I am in Iran on a speaking tour. For those who might be mildly interested I am lecturing on business growth, leadership, and attitude amongst other topics. Well, when I left the UK the news media were implying that everybody in the public sector was going to lose their job. The recession was still rampant and the government had lost the plot with their ridiculous cut backs.
If you think that it’s tough in the UK, come here for a spell. Iran is a beautiful country with charming people who have the great wish to be peaceful, happy and want to enhance their lifestyles – same as us really.
I am told 70% of graduates leaving university want to leave their country. Most feel that there is no future for them. Bureaucracy and restrictions are rife. And of course trade sanctions make life extremely difficult and lead to a thriving black market. I am not a politician and I am not giving an opinion as to the justification or background or reason to this situation….any how I would like to come home.
My goodness me, the UK is a goldmine, a haven, a sanctuary for opportunity. It may not be a land of milk and honey but it is certainly a land of free enterprise. We should all be making more of what we have and be genuinely and really excited about the future.
We live in an environment of freedom (despite the EU) and our future is largely in our own hands. Out of every recession emerge the truly great success stories. So just go for it!! Useful Tips
- 1. Ban all negative talk
- 2. Ban the word problem and replace with situation
- 3. Use Richard Denny’s famous negative repellent
- 4. Set some positive realistic goals daily, weekly, monthly and for the future
- 5. Make someone happy each day
