Going back to the basics.

With the world's economy in a decline and depression on the doorsteps, many of us will have to re-examine our lifestyles and choose to go back to the basics.

We may have to cut off any excess fats and stay lean to survive this difficult period. Some of us may not have a choice but I give my respects and admiration's to this man .He chose to down size his lifestyle so that he could enjoy a better life with his family.

Peter Durose was a supermarket boss who made £250,000 per month excluding bonuses for Tesco and downsized for his own corner grocery shop and a much better family life .

Going back to the basics.The very type of grocery shops that those supermarkets are squeezing them out or make them redundant.

He chose the path of having less money but a more happier and meaningful family life.He switched from the fast lane to the slow lane and enjoy his new found freedom.He was his own boss and able to control his life and where he wanted to go .

Holding such a high position in an organization and getting highly paid is not without its price.You may have to pay a very high price for the fame or the money .

You will have no time for your family or loved ones.Even though you have a lot of money and can afford a lot of things which others cannot.

But having all those money but no life is not an ideal situation. One should seek a balance in life ,for life is not all about money . It is about sharing love and togetherness.

It is about the quality and the intangibles like love , kindness ,emotions and togetherness. You cannot put a price on those intangibles.
