Those who succeed are those who are able to adapt and find solutions to those "problems"Hope that helps!

It's more about the tools you have in your bag and how you adapt-- a formal education in business and finance gives you the tools. $.02

Of course, I would not want to downsize and later find out that I am stuck in an area and space that I can't adapt to easily but I am always willing to try.Thanks
