Wall Street's got a weight loss plan? Haven't they got other things to think about right now? Perhaps they've all been looking in the mirror and decided that a change of image might not be such a bad idea! Slim and lithe might do the public perception of the nation's top bankers a bit of good - best to try and not look so well-off and well fed, perhaps.
Whatever the case, what we are witnessing is what happens when excess and greed gets out of hand. It has been allowed to go on for so long that the very survival of the 'institution' has been brought into question. It is not in a healthy state.
So what's this got to do with weight loss? Well, being overweight or obese has got something to do with excess and greed too. That may seem to be a little strong, but there is an element of truth which few people would probably deny. The consequences are likely to be very similar too - a breakdown in health.
Change is the only thing that is going to save Wall Street. If it wants to return to better health, it is going to have to learn new habits and change its behaviour.
With a little help from a more vigilant regulator it can successfully learn new habits and enjoy a healthy future.
The same applies to us. Sometimes we need to be brought up short to realize the error of our ways - as in Wall Street. We all know in our heart of hearts that the bill for our excesses and our greed is going to have to be paid someday.
If Wall Street is having to put its house in order, it might be a timely prompt? It's time for all of us to put an end to excess and shape up!
Events on Wall Street show us that sometimes things have to change or survival is put at risk. In the same way, we have to make personal change if we are to lose weight and secure our health and survival. To do this we must do what they are doing on Wall Street right now - to recognize the behaviors that caused the problems in the first place and then learn new habits. Learning new habits will determine new behaviors. Only when we learn new habits can we secure lasting change. - 15359
