The crisis we are living through today is definitely very serious, and almost every country is suffering strong recessions on its economy. People are just suffering the very consequences of this. The country will stop generating as much income as it generated before, which forces them to lower employment rates. Consequently, people run out of income sources and they decide to not spend on health, clothes, entrainment, etc. anymore. Finally, people that work on these businesses stop having as much clients as before. Then the cycle begins again. As you can see, the crisis appears to be unstoppable. It is your choice to fight it and survive.
It is true; you have no power over the decisions of your country or their economical activities. There is no direct way in which you can actually take your reality out of the crisis. However, your household, your income and your spending rates are something you can manage anytime. Imagine these things as part of your own little country. Observe the mistakes that are being made by your real country and avoid making them on your personal economy. Don't borrow more than you can actually pay for; set your priorities in order to spend on the most important things before others, etc. This technique can help anyone visualise their households as a totally different system. Make your personal economy your own business. Don't manage it as a home economy, but do it as if it was a company. Reduce the amount of money spent on unnecessary stuff, and try to improve your income.
