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.

Very few people in the world run businesses, most are employees and it is still possible to carve out a very reasonable lifestyle working for other people. Like you say though, some people go through life relying on other people and in some circumstances pushing it too far - they end up leeching a living without actually contributing anything to society. Those people struggle most later in life when they sap all goodwill out of their friends and family but have no plan in place for their own independent retirement. You don't have to run a business to have a successful lifestyle, but you should aim to find a job that you like so it becomes less of a chore because you will spend a lot of your life invested in that activity.

The choice you make today determines your success tomorrow, this word is a meaningful word but people don't listen and they choose to take the wrong path. If you're a businessman or you have the aim to start up a business, don't just call it a business with random customers and sellers watching your business, it seems everyone wants to compete that's why we see the creation of different robots, the world is heading to such situation when you're not strong enough to withstand you get kick out. Passion must be involved cause when you lack the mindset of creating new ideas you definitely don't want the business to grow. We have some business that needs calculation everyday and if such a weak person finds himself in such business how can he/she cope with the stress of calculating, when dealing with government/private job you still need a creative mindset to push through. I still can't believe people without a business or source of income live in this generation

No matter what state the economy is in, there are hundreds of new dollar millionaires getting printed every day. It is because some people know how to get rich no matter what the financial situation is. Do people stop drinking water just because the economy is bad? No. Do people stop taking their pills? No. Do people stop eating? No. I just gave you 3 business ideas. They print money no matter what happens in the world. They don’t give a shit. They keep making money. In this globalized world, it is almost impossible to fail if you are smart.

Its just that some people never gets affected with a bad economy and will always tend to oversmart despite of unfavorable financial condition. So they won’t stop chasing for profits and continue making money because they always see it as their real purpose in this world. But not all people are like them. Some are weak and have no future plans and have never considered setting future goals. It’s like they do accept their fate already that they’re not bound to get rich and improve their way of living, daily survival is already enough for them.

Having an idea that will consistently flow and give birth to more income in line of business is the best to help you grow your business idea. Only those that have not tried will fail but for those that keep trying, they will become successful one day. You can’t be in your comfort zone and expect things to work for you without putting that effort into it. There is a lot of lessons in learning and failure, and when you realize and learn from them, it will only make you better in that field or skill you wish to have. No time for procrastinating as time is no more waiting for anyone, for every minute passed without doing something meaningful or impactful to grow your ideas, will only take you one step farther from achieving your goals. Economy is getting harder and if you don’t find a means of sustainable income, you won’t be able to cope and will eventually give up and remain regretful for the rest of your life.

Every human being now needs to increase his inner creativity.  And the greater the creativity, the greater the ability to attract business.  Always think creatively.  People today look for creativity everywhere and look for something a little perfect.  So people are attracted to businesses that are different and different from traditional businesses.  Most businessmen are going bankrupt after COVID.  But online traders on the other hand have reached a much higher level.  So while doing business, business should be done in proportion to what the customer wants in keeping with the surrounding situation.  There was a time when people loved to go to the market to market but now people love to market online from home so traders need to position themselves and their business in such a way that they can do business in keeping with the needs of the customers.

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.

I am sure that a lot of people, rich or poor, go to bed daydreaming about things they still want to achieve in the future. Even the rich ones dream about what more they could do and what more they could have. Of course for the rich ones, it will be much easier to accomplish their goals meanwhile for those not so privileged we have to keep working and sometimes exert even double the effort.

Nothing will happen if we just daydream. Start doing.

Materializing those dreams of yours would really be needing that extreme effort for you to be able to make it happen. It wont really be able to happen if you wont really be making out such acts.
Just also put up into your mind  though that not all would really be ending up successful despite on exerting efforts and steps. There's no such thing about assurance when it comes to your future.
There's no such thing about having that kind of approach on things but its right that you should really be taking step if you do want to have some change into your life.
You wont really be having that change in life if you wont act.

If you do saw that you are struggling with the current financial capabilities you do have now. Then it would really be just that common sense that you would
be needing to act for you to have that kind of changes into your life because if you are really just that contented on what you do have now
then when times becomes even more difficult then it would really be hard for you to sustain or to live up with it.

Thinking that simply throwing money at a business or investment will guarantee prosperity is a recipe for disappointment. True success is built on a foundation of hard work, dedication, and strategic planning. It's about rolling up your sleeves, putting in the hours, and navigating the inevitable challenges that come with any worthwhile endeavor.

Many individuals experience a rude awakening only when they encounter the harsh realities of their unrealistic expectations. They haven't invested the effort, haven't developed the skills, and haven't prepared for the inevitable bumps along the road. They anticipated smooth sailing, forgetting that growth rarely happens in a comfort zone.

The antidote to this misplaced optimism is proactive planning and responsible action. Define your goals clearly, develop a strategic roadmap, and be prepared to adapt and adjust as you encounter unforeseen obstacles. Success isn't a destination; it's a continuous journey of learning, evolving, and pushing your boundaries.

It is difficult to achieve goals when necessary things are not done. Achieving goals is not as easy as it seems. I agree with what you say because many people think that when they invest money in something, their expectations will come true, but this is a mistake. Maybe their expectations will come true, but this is a small possibility. The important thing is to be able to plan in the best way possible.

Self-improvement is the greatest investment. When a person improves himself and has the necessary information, he can take smarter steps. Thanks to this knowledge, one can reach the level of making the necessary plans.

Of course, there are many factors that affect what we say and what is expected may not always happen or it may happen at an unexpected moment. That's why improving one's self is the most important thing.

