Take Charge of Your Own Life

An excert from a post on self improvement, this I will admit is one of the few writers I have subscribed to as I really get the feeling he is talking to you from experience. All too many times people who write about self improvement tend to 'talk down' to their readers, this writer does not, he is honest and open, he writes about things that a 'normal' person can relate to,


This is the mindset that you need to acquire if you are going excel in these trying times. It is obvious that the world is in a turmoil like we never saw before. Economically, we might be confronted with the worst situation in the last 3 generations. There is little that is encouraging about what is coming down the road. The prevailing belief is that times will get worse before they get better.

Take all the people who worked in the financial sector. Hundreds of thousands of them lost their jobs because of the financial crisis. Even if they were superior employees, they are out looking for work. Another example is the automobile industry. People operated under the belief the union would take care of them. Sadly, if the companies go out of business, the employees are out of luck.
