The Awakening
During Covid, people learned new hobbies, re-evaluated what was important to them and built up much-needed financial reserves.
We saw ‘the great resignation’.
And we worried about what the future held.
But crucially, we got through it. We found a new resilience and became adaptable to change – all very important assets for the years ahead.
Post Covid, people are quickly reverting back to their old habits and ways of living.
Financial reserves are dwindling as we reward ourselves with things we were denied during the lockdown such as expensive travel, eating out and shopping for luxury items.
From my own personal perspective, 2022 was a year of awakening to what is now beginning to look like the new normal.
Professionally, it was a great year for Ironfish because our culture and structure is such that we have the ability to adapt, to change, to look at ways to reinvent ourselves and to see opportunities where others may see challenges.
If you apply these qualities to yourself as an individual, I can guarantee you will be in a better place, personally and financially, than those who do not.
The future – trends set to define 2023
At Ironfish, we’re calling 2023 the year that defines the next decade. Why? Because it’s the beginning of our new normal – of living with Covid, global crisis and economic uncertainty.
While on the surface you can read that as not great news, I can highly recommend the art of getting on with the business of living and creating your own future no matter what the external factors may be.
I’m an eternal optimist – and at Ironfish, we live by the philosophy that the next year is always a good year, as it’s based on our core values of putting our customers at the heart of everything we do. In our eyes, any year that gets you on the property ladder, or further along, heading towards your goals faster – is a good year.
