Anti-Recessionist
November 18th, 2008 | Biz Blogs |
Of course this one of the most hyped recession in the world history. It has engulfed more people, more countries and more media attention then ever before. I have somehow developed an antipathy towards recession together with its cause and effect. And today I saw this anti-recessionist approach of Times of India, I felt, this is certainly the way to go. I feel like, its been over-hyped. Instead of worrying about it I’d rather do these:
Wills
1.Update my resume: That means I ‘ll understand where I stand with my skills and strengths.
2.Cost & Earning analysis: How much does Recession affect me today?
3.Strengthen my position at day-job: Look for new opportunities, be a perfectionist
4.Prepare for alternate job, just in case: create a brand for myself
5.Analyse my finances, so that I am sure of what to expect: List precisely my savings, income sources and their reliablity
6.Revive my network: You feel safer while falling when there is a safety Net(work)
7.Spread the word: Advocate Anti-Recessionism so that we come out of the recession sooner. Talking positive and spreading positive news will certainly help.
Won’ts
1.Wont Worry!
2.Won’t stop spending
3.Won’t spread rumors : If I spread rumors/recession jokes it affects me.
4.Won’t sell out my equity investments
I am an anti-recessionist. Are you ?

Well what should I say when the actions speak , I am changing the job now and I know with such rumors around it sounds fearful but in true sense it is really hyped a lot.I still see all the big companies lack real good resources who are deep and good in relevant thinking. Companies are still crying to have guys with great practical experience,ready to take risk of following unconventional approach in getting things done in all sorts of areas.
You just float the right resume and you will see you still have lot of places to move around to shape up your future
Well it’s true be a perfectionist and see the world around you will dance to your tune
