Conquer Economic Uncertainty

Career Ownership Provides Relief During ‘Dog Days’ of Summer

Embrace the dog days of summer and conquer economic uncertainty by taking ownership of your career.

The dog days of summer and current events are causing many Americans to simply go through the motions of their jobs without hope or optimism. The endless string of hot, humid days, coupled with economic uncertainty caused by the pandemic, are prompting cases of Battered Career Syndrome to skyrocket. For the past 36 years, The Entrepreneur’s Source has believed taking ownership of one’s career has allowed people to achieve financial security and offer the inspiration needed to achieve career success.

“The dog days of summer and a lack of job security leave many Americans bruised and battered at this time of year. Taking time to discover your Income, Lifestyle, Wealth and Equity goals is key to achieving self-sufficiency,” said Terry Powell, Visionary Founder of The Entrepreneur’s Source, the nation’s leading career ownership franchise.

This period of hot and humid weather corresponds to the rising of Sirius, the Dog Star, according to The Farmer’s Almanac. The combination of the sweltering temperatures and the bright light of Sirius during mid-July and August prompted the now-common phrase, the “dog days” of summer. In ancient Greece and Rome, the hot weather of the dog days of summer marked a time of drought, bad luck and upheaval. Our weather this summer is living up to its dog days moniker and is expected to hit record high temperatures as the season progresses. The summer of 2019 was one of the hottest summers ever, and June 2020 set records as the earth’s third-hottest month on earth, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association.

The Entrepreneur’s Source can’t change the temperature outdoors, but the Southbury, Connecticut-based company can help bring back the simple pleasures of summer days by offering possibilities for your future.

Career Ownership Affords Peace of Mind and Financial Security

Individuals who suffer from Battered Career Syndrome face little to no job security and high employee turnover. If your corporate career has left you battered and bruised, a career ownership coach at The Entrepreneur’s Source can help you discover different possibilities to alleviate uncertainty and motivate you this summer. Career ownership also allows you to diversify your portfolio and move some of your retirement funds out of the volatile stock market and into an investment you can control.

Career Ownership Offers Flexibility and Work-Life Balance

Many Americans do not have the freedom to enjoy the warm summer months at the beach or hit the open road with the family on a road trip. Their careers do not provide the flexibility and financial freedom to enjoy fun summer vacations. Career ownership offers a better work-life balance. Entrepreneurs control their own schedules and can often work remotely, which makes summer vacations a breeze.
