The global economic condition needs to be a call to becoming competitive with aggressive intelligence, not a reason to give up. If anything, the more challenging the economic condition, the greater specialized knowledge and intelligence become to anyone attaining their career objectives. In good economic times the flexibility fo the job market is so elastic and agile it is relatively easy for anyone to get a job and launch a career. In the continual challenging economic times, it's the candidate who has the greatest depth, expertise, insight, intelligence and knowledge along with proven experience that gets the best career positions.
Knowledge And Trust Are The New Currencies
Watching the traffic on social networks, the social monitoring services that seek to create econometric models based on consumer preferences including those from The Economist, Edelman, The World Bank, and others all underscore a troubling fact. Mistrust and skepticism of organizations' motives is at an all-time high and it isn't showing signs of dropping anytime soon. The doom and gloom pundits who would have everyone think the global economy is in a permanent contraction just feed this skepticism and mistrust yet offer no path out of it (Quiggin, 356). If there is anything positive from the continual negative talk of these self-proclaimed experts and pundits, it's that they are turning real trust and consistency of performance into the most valuable asset there is for anyone. The ability of anyone to deliver on the promises they make, both personally and professionally, is the new currency. Looking at the future through the lenses of trust and knowledge, the future looks quite promising. Aspiring to be trusted, respected for a passion for learning, and to be one for the best in the field of forensic science seems much more secure and sure than any promise...
This is another data point of how the global economic conditions are driving companies to only hire those they can trust to meet and exceed their expectations. And for the student, the need to be passionate about being the very best at their field -- the call to excellence -- has never been louder. Instead of descending into the gloom and doom, students need to realize this is a call to excel at what they love.
Conclusion
How the global economy impacts my future is that it serves as a catalyst to concentrate on what more core abilities and resolve to be one of the best in the world at what I plan to do. That is a high goal but I feel that working to attaining anything less is to give up in an increasingly competitive, fast-paced, and very skeptical world. The global economy will open up pockets of opportunity for those who choose to invest in preparing for them now, not complaining about the economy now. Even in tough times the future is what you make it.
