The credit crunch was a blessing. I’m grateful for it every day, and the opportunity that the new economy presents is amazing, wonderful and American.
A big part of me thinks that we were exposed for not working hard, for enjoying the fruits of a life we had yet to earn, and that the reason we’re in the mess we’re in is because we’ve gotten away from what makes us American.
Work a little harder.
Spend more time on the details.
Deliver faster.
Serve More.
Give more.
Think more, help more.
Not blame more, want more.
This is an opportunity to relearn a national work ethic that won two world wars, got us through a depression, etc.
Just a thought for a Superbowl Sunday.
For my part, I’ll be working harder and smarter than as many people as I can.
