Do you feel that YOU are in a recession TODAY?

I asked 9000 people this a few weeks ago on LinkedIn.

77% of the answers were “Yes.”

Admittedly, I was one of the 23%.

Yes, I’m reading everything you’re reading.

I don’t disagree that global economies are not doing well.

I’m not some blind optimist without any sense of caution.

All I’m saying is, what are you accomplishing by saying, “over the next few years the economy and my income will suffer.”

If anything, I’ll accuse you of putting the blinders on.

I agree calculated caution is warranted right now. But, I’m also saying now is the time to roll up your sleeves and do the things that succeeded in the past.

Go all in on these actions.

Recall what you read/heard/saw that is causing you to firmly believe that we (as a group and shared economy) are in a recession.

Was it that person’s/people’s opinion? And, what if they didn’t say that?

Our economy is complex, I’m not trying to make some over-simplified analogy; nor am I trying to be na?ve.

But, the popular idea that we’re going to experience hardship over the next few years is nothing but a COMMON AGREEMENT.

Why can’t that common agreement be that we’re all going to reverse the downtrend and disagree with the morbid outlook.

When has sheepish thinking gotten you anywhere?

If you think I’m wrong, tell me what I’m missing.
