A couple of weeks ago, one of my Facebook \u2018friends\u201d wrote a post about the evil mother-of-all-snowstorms that was headed to Cincinnati on Christmas Day. As we know now, that didn\u2019t happen here. He had little evidence of his prediction. Yet, some folks get their jollies spreading gloom, doom, and fear.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve talked with a lot of individuals in my network in these last weeks of 2010. They all have a very positive outlook on the New Year. Positive thoughts bring positive energy.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m blessed that the business I started two years ago has had sustainable growth over the past 12 months. I can\u2019t wait to get started on 2011.<\/p>\n
Has the economy bounced back to pre-2006 levels? Not quite. But in many sectors, spending and consumer confidence HAS improved. Many are still out of work, but I know a LOT of folks who are getting hired! My business was better in 2010 than in the year before. It\u2019s allowed me to make capital improvements for all the clients I\u2019m going to serve next year.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s take the naysayers, the doom and gloomers, and the fear mongers and kick them to the curb starting right now! When that ball drops, whether it\u2019s Times Square or Fountain Square; think of it as a fuse being lit. All of us who are small businesses or solopreneurs have the power to make some 2011 fireworks of our own happen.<\/p>\n
Are you ready?<\/p>\n
That’s a wrap.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
