Jim Kukral's blog this morning pointed me back to a Chris Brogan blog post I'd saved for reading later...uh, since I'm so busy making excuses, actually using some of these - 25 Excuses You Can Have During the Recession | chrisbrogan.com
With the stock market up 700 points with 20 minutes left before close, I think we're all feeling a little more giddy than we were when it closed on Friday. So, it should be slightly easier to avoid making excuses.
The consensus on Friday was that the market was falling due to people's fears and nothing based in fact. Basically, the world is going to hell in a hand basket and I might as well save as much as I can before I lose it all.
Excuses!
Excuses don't just hold you back during a recession. Excuses are the line of least resistance. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, but then again, nothing lost, right? Wrong! As Wayne Gretsky said, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."
So, stop making excuses! That goes for me, too!
More soon!
