2.5 Living and working in the urban informal economy: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| Street vendors in Mexico City; rickshaw pullers in Calcutta; jeepney
drivers in Manila; garbage collectors in Bogotá; and roadside barbers in Durban
– those who work on the streets or in the open air are the more visible
occupational groups in the informal economy. The streets of cities, towns,
and villages in most developing countries – and in many developed countries

vendors of vegetables, fruit, meat, fish, snack foods, and a myriad of nonperishable

rickshaw pullers, and camel, bullock, or horse-cart drivers jostle to make
their way down narrow village lanes or through the maze of traffic on city
streets. |

Control Your Inputs
| |
| Your mind is your ultimate personal computer.

Choosing Our Poison or Choosing to Let Go
| |
| I am running late for an important appointment and speeding down a two-lane highway. Suddenly I come up behind a garbage truck lumbering along well below the speed limit. The highway is full of oncoming traffic, curves, and hills so I can't pass. If I start to get angry, pound the steering wheel, and really work myself into lather about this, who is in control of my emotions at this point - a garbage truck or me?
