The great lie is that we are in an economic meltdown.   You can hear whispers of truth everywhere if you just listen.  Because they are whispers, you will have be very quiet and still to hear them.  It is difficult to hear it through the din and noise of the main stream press, the scare tactics of political campaigns and dull roar of water cooler talk.

Here’s what they are whispering.  There are two economies, the big scary global economy and YOUR economy.  One has nothing to do with the other, except that when you bolster your economy the big scary global eco-system becomes less and less powerful and we are fast approaching critical mass,  that tipping point where the giant global economy is as bright and shiny as yours.

If you choose to listen to the noise instead of the whisper of truth, you might find yourself stagnant, suffering, lacking and whining.  Here are some statistics that may have you taking the cotton out of your ears:

1.  Deloitte Center for Financial Services projects the total number of families with a net worth over a $1 million will double in 2020
2. The families with net worth of a million that were wiped out from 2006 to 2008 have recovered and the boom is on for the next generation – CNN.
3. The US has by far more millionaires than any other country in the world – Deloitte.

I could go on with statistics to prove the point.  The real shift is in the increase of entrepreneurship.  This wave of new business owners has flourished during this “economic meltdown” through hook or by crook.  Leading the charge “Women”!

Lynn Parramore, co-founder of Recessionwire, says  “Women trying their hands as entrepreneurs are creating critical jobs for Americans, and we need start-up funds, access to affordable education and training, childcare, and a reliable network of social services.”

Even the Federal Reserve is getting in on the act sharing ideas and beginning the dialogue through the “Small Business and Entrepreneurship During an Economic Recovery” two day forum.

What does this have to do with you if you’ve lost your job, can’t make the mortgage, struggling to find a foot hold financially?  Money has an inner game and an outer game.  Playing the outer game will keep you stuck where you are.  Playing an inner game will allow you to open up to the secrets of your own personal economy and become one of these new entrepreneurs, taking that first step towards adding to the millionaires of 2020.

Step One.  Decide that you are going to stop listening to the noise and being a casualty.  Start listening to your whisper that you have everything you need to create your own business.  All those excuses of I’m not smart enough, tall enough, skinny enough, educated enough are no longer the truth.  Millionaire business range from Cat Pet Psychics (putting your cat on the phone to do a reading)  to Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook (trillions of people connecting through the internet).

Step Two.  Work on your inner money game.  Change your conversation from there is not enough to money is everywhere.  There are trillions of dollars floating out in the “big scary global ecomomy” waiting for you to pick it up.  What are you waiting for?  This is an inside job.  Find the mentor who will show you how to change the conversation.

Step Three.  Do It.  Money loves speed.   Take action today.  What is one small action you can take to begin your journey?  Turn the TV off.  Stop listening to the news.  Focus on new entrepreneurs to see what they are doing.   Develop your vision for your entrepreneur endeavor.  Tell a trustworthy friend you are taking the leap.  Once again find a mentor or a coach who will help you achieve it.  None of this will happen doing it alone.  Take action now!

There is an economic revolution taking place.  Do you want to be part of it or be trampled by it?