Daydreaming is very easy, but to take the steps necessary to reach that dream is very hard, it is because of this that many people do not take action, since if they just daydream at least they can keep that illusion alive, however if they were to try and fail then that daydream will become nightmare as they now know that they will never achieve it, but by having that mentality they are setting themselves for failure, as even if the chances of succeeding are low, at least they are not zero, while those that never try are guaranteed to never reach their dream.

No success will be achieved just by simply imagining your plans without executing it. Risking your time, effort and funds will definitely go into waste if you are investing from zero knowledge and experience. So always bear in mind that every business opportunity should be dealt with proper planning, long term preparation in the market, and positive attitudes towards your investment make up a complete package.

Gone are the days where competition in every business is never tight. You can always plan to invest at the moment but prior to that secure yourself first with knowledge and experience so that you will be competitive in any endeavor that you wish to start with.

A responsible adult does not worry if he is engaged in business and any work as he is able to meet the needs of his family. If the economy is bad then the people and rich people will not be able to do anything because the power to control the economy is in the hands of the government. It would be the right decision for people to think about their future and save according to a proper plan so that they can meet their daily needs even if the economy suffers. Also everyone will feel comfortable if they improve the business based on their own skills.

As someone who has done it before, I can tell that it does take ungodly amount of time before. I had absolutely no skill in drawing or 3d or anything of the sorts, I had absolutely zero skill, never even picked up a pencil to draw a stick figure in my life. Now I can create something decent, I am not saying I am master at it, but I took every single ounce of free time I had, literally every single bit, and improved myself.

These days it's even more, I a mat the hospital most of the time, and working, when my job is done, everyone is tired anyway since it's hospital and we are all tired, so they all go to sleep and I stay awake and draw some stuff or design some new things, watch some new videos to learn something new. I believe I haven't watched a new tv show or played a new game for 3+ months now for example, it's just work and this. It's just an example, but yeah, it requires a lot of dedication.

That's apt and an honest truth. The economy "isn't smiling" at all and it baffles me when people aren't getting skills or sharpening the ones they already have. They think getting certificates from tertiary institutions takes care of getting them lucrative jobs or better their state of living. Maybe in the past it did but not any more, especially the way things are going. Now, we see the need for skills to getting things done. I think anyone in this space should expand their horizon to include various online businesses and maybe include trading skills too. Don't just buy Bitcoin or alts and keep, we should also learn how to flip them for more gains. Knowing that is a skill that puts food on anyone's table for life.

It is an obligation for every adult person to look for a job that gives them an income to be able to meet the needs of their family, because it is impossible for other people to help us to earn an income if we don't start looking for a job that provides an income ourselves and we have to have management. good finances so we can have savings for our future, it's true that of course everyone will feel comfortable if they can improve their business so they can have more sources of income.

the thing rich people doing that some people that aren't generally financially good would never be able to do is the fact that sometime rich people talk about having a dream and daydreaming then the next day they will try to execute that plan, its execution that matters, someone could be having the best plan ever in their day dreaming if they never execute it does it really matter definitely not and thats definitely something that not a person with relatively bad financial condition can do that is executing, spending capital right at that time.
thats why if you see the rate of successful businessman doing business again all from scratch up to the way on top is definitely higher than average business amateur.
also experience speaks a lot about the rate of creating successful business.
what matter is pumping out that MVP, a prototype product to the market, seeing whether the product have place in the market and if it has the place, start pumping money further to the refinement of the products.

I personally would not depend too much on the people above, especially when the economy is going down, almost all of us want to save ourselves and put ourselves in a stable condition so that we can survive with the means and abilities we have. To ensure that we get through the crisis process well. Therefore we need to educate ourselves to improve our abilities, increase sources of income from all directions and ensure that when the economy gets worse, we are prepared enough to face it. Expecting other people's mercy is a mistake that needs to be avoided because not everyone will give without asking for something that is beneficial to them. Everyone needs reciprocity or mutual benefit. Nothing is free during the economic crisis and instead of having to ask, it is better to be a giver.

Learning a skill takes a lot of time and dedication, undoubtedly, and one can only do it if they are completely focused and determined towards it. As you mentioned, one can't spend time on things that they generally like doing, like playing games, watching movies and stuff, or even going out with friends. I understand that these things are also important for someone to keep their mind refreshed, but when you are learning something, you need to reduce the time you used to spend on these extra things.

These days, even those who are skilled need to focus on their skills and get them upgraded because the competition in every sector is increasing rapidly, and if you don't keep up, you will left behind.

If we are still strong and powerful then it is better to try alone without expecting pity from others. Currently the economic conditions in various remote areas are not in good condition but there is still a gap for some people who are thinking about continuing to try and try. So there is no need to worry too much about time because we as citizens also live under the control of the government. The government also always thinks about the condition of its people and always provides accurate information regarding global economic conditions. The point is that while you are still strong you must always move to produce work for a better survival.

It's why every people need to become a lifetime learner, you're not only learn when you're school or college, but after you complete your daily activities, you need to have a time to improve yourself and you must be consistent with that.

Most people don't want to become a lifetime learner, they only satisfied with the current skill they have and they will spend most of their times for useless activities e.g. playing games, watching movies etc.

Learning doesn't end as long as you are still breathing, directly or indirectly and deliberately or unexpected, you continue learning day by day. Unfortunately, not everyone pay attention to this learning in order to improve themselves. Even with your current skill, you can modify it to suit the present reality with innovation and expansion.

I digress on your second opinion about watching movies and playing games. These activities will not stop one from learning and improving themselves as it's also necessary to our well-being. You need to relax your brain from hard thinkings always and engage in having fun to reduce the stress. It's very good for our health too.
