Thriving…Not Just Surviving

Do you know what General Electric, Hewlett Packard, IBM, and Microsoft have in common? These innovative American Companies all originated during server economical downturns.

Challenging times have served as catalysts for centuries, stirring up the creativity, innovation and accomplishments that we take part in today. But many times when times get tuff and things don’t seem to turn out the way that we thought, we tend to hunker down and put our dreams, hopes, and plans on hold, always waiting for the right time to come once again. We begin to think that if we can just hold on, maybe we can make it through another day, another month, another year.

But this type of thinking begins to develop a Survivalist Mentality.

This is where we stop dreaming, stop planning and stop hoping. We are just trying to maintain the status quo to keep our head above water and just break even.

To be in any type of personally owned business, our dream is not to just break even. All our hope is in breaking through to a new level of accomplishment, to acquire more influence, to rise to new levels of success.

We were born to be “More Than A Conquer.” Yes we all go through the trying times when it seems like the world can be against us. Yet we can just hunker down and wait it out, we can just hang on, and we can just survive. But I want to encourage you to go out and conquer that storm that’s in front of you.

Yes we see many negative news reports that we begin to worry. But I want to encourage you to

begin to think about Thriving and not just surviving. I know that we need to be wise and well balanced, but I don’t believe that we are to pull back and not pursue our dreams, not expect increase, not believe that favor and influence is upon us, all the while just holding on and waiting it out.

When the tuff economical times hit you and your business…Don’t think that you have to hold on and just try to make it through…NO…Dig your heels in the sand and say: “I will not just survive. I will Thrive…”

Make it a great One
