While I was starting to share some of thoughts with you on the topic of how to take tough times in your stride I suddenly remembered a cartoo I saw long time ago. It was that of David and Goliath where, David sees Goliath tinier than him though the picture of Goliath is hundred times magnified, as printed on the cartoon book.

Disarming and Diffusing the Doomsayers

Surely you have met them. I had in my office one guy who always seemed to know what is going to happen in the future for our company, our promotions, the market in which we operated, the fate of the government along with inflation rates.
