A lot has been happening in the world since. We've all seen the dramatic effects of the recession in the world. Only the other day our company announced they were going to cut over 2000 jobs. My area was only saved after we all agreed to take a pay-cut. After reading rK's blog it got me thinking I don't have a backup plan! If I was fired today I would have nothing to fall back on. The idea that a safe secure job for life has truly faded away as we have seen this by the massive job losses around the world, just in the last 6 months alone. At one stage it was 500,000 job lost a month just in the US.
Perhaps its time for us to take a leap in a different direction. The idea of chasing a safe secure job for the rest of your life may have worked in our parents time but the world has changed. Maybe its time to stop living for the weekend and think seriously about our future. One alternative that has always been around is the entrepreneurial route. While it might not be wise to quit your job and start a business today, you could have something going on the side that could take off as a business in the future.
One thing that we all have in common is that we are young and we have ideas. We were all born with unique gifts and its certain that if we can use ours gifts together it is guaranteed that it will pay off in a big way. Its time we got together and talk about how we can convert ideas into profitable enterprise...
