With the United States Economy in turmoil, affecting the world economy, should you be recession proofing or recession free? What do I mean by that? Well, in my lifetime (now I know I'm getting old by saying that) there have been three sets of economic upticks and downturns.
What have I learned about the three sets? First, they come in sets of "ups" and "downs". So the good news there is every time there has been bad times they have been followed by good times, so no need to worry. Second, all three have centered around major election years so it a coincidence or a conspiracy. Well I think it is a coinkydink, but all the while the politicians are so full of crap, talking about what "they" will do. What they'll do when elected is ride it out, then claim they made a HUGE difference, what a load of horseh**. Then what can you do, what is the only true solution?
Ultimately it is to be recession free. How do you accomplish that? Well to be financially free, meaning to have enough money that the skyrocketing costs of gas, food and utilities catch your attention (on the news or in the papers) but they don't make a dramatic impact on you or your life. It's like when you go to a very fancy restaurant, there are no prices, just the entrees. If you price looked to decide what to eat, you'd eat chicken every day, the same with gas and utilities. If you are focused on the three and there prices you are not focused on something else and besides, that is living the life of scarcity. Rather, there is gas, there is food and there are utilities I can purchase, so to make my life more comfortable or opulent, I'm buying them regardless of cost.
Forget recession proofing, that's a sales tactic, it's already here upon you (if you believe in that). Rather, make your life recession free. In other words, you create your own economy that won't be affected by a world power's recession, threat thereof, or impact from it. There's only one thing that solves a recession anyway and that's consumer confidence and spending.
Plain and simple, when consumer confidence is high, we buy more junk. When we buy more the economy benefits from the added buying in taxes, jobs, and more confidence, so people buy even more and bigger ticket items or junk. Plain and simple we the people are the economy!
You are a "people", yes? So if the people create the economy, create your own economics. Be a leader, and don't follow what the Hippocratic politicians would like you to believe it so they can secure your vote with fear, if you are American. Don't be worrying about things that are not going to happen. Stay focused on creating your own life, your own passive income, your own multiple income streams which all ends up being your own economic security.
The first place to start is by getting your finances under control, then creating your financial security or stability plan, then the march toward financial freedom. The problem is that most people never take step one: getting your finances under control and that's where a coach comes in to help. Perhaps even a Financial Coach may be needed if the debt load is big ($10K to 40K) or even a credit counselor if you are $50K or worse in the hole with short term debts like many credit cards. What's your personal economy like if you have 9 credit cards (the average these day) with and average balance of $8,546 on each card or -$76,914 (ouch).
If you are living on your cards you are killing your economy and may never dig out. The interest alone on that balance at even as low as 6% (which nobody can get these days) is $4,614, a killer number for many. Can you see that this will NEVER work? Good, then stop being a victim and start thinking about how to change this mess and move forward and if you are tunnel-visioned now on only the eminent doom ahead, especially now that filing for bankruptcy is so much harder, then you'll need assistance from a personal coach, business coach or financial coach. Someone you can trust to help you create the disciplines necessary to stop the bleeding.
The pressures that get created when an individual sabotages their own finances affects EVERY area of your life in a negative way. It affects your happiness, your relationships, your fun, your attitude, your confidence, your children, your friends, EVERYONE and EVERY THING! So get help from a coach who can get you corrected and back on track. It's possible and has been done before but you will need to reach down deep and alter the bad habits that somehow got created.
There's no time for delays or research. Every day is you have debt it gets deeper, harder to climb out underneath from and the interest rates are killing you. And the worst part is your bank and or credit card vendors want you right there - that's their sweet spot. Have you noticed the profits these guys pull down? It's in the Billions with a "B"! So they know EXACTLY what they are doing, how to get you in that spot, and worse KEEP YOU THERE!
Enough isn't it? You must now take the first bold step in creating your won economics! That starts with Phase I: Getting your spending under control, only investing in things that you can't do yourself or get yourself and those things should appreciate in value or money, creating more money for you in the end. You have a choice in the matter of investing in yourself and your future or not. So:
Invest wisely!
To Your Greater Success!
