorry for a country that isn’t in financial ruin like some would like you to believe.

Be original – Don’t believe the HYPE!
