"Defy the Recession" Manifesto & Movement

1. Promise to see possibilities where others blindly accept problems.

2. Refuse to comply with naysayers, prophets of doom, Chicken Littles, doubting Thomases and other glass-half-empty types.

3. Make even smaller molehills out of molehills.

4. Refuse to give in to the hype.

5. Choose to be agile rather than afraid.

6. Shake a fist, make an angry face and spit loudly when the words recession, economic downturn, slump and crisis are heard.

7. Promise to work smarter and opt in to success.

8. Draw a handlebar mustache and glasses on the face of the recession, if it had one.

9. Don’t just survive, flourish.

10. Make really great lemonade.
