ecoNOmy

So today was the day I was thinking about, (and reading a Washington Post full of info on Obama's speech and those of 210 other people) the fact that this current economic crisis can maybe be used to consider another perspective.
What if we throw it upside down and try to figure out "what's great about it?" Maybe what's great about it is that it will give us the opportunity to say NO to certain things in our lives that have been sucking our energy, maybe jobs where we really did not want to be. This could be a catharsis for us, allowing us to ask: where do you want to work? What do you really want to do? Now that you may have to re-focus what WILL you focus on?
You may have to say NO to extra things in your life. Time to evaluate. How necessary were those for you? did they really add to your life?

So think about the ecoNOmy in a different way!
