It appears in this video that President Bush’s approval is in a sorrier state than polls indicate. In a video taken at the G20 summit, Bush walks across a line of world leaders without shaking or being asked to shake any of their hands. Whether the President is being rejected by the world leaders or he is rejecting them, CNN’s Rick Sanchez aptly says that Bush looks like “the most unpopular kid in high school that nobody liked.”

Open your eyes my friends, there are major things happening today in this world. These trends will have a great effect in your business, some will directly affect your network marketing business, some will indirectly affect your network marketing business. The choice of ignorance of these trends will NOT be bliss 5 years from now.

A major trend in the world economy is the rising power of India and China, along with other nations gaining massive momentum.

A second trend happening now is the openness of mass collaboration, social media, internet, and technology.

The third trend is unfortunately a floundering US economy.

Over the next decade life and business will be changed due to these 3 trends. Many behemoth companies will perish. Many up and coming companies will excel. All currently existing companies including your home based business must see and take into account these major trends to stay on the edge, and to prevail through the next 10 years.

Let us take a closer look at the first trend of the rising powers of India and China. This is important because India represents 1.1 billion people and China represents 1.3 billion people. India’s well-educated, young population has embraced state-of-the-art computer and information technologies, making their country one of the most important high-tech hubs in the world. This will enable you to soon be 1 click away from a large percentage of their entire population.

India’s information technology and computer companies in Bangalore have been named as the world’s second Silicon Valley. The expanding middle class, robust military establishment and the country’s increasing sophistication in high-technology are shaping India as one of the rising political, economic and military powers. China is a different story, but the rise in both is inevitable. Knowing about it and taking action is important to anyone looking to build their network to dramatic sizes.

In regards to the second trend, the rapid growth of technology. There are many causes for this, the major one being the usage of mass collaboration. Did you know that Wikipedia recently had its 10 millionth article posted? They do not have employees doing those posts. Those post are done only by volunteer editors. Do you know how many people have created Myspace, Facebook, and hundreds of other websites into what they are today? Hundreds of Millions. If you are on the internet, you have most likely taken part in this mass collaboration consciously or not.

Mass collaboration is happening not only on the internet, it is happening among regular companies as well. Boeing, BMW, and PG&E are only a few companies utilizing the powers of the masses. As this technology grows ever stronger, knowledge will excel, and those utilizing these mass collaborative technologies will see quick success. This trend is backed by freedom of choice and true winning ways of doing business. Companies utilizing these means of doing business are opening their doors, and succeeding at dramatic rates compared to being closed and only relying on internal networks.

You can take advantage of today’s remarkable technology and mass collaboration in multiple ways for example, you can take part in social networks, in social forums, and through creating your own small business groups to help everyone succeed faster. We live in a WE world, not a ME world. The internet has put us in a place where we can be in touch with almost anyone at any time. Because of the rapid pace of innovation, technology is improving faster than most people can handle. There is no reason to let this hold you back from learning.

The third trend is a floundering US economy. Will it turn? I have hope, as do many others.

Would you invest your life savings on hope? Your retirement? Your dreams? Would you bet your entire future on that 4 letter word. I will not, and I recommend that you take the action required to learn the skills you need to push through and become self sufficient, and non reliant on outside sources for your future. You have to in a sense learn to become your own bank. The currently failing economy got many sparks from the falling housing and mortgage market, as well as continual sparks from layoffs and downsizing of multiple large companies. There are tons of ways to get ahead out there, and due to all the positive trends previously discussed the opportunities are endless.

Network marketing is one great way to get ahead, if the sustained time and effort is put forth, success will be achieved. With all of the trends above in mind, a network marketing business makes a lot of sense.

In closing, it is important to note that these 3 massive trends are not separate from one another. The rising powers and capabilities of the world are exponentially increased with the fast paced innovations in technology, which are all rapidly increased by the powers of mass collaboration. The floundering economy of the US can take these trends into account and get better quicker by utilizing these trends, or as a whole. Or, as a whole the US economy may not take the trends into account, and therefore will deplete itself to worse conditions.

The purpose of this article is by no means political in nature. Partly, the purpose is to help you open your eyes, and to inspire you to look deeper into these trends. At large, the main purpose of this article is to demonstrate that IF you learn, take into account, and go into action mode in regards to these massive trends, the probabilities for your success have never been as good.

David asked:


There is some law in the US passed in the 1800s I beleive that forbids anyone outside of the federal government from deciding foreign policy.

Forbes Magazine Editor-In-Chief and two-time Republican Presidential candidate Steve Forbes argues that a strong, stable dollar is crucial for the U.S. economy, and examines how business innovation can encourage U.S. competitiveness in the global economy.

—–

Leading economic prognosticator, Steve Forbes says the upcoming presidential election is the most critical since 1980. At that time, Ronald Reagan defeated incumbent Jimmy Carter, ushering in dramatic new policies that would set the course of this country for the next quarter-century.

What course does Forbes believe the country should take to end the current credit crisis? Will he promote a flat tax, medical savings accounts and a new Social Security system as he did for his 1996 and 2000 presidential platforms?

In the recent study “The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy”, the authors of the paper, Professor Stephen Walt of Harvard University and John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago, charge that the United States has willingly set aside its own security and that of many of its allies in order to advance the interests of Israel. In addition the study accuses the pro-Israeli lobby, particularly AIPAC of manipulating the U.S. media, policing academia and silencing critics of Israel by labeling them as anti-Semitic.

A new article in the New York Review of Books examines the controversial report and the reaction to it. It’s called “The Storm Over the Israel Lobby.” It was written by media critic Michael Massing, who joins Amy Goodman for the interview. Michael is a contributing editor of the Columbia Journalism Review and frequently writes for the New York Review of Books.
