"Interestingly, koi, when put in a fish bowl, will only grow up to three inches. When this same fish is placed in a large tank, it will grow to about nine inches long. In a pond koi can reach lengths of eighteen inches. Amazingly, when placed in a lake, koi can grow to three feet long. The metaphor is obvious. You are limited by how you see the world."

Let's discuss economic "recovery" for local small businesses...

By the local Business Sherpa himself, Larry Battershell.

The longer I talk to small business owners around the Indianapolis area and listen to endless tales of woe, the more convinced I am that the much touted economic "recovery" is not either U shaped or W shaped but more of a descending staircase--down a few steps-plateau, down a few more steps--plateau,etc....guess its better than a fast plunge on free falling elevator....... I will keep looking for the "green shoots".
