Step up your game before the game steps you down.

There's this popular saying by the majority of my countrymen, and it's said, "double your hustle." Successful entrepreneurs are usually very rich and can cope in the face of high inflation, but most salary earners are the ones that get affected most, especially those of them whose salaries are not even that significant. What I just know is that not everyone has the ability and energy to double their hustle; some people will definitely be lazy, no matter the amount of motivation you give them.

I am a businessman today, not because I studied it in school, but because I just learned the skill from my grandma. Not everyone has had that opportunity, or some have misused it. Although business is not even easy to run because there are usually some challenges that can even cause the business to crash, it just takes your effort, persistence, smarts, and the passion you have for that thing. If not for some other stuff I had, I almost ran out of business last year, but I just didn't allow that to happen.

In conclusion, I would say that those who are in the part of the world where the inflation rate is very high, raising the cost of living so high too. Let people who find themselves in such a place "double their hustle." Don't only be bent toward one source of income; always diversify and look for greener pastures.

If you want to live and be competitive and productive as you wanted to be, then never stops working for your own progress. Always chase the different opportunities around and never miss any of them. That way, you can maximize living your life with the kind of life you wanted to achieve.

If you want to explore some sort of business or investments, then never be afraid to take some risks even if it means losing at some point. Life is uncertain and we don't have hints what will happen in the future, so always take advantage of the different opportunities that knocks your door as you can never tell if they will still be around the next day.

To me I always have the mindset that every man is the architecture of themselves or of their lives why because whatever thing you take serious becomes effectives in your life but to whatever you don't take so serious becomes casual and there will be no yielding results. When a man is tired of their condition and situation no one will asked them to go out for job or to start up a good business for themselves, with the situation of the country i think if a man doesn't work harder there will be a time where they have to go hunger strive by either starting to beg to feed themselves.

Well when the economy's rough, people kick it up a notch like hustling to boost their skills and businesses. It's a hustle to attract not just any customers but the ones that can really make a difference. In these times, there's this itch to plan and grow especially when bedtime hits. Just have to make those moves, connect with the right folks and leave a mark like the cool nerds before us

As adults, we are already force to face the real battles in life. If you are weak, you will never see progressive changes in your life, but if you are brave enough, you will always have an edge over the others. Now, seeing the economy in a negative position, it's the best time that we have to establish our own source of income. Most especially if we are breadwinners, then we should always be resourceful and should not focus only on a single job.

Investing is the key. Have an investment that gives high probability of profits, rather than taking some risk and yet you will never have the chance to gain and benefit. Don't gamble on your investment, but always be creative to promote your business or investment so that if ever you prosper and achieve you desired profits, at least there are also high chances that you can share your investments to those people who are also interested to learn and be in profits in the future.

in this life, everything is a challenge. it is up to you how you will deal with everyday challenge and continue to go on with your life. as we deal our own battles, we are learning also how to embark each bottleneck we are facing with. and if you give up, i believe, you won't see the light at the end of the tunnel but misery of life. because in that case, you may find yourself in miserable situation for not helping yourself stand up for whatever challenge this life is giving to us.

[poodle63]

current society requires us to keep striving for better results, even big companies always up their target, us the average people have no option but to keep pushing our limits.
having creative thinking to keep developing our business, further growing our business, creating many sources of incomes, as well as increasing the current income rates.
its always in our mind as an adult, but its gonna be really tough journey everyone is doing the same thing and competition is fierce.
there are many people that willing to bet their life for life changing opportunities, but what can we do, just focused on being better than the other people so that we can live comfortably.
but life is always competition from the start, those that said its not a competition, will be falling behind until they realize that they need to change something.

If only we know how bad the economy is degrading globally, we would want to push ourselves to our limit and focus on that our skill or business. Taking it up to the next level. Some persons are still skeptical about the business they own, while some are waiting for the opportunities, they were promised to them by friends or relative and others are comfortable because they have rich people around them that if they place a call, they will answer them.

As the economy is getting worst it is difficult for a responsible adult to go to bed without planning on how to grow his business or how to attract new customers, not just new though but potential customers and business partners that will have big influence in his business. Time waits for no man. Yes, the life is filled with ups and down, but we won't stop trying so that we can have that impact on the existence of man just like how other nerds have done.

I believe everyone have their purpose in life and what they are looking at to achieve in the future. For some that have their life already established for them before coming into the world will not bother themselves thinking about how the economy will cause them not to have a comfortable life for themselves. If you are not given birth to with a silver spoon, you’ll work 10 times to achieve what someone in that position will do. The riches is most time built by the originator of that wealth, those that are his benefactors don’t really work hard to see how to uplift the wealth since they’re born into it. Only few think wider and wiser to make a means of more sustainability and expansion of the wealth if they wish to.

