		<description>Hi David. Great post. I write something similar some time ago on my own blog for my &lt;a href=&quot;thrivingnotstriving.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;LifePath Unlimited&lt;/a&gt; home based business.  It is true that the &#039;downturn&#039; effect is contingent on how you receive and perceive it to be. I think that for a lot of us, times of struggle are the same times that allow us to take stock of what we truly hold dear.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We tend to assess our priorities and choose what makes us happy.  I was fortunate to lose my job in the downturn... and to be able to convert that &#039;loss&#039; into a win by finally pursuing my own ambitions to own an online business.  Like you, too, I have now turned my focus on blogging as my prime vehicle for personal fulfillment and financial satisfaction. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In resonance to your quote, may I add - &quot;in life you don&#039;t get what you want, you get who you are..&quot; .&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Looking forward to building some trackbacks with you!  &lt;a href=&quot;http://thrivingnotstriving.com/weblog/comments/is_the_global_crisis_really_a_crisis&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;ThrvingNotStriving.com&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>I absolutely agree with you, David.  The economy is in a mess, however for creative people who handle their resources well and bust their jacksy, you can still achieve.

You simply have to be more resourceful and smarter.

Here&#039;s to 2009!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m pushing forward and doing something that is sadly not promoted much anymore. I am taking personal responsibility for my life. I will determine if I succeed or fail.

2009 will be the year that sets the rest of my life.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve been alright so far -- I paint and work a full time job doing marketing / project management, and have decided to sticking with full time work for another year. Working hard on personal, potential money-making projects on the side, always. Everybody, hang in there!</description>

		<description>Interesting discussion. Thanks Hugh for very considered comment. I too think we are just at the beginning of a very deep trough. What we do about our individual problems is a matter for each one of us, but I don&#039;t think internet marketing is a magic hole that lets us escape into a better world. If only! 
If people are not buying physical goods they are also not buying information. I&#039;m definitely rethinking my attitude to spending on courses etc. And I assume others are too.</description>

		<description>Recessions are for economies - not for individuals.

YOU - can&#039;t have a recession. 

You CAN have your best year ever if you&#039;re in the RIGHT market.

If you&#039;re on a sinking ship - jump the hell off...

I have a site in a particular niche and someone asked me if my sales were off because of the economy...

I just shrugged because I had never thought of it that way - I&#039;m continually doing link building, SEO and continual split testing to improve the revenue the site makes.

These improvements are meant to out pull any dip in sales.

Control what you can and the hell with the rest.</description>

		<description>I feel as well I need to increase my digital knowledge and do whatever it takes. Be optimistic. These are historic times we live in just as our fathers and their fathers. We have to wake up the creative part of our brain and put it to work. It&#039;s up to us because God help us if we depend on everybody else. People can only do so much. There is a lot we can do ourselves to make changes.</description>
