LISTEN TO THIS To survive and thrive in today’s economy; it takes a lot more than complaining about status quos, hoping for the best. Sure budget is tighter, government may not perform to expectation, challenges are daunting, yet we don’t have to wave the red flag yet. Now is the time to move faster, smarter and more aggressively. The future belongs to those who do not settle down to recreate past iniquities.
