Hard Times Breeds Innovation
I keep thinking every morning we are going to wake up from a very bad dream. I have felt like this has ALL been a bad dream! How about you?
Who would have thought just a few months ago our worlds as we knew them would change collectively like this so fast!?
I’m pretty certain I’m more extroverted than I ever believed right now. I MISS PEOPLE!
I’m scared for our health
I’m scared for our economy
I am scared for those who battle depression and anxiety
I am scared for those who battle addiction
I am scared for those in bad home situations who are now stuck at home.
I’m worried for our future
I am worried for my 74 year old mom in Florida where the state is not taking things seriously.
My list goes on and on.
I am an empath and anxiety prone as is… so I’ve been waking up worrying about so much. Add my arm injury pain to it and I’m a barrel of monkeys lol.
AND I know that “worry” and being “scared” or complaining doesn’t fix or change anything.
I also KNOW that tough times breed innovation, love, creativity and community. I’ve witnessed this first hand before! I’m 48 and have bounced back from a lot…
During 9/11 when I lived in Washington DC
During the sniper shootings when we were scared to leave our homes in Reston, VA
During the 2008/2009 financial crash
And now.
TOUGH TIMES ALWAYS BREEDS INNOVATION, CREATIVITY, LOVE AND COMMUNITY.
“Tough times don’t last but tough people do” I remind myself of this and I hope you will too.
