As I look for something going on in the world that's positive everyday, I find it is not an easy thing to do. I look in the newspaper and see that it's the negative "stuff" that apparently sells newspapers. In the entire first section of the paper I found not one positive thing to help overshadow the gloom and doom on almost every page. But in the midst of all this there's a message to be found...
People everywhere on the planet are aware of the global financial meltdown. It's at the forefront of everyone's mind right now as the unemployment figures rise, houses are lost, and businesses struggle to survive. But all of this chaos is causing the world leaders to come together to work on a system of recovery. One newspaper reported that they are working on a "financial new world order" . Could it be that ultimately the world will end up better than it was when this financial meltdown started? Could it be that in the midst of the pain and suffering that many people are experiencing they are being "rebuilt" stronger and more resilient?
I believe we are truly in the midst of creating a new day for people and businesses in the world. We can see that after surviving the Great Depression, that began in 1929, the world came back better and stronger. I believe this rebuilding is happening before our eyes, and it's happening in our small businesses. Creative ideas and solutions are being born on how to become more valuable and customer service oriented in the marketplace. As many big businesses close, small businesses are learning how to fill the void and reach out in new ways to an ever broadening client base.
Yes, it may seem that chaos is everywhere around us, but history has shown us that we can come out of the chaos into a new day and not just survive but thrive, better than before. Let's keep looking for the signs that it's happening, because it is, because we are strong, and because it's time to take back our power and create the world we want - today!
