Where will we be in 2011

The mid-term elections shed light on what the people are thinking...it's the economy and in particular the unemployment rate. Hopefully this will provide the impetus for the President and Congress to be more pro-business, pro-growth and not so much focus on regulations in the next two years. A rising tide lifts all boats and if our economy were to pick-up, the private sector might be able to fix some of the social problems our Congress and President were trying to fix in the last 2 years. It is still unknown where we will be in 2011 but we should move forward with cautious optimize. And more importantly we need to get out of the bunker, start thinking about growth and use 2011 to propel us to a much better 2012 and beyond. We are in control of what our future holds and our decisions and attitudes about 2011 will have a major impact on our success or lack of in 2012. 2008 - 2010 performances were more driven by decisions made in 2005- 2007 than decisions made during 2008-2010. If we don't change our way of thinking and vision, 2012 might not be any different. It might be too late to make 2011 what we want...that outcome was more driven by 2009 and 2010 decisions than what we do in 2011. Now is the time to make bold decision, to have a long term focus and control your destiny going forward.
