This week, I wanted to tackle a huge question: "Is this the end?"
Spoiler Alert: No. It isn't.
We're dealing with unpleasant realities at this time. Tune into the news, and you hear things like:
- Recession
- Inflation
- High Interest Rates
- the Labor Market
- the Great Resignation
- Bear Market
- Supply Chain Shortages
- War in Europe
It's important to realize that the news media is in the business of selling fear. I don't mean to vilify the media...Fear is what we buy the most of, so that's mostly what they sell.
But, how bad are things, really?
