Mauro Libi: "You can not stop the waves , but you can learn to surf"


By Mauro Libi. The world is in turmoil.  The world is suffering through a very unstable global economy. England is debating whether it is best to stay in the European market or go at it on their own.  Countries throughout Europe debate whether they should keep the euro.

The Russian economy is in a downfall.   The U.S. economy has slightly recovered but average income is down and jobs are being outsourced to other countries. The USA is now debating whether they would be better off being more isolationist as that may protect them from the effects of a weak global economy and poor trade agreements.

The list goes on and on there is hardly a country that is not showing signs of a depressed economy. 
In each and every one country their solution to the economy is that it is a bad  thing and we must act to prevent it from getting worse.

Maybe that is the wrong approach. This article will not present any answers to the economy but will present a different outlook that can in itself present answers.

There is an expression that says, "You cannot stop the waves , but you can learn to surf". Instead of trying to solve an economic situation that may be beyond our control , maybe we should see it as not a bad thing.  Maybe this poor economy presents opportunities. If we open our eyes and see things in a positive light , we may have found a path out of this bad economy.(Mauro Libi)

The waves of this global economic downfall cannot be stopped.  The ways of yesterday that brought us into this downward spiral may not be the answer that we seek.  Albert Einstein said that one cannot keep doing the same and expect different results.  Maybe our answer lies in not trying to go back to the robust 1990's when the economy was fantastic because in reality they lead us to our present situation. (Mauro Libi)

Our answer may lie in not fighting the ill effects of the economy but look at it from a positive perspective.  See the economy as a friend telling us that we need to change. Maybe our answer lies in increasing programs like the SEED program in our schools.  

That is a science and technology program. It teaches the students to advance the world and create positive change. Programs like the SEED admit that we don't have to understand why the world is no longer working, what worked last year or ten years ago no longer works now. It is accepting that fact that change is needed. Real change. Fixing a broken economy may not work , viewing the economy as a sick friend screaming out for some modern medicine to cure him , can make both the patient and the economy better and stronger than ever.

Our weak economy may be filled with opportunity to grow and be stronger than anything we could have imagined. This economic fix may require positive thought. We must not try to turn it around but to change it. We need to stay focused and positive that the opportunities are greater than ever if we just look with s positive outlook.  We need to see that now is the time for change through education and technology. By investing in knowledge we may have the way into our future.
