In relationship there’s been a lot of ‘crisis and restoration’ experiences among us. A lot of break ups but the thing is being able to move on and learn from what transpired and make things better when another relationship comes in.

Yea that’s so true if you are lost and don’t decide to choose a side you will just stay there forever so just chose one and see where it takes you. Thanks =)

Jordans, I think the key is to decide and not get stuck. In truth, few choices are irreversible. At least you’re moving in one direction or another. You can almost always change direction later.

The most common illustration is the rudder of a large ship. Comparatively speaking, it’s a small thing. But it can change a huge ship’s direction easily - IF the ship is moving. While sitting still, it’s useless.

Thanks for dropping by, Jordans!

In the “After survival, it’s time to choose your direction” which one did you choose? My first instinct is right but then after I thought about it I decide left. Shoudl you go with your first choice?

Way to go, Frank! You, like other folks, are finding ways to turn crisis into opportunity. May we all learn to do the same!

As soon as the market was down 35% from its highs, I slowly began to buy. When there are stocks like BMY and PFE who sell drugs and have a dividend yield of 9%, you know its time to jump in. In 3-4 years the Dow will be reaching new highs. Just watch.

You’re so right, Michael. Ultimately it’s to our own benefit, not to mention those whose lives we directly affect - to think things through rationally and calmly. Otherwise… well, we generally won’t like what happens otherwise.

I also think it’s the problem. I believe that we need to think about the things that surrounds us because in the end we are the one to get affected.

@Raj - You’re so right, my friend! And I think that’s the problem: we don’t take the time to think. But the fact is, we can survive much more than we think.

@Wilson - Hey, it’s a heck of a lot easier to change direction if you’re moving than if you’re just sitting still. So don’t worry about wrong choices so much as NO choices. You can always change once you figure out what the right way IS.

in todays society people are so fast to jump on the GET WORRIED AND FREAK OUT band wagon..without stopping to think, hey its going to be ok… i factor in that people are busier now which is causing no time to “think”

The toughest thing to me is making the decision and choosing the direction, as I’m the person who seems to chose the wrong direction most of the time…

Well, no matter what, I always have a faith that the sunshine will coming to me, after the stormiest weather!

@Monique - It’s so easy to get complacent in today’s society. If nothing else, it should serve as a wake-up call for personal responsibility in one’s own financial situation. But first… maybe a tantrum doesn’t sound so bad, does it?
