Riding a Bicycle Downhill Doesn’t Mean Your Legs Are Strong

Recessions force us to decide if we’re a necessity.

That’s a painful conversation to have.

Nobody enjoys
entertaining the prospect of irrelevancy.

But when the shit hits the economic fan, we owe it to
ourselves – and to our enterprise – to honestly assess the value we provide. To
courageously listen if the intersection of our personal obsession and the
marketplace need is worth paying money for.

What sucks is, we might realize that our past prosperity was
nothing more than riding a bicycle downhill under the assumption that our legs are
strong.

And if that’s the case, we may be forced to change lanes or,
worse yet, get off the road.

On the other hand, we might use the recession to renew our
resourcefulness. To reignite our creativity. And to give our business a much
needed kick in the pants.

Point being, we have a choice.

And as long as we’re honest with ourselves, it will be the
right one.

Stupid economy.
