Felix walks around my block many times a day - and I thought he had a few good words to say about a proper mental additude when facing economic collapse:

I feel almost lucky that manufacturing turning to crap in the late 80s led to me having two small businesses. I don't make a lot of money, but being independent is much less stressful and there is room for the hand of Providence to operate, which is amazing. Many times I've been broke, and the phone would ring with an opportunity to make thousands of dollars. This has cemented my faith in God, though I am not very religious in the traditional sense, not being a churchgoer.


Do Not Worry (Matthew 6:25-34)

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
