Are Shelter Books Dead -- Or merely the new bridal magazines?
With the news that Hachette Filipacchi Media is shuttering Metropolitan Home magazine, we've come to a turning point, I think, in what used to be known as the "shelter books" -- magazines focusing on interior design for the home.
What are the Upsides of This Major Downturn?
Well, we've all heard plenty about the major down turn that we're in the midst of. The news media is having a real hay day with it all. Unemployment continues to rise, home foreclosures are everywhere, and no one seems to know quite what to do about it all. But let's take a step back and look at this from a different perspective. Let's say for the moment that we live in a universe where there are no accidents. I know that can be a bit of a challenge in its own right, especially when it looks like there's been a major accident on the universal freeway, but I don't think so. I think it's more likely that we've been paid a visit from the Universal UPS Truck.
THE Housing Solution
Well the numbers are in and it looks like home foreclosures are up a whopping 15% in the first half of 2009, affecting more than 1.5 million households.

Opportunities in Times of Chaos
If the news and the "warnings of impending doom" are inspiring your imagination to create awful images in your head, CHANGE THAT! Stimulate your imagination to create images of what's possible, what's new and creative, fun, loving and empowering. Remember, "We become what we think about all day long." In times of storm, think about the rainbow.
Be on the Lookout For Desk Rage
According to a recent REUTERS article, workplace violence is on the rise. And to find the reason why, one need look no further than the economy.

Ultimate Productivity
We are all being bombarded daily with reports of business failures, economic downturns, home foreclosures, inflation threats, and the ever-present dreaded monster known as recession. There is very little, if anything, that you and I can do about these conditions on a global or national basis, but we can have an immense impact where it really matters in our own home and business.
