People's attitudes tend to spread. One person expresses a view to many people. Some of those people embrace the view. Then some of those people express the view to other people. This chain-communication spreads views and attitudes.

Technology advancements have radically changed communication capability. We now enjoy a communication capability that is very close to real-time and very close to fully-worldwide.

When we feel and think then talk in more-optimistic ways we spread more-optimistic thought and messages.

When we feel and think then talk in more-pessimistic ways we spread more-pessimistic thought and messages.

When we spread more-optimistic thoughts and messages the economy tends to grows and prosper.

When we spread more-pessimistic thoughts and messages the economy tends to shrink and fail.

This happens because People's Actions always follow their Feelings and Thoughts. While there are some exceptions to this 'rule' such as blinking in reaction to a surprise motion or jumping in reaction to a surprise sound or touch...this 'rule' certainly applies to buying, selling, and the various other trans-Actions that generate economies.

How to Improve the Economy:

1. Accept as a fact of life - nobody can accurately predict the future.
2. Accept as a fact of life - some people tend to be optimistic, others tend to be pessimistic, and everyone else tends to be neutral.
3. Accept as fact of life - the louder few always get more ear-time than the silent majority.
4. Choose to be just a little more optimistic about the economy.
5. Talk as enthusiastically as you feel about your optimism.
6. If you cannot accommodate #4 or #5 above then - be silent. [Spreading pessimism is of no value to anyone.]