When the originator of the wealth is gone, most benefactors can’t take control of the affairs of the source of wealth until they make one of the workers with plenty experience the new overseer of the company if not it will crash to the ground like it never existed. What I am getting at is that; most rich people benefactors don’t hustle more than the ones that are not born with a silver spoon, it is just that they’re born into the established system which they continue to leverage on for life.

In terms of trying and improving skills and doing business, it's actually not only when economic conditions are bad. Because in any condition, anyone who wants to feel pleasure through the success of the business they run must always start from a business accompanied by special skills to make the business more developed in every condition. This is due to the level of influence that is so difficult when every businessman only tries hard to improve anything in difficult conditions, because the difference that will be felt is definitely very real for those who are struggling in good conditions and those who are struggling in difficult economic conditions.

[kryptqnick]

The economy is not degrading globally. The inflation is largely getting under control, the economy is expected to continue growing globally (even if it's supposed to happen slower than before). In my country, the situation is improving a lot, compared to 2023 and especially to 2022. So it's not all getting worse, and sometimes it might be good to wait a bit and see where things are going, instead of rushing blindly and making a risky decision. Knowing when to stop and think, and when to act, is very important is a dynamic world we live in.

I mean there was no other way around it if you want to get rich you're gonna need to start a business at some point it would depend on you but mostly sales is the best business that you could start easily. Also, not just business skills I would suggest also learning financial literacy because as I learn about it I realize a lot of things and that is when I change my mindset about money, how I am going to save and invest my money, etc. In my opinion, it is learning how we are going to manage our money is one of the most important things so that we know what we are going to do, most of the systems are really broken and its already set up for you like to spend, banks, etc wanted you to spend your money, use their credit cards, etc just to persuade you to spend your money and if you're not careful you're going to fall in the there trap, but if you know what is going on you could avoid this thing and only buy what you needed or only buy what you can afford not buying what you can't and dont need as well.

I wholeheartedly agree that time waits for no man, and even during economic downturns, continuous improvement in our skills and businesses is crucial. True success often arises when opportunity meets preparation, so standing out from the competition is essential. By actively honing our skills and seeking out innovative approaches, we can create a unique value proposition that sets us apart and positions us for success, regardless of the economic climate.

The economy is degrading globally? The global GDP had a growth of 2.7% for 2023 and it kept growing the past several years.
I don't know about the current economic situation in your country. The fact that your country's economy isn't going well doesn't mean that the global economy is in a downfall.
I don't get the point of your forum thread. Getting your sh*t together is the most generic advice ever. It seems to me that you are just wining and complaining about the current situation. Was is easier for the business owners in the past? I don't think so. Running a business has always been hard.

[DeathAngel]

It’s not just business owners that need to worry about the economic climate. Salaried workers need to worry too, the economy is not doing as well as it has in recent years & when that happens we are at risk of recession. There could be a lot of job losses so it’s a good idea to prepare for the worst. You need to try & make yourself indispensable to the work force. Take up any courses that add a string to your bow. 

[icalical]

I don't even know how the global economic condition right now, but with the condition in my own country I am no longer have so much ambition as 5 years ago. I currently just be enough with having saving for my kids education until college and also still trying to save some money so my kids will have some money to start their career or their own business. I used to have some dreams to own some multi branch company but then covid hits, and the recovery is extremely difficult, so now I won't be too naive, and just trying to do my best.

Everyone will of course be worried if they experience bad economic conditions, for workers it is possible that they will lose their jobs because the company where they work cannot afford to pay them and before this all happens it would be better for us to prepare ourselves so that we can survive in bad economic conditions, if we like a business that can give us income, it would be very good if we continue to develop this skill so that we can still earn income when experiencing bad economic conditions.

[Sebas.tian]

Those that prepared well some years ago will not feel this global economic crisis, because they learned a lot from other people failure that made them to vow never to invest on one source of income, and all the investment they have invested in the past are all working well. Business is not a something you will just start a day without you have the knowledge of the business, which I have seen many people like that in my environment but at the end they blame the business or the capital they used to start the business. I believe many adult have learned their lesson from pandemic that collapsed many businesses all over the world, based on people never thought such thing will happen globally to frustrate business owners.

[Barikui1]

I think over the years, the economic situation in most countries across the globe have really not been nice, as a man that is trying to make a living and don't want to continue being down, just need to keeps on putting in the work by adding another source of income, so as to be able to withstand the financial challenges today's activity demands. Just look at how costly the price of things are, at the market, you will be wondering how possible did the government want us to survive like this, that is why as a individual, we need to look for a way on how we can navigate our way around this economic hardship in the land, so adding another source of income is one very good strategy that should not be over looked.

Well, it is very true for companies in the IT sector, because you see technology changing more rapidly with technology.

Just look at the lightening speed that AI technology has changed in just a few months.

You either adapt or Die in the IT industry... because technological development is very fast. (Crypto falls in the same industry)
