“I don’t have an American Dream anymore. This is survival. I
hope to wake up and this nightmare is over. It’s difficult to find basic
balance anymore, let alone figure out what to go after—be a consultant or look
for a job.”
The future is about innovation. It’s not about how hard you
work. There is a culture change with education. America
Families are going to be living together again. More people
will be walking due to the price of gas; mom & pop stores will come back.
There’s no room for bulk goods. Buying bulk makes you spend more in the moment
when you have limited cash flow. The younger generations want to live in the
cities than in suburbia.
People think you have a disease when you aren’t working.
Those who were not impacted by downsizing due to the Great Recession are too
involved with working to help others. They don’t really get it since they
haven’t experienced a layoff themselves.
“I’m never going to put a job first again. In the past, my
family and relationships suffered from being focused on my job and career. Now,
I won’t let that happen again.”
