Downsizing
While companies are downsizing, so are their laid off employees, especially us baby boomers. We seem to be the group that is left to find our way and to seek solutions.
<===== The photo to your left is a storage unit of all the personal belongings that I have left. As you can see, I have very little left from the furnishing that were in my home.
When I rented my house, I decided that my possessions were holding me down and preventing me from moving forward. I really wanted to build my business to help other baby boomers who were looking for solutions. In order to do that, I had to make some very difficult decisions, such as selling most of what I had to get what I want.
For the past week I have been staying with family members while I set up a temporary office in another location. As hard as this is for me, I realize that many of us, who have been affected by the economic downturn, are not as fortunate and don’t have options.
I can only hope that we all come together and help each other in this journey of changing times. It’s not about possessions as much as connections, our health, our attitudes and our drive to find a solution that will move us forward.
