Making Things Happen Economically Is Not As Easy As It Might Seem

Good day once again, fellow HIVE users from LeoFinance as well as dear readers from both HIVE and outside of it! For today's last contribution on the LeoFinance community as well as on my personal HIVE blog, I decided to write about an interesting and sometimes sad realistic aspect, more specifically the fact that making things happen economically is not as easy as it might seem at first glance and it's definitely not always easy or not easy at all...

Please allow me to explain myself more in depth. First of all, we live in rather uncertain and turbulent economic times. Secondly, the economy (as life in general) has ups and downs. The ups are experienced by overcoming the downs, certainly. Thirdly, to constantly create added value for a company or for yourself as a freelancer is very challenging and it requires persistence, motivation, hard work, focus, and a right mindset which also includes optimism (and realism at the same time).

Optimistic realism, if I may, is a type of mindset which I have been striving to maintain for quite a lot of time, sometimes more efficiently than in other times. Sometimes, this optimistic realism was a bit pessimistic than the positive outcomes I was faced with subsequently which really pleasantly surprised me and I am still grateful for those pleasant surprises in my life, as I should be, naturally.

However, to get back to the main point of this post, making things economically is challenging. With those 'ingredients' which I previously mentioned above taken into account, one also needs to put well in balance and weight the pros and cons as well as the advantages and disadvantages of your actions and decisions in the economic field which is a very, very complex one on its own.

I'd also like to express myself here by saying that making things happen in economic regards (obviously in positive regards by creating more added value) is a feature of capitalism. Now capitalism is not perfect, I think we all know this by now, but, so far in human history capitalism has been the best economic alternative as a system (which also includes free market and international trade) to the bankrupt totalitarian ones which only produced misery, pain, and disillusionment.

In point of fact, it was precisely the disenchantment produced by the actual state of these totalitarian regimes that invigorated capitalism in, for example, several Central and Eastern European states during the late 20th century.

To sum it up, to make things happen economically you have to come up with good ideas, reliable economic ideas which can help others and create the functional environment for mutual aid, understanding, and prosperity. This can be achieved if at least two sides in an economic system (which is capitalist, that is) keep their end of the bargain and are trustworthy to one another, as they should be. If that happens, more positive economic things will happen for the development of both sides (and others, at the same time, given the fact that, whether we like to admit it or not or whether we know it or not already, everything is interconnected in economic regards and not only).

That was all for this post of mine. I truly hope you found it interesting, captivating, and well worth your time! Thank you very much for your time, readership, appreciation, and positive feedback here on HIVE! It means a lot to me! All the best, much respect, take care, stay safe, and have a wonderful autumn along with your dear ones! 🙂

P.S.: Moral of the story - always try to make things happen economically, even in the most turbulent times. If you try and did not succeed, that's just a lesson learned, not a big failure. If you did not try, then you did not earn anything. Staying idle in this regard is the worst thing that can happen to a productive person or an aspiring productive person, if you'd ask me. All the best once again!
