Occupy Wall Street, What Are Other Options Than Protest?
What Are Other Options Than Protest?
A call to action. Peaceful gatherings.
While the grassroots ideas and philosophies are wonderful at the initial onset, these protests usually suffer some sort of violence. Why does it take protest to make government leaders and officials to pay attention? It’s a sad state but also a reality that this type of action sometimes must take place for issues to be resolved.
Not everyone is prepared, nor is it viable for many to participate in these protests, for many reasons. I believe most of us support and agree with the need for change and agree with fighting for a cause.
But does it take a protest? What else can be done? For most, a protest is out of their comfort zone and fear is a pretty powerful motivator.
History has shown that much can also be achieved by one single person. We all have the ability to make a difference, and yes, it can be done one person at a time.
I am of the belief and facts show that we are ultimately responsible for how we respond to what happens in our lives. We make not control what happens to us but we certainly control how we respond.
Its starts with our circle of influence and what can we do to make a difference locally.
What can we do that puts us in control of our finances and minimize the impact on decisions at Wall Street that are made that affect the global economy.
One of the answers, if we look back prior to the industrial revolution, is that people did not depend on corporations for security. They had their own businesses, and within communities, supported each other.
We are still teaching our young to get good education and find a good job. That’s ludicrous when major companies are downsizing, outsourcing to third world countries, education cost are excessive and student loans are out of control. Why are we not teaching about entrepreneurship?
With everyone wanting a quality of life, having your own business is one way to ensure your own financial stability, while doing something you enjoy, work with people you like, and have the time flexibility to spend with your family to do the things you want to do.
And its does not mean having to get our of your comfort zone. It can be done by expanding your comfort zone and making it a positive process that’s fun and enjoyable.
Occupy Wall street is a call to action. Make this your personal call to action.
