Ajit Nawalkha argues that an individual’s personal economy is largely independent from the global economy and that crises create opportunities for people who act from abundance. He gives anecdotal evidence (including a 2008 crisis story about "Lisa") of authors, speakers, coaches who thrived by offering value during downturns and were later richly rewarded.

The global economy has little to nothing to do with your personal economy. Somebody I was talking to yesterday kept telling me how the economy shit and I was present to that economy is shit. Yes, but your economy actually has very little correlation with the global economy. And if you were to see any data at any point of financial challenges of the world economy, you'll find there were certain people that always benefited, not because they were bad people, but because they were able to understand that the global economy has little to nothing to do with your personal economy. There is opportunity in times when there are times of crisis. Crisis. It's your opportunity to show up in context of the crisis. I know not one, but many authors, speakers, trainers, coaches that have actually thrived when the times were bad. I'm sure Lisa has shared the story before in her life at some point when there was 2008 crisis. And at that time she was invited to speak at a lot of stages and a lot of people were like, we can't afford you. And she said, don't worry about it, I got you. And she acted from a place of abundance, acted from a place of money, acted a place from where she was giving more than thinking about what she can take. And when the economy did heal, do you think she was much more handsomely rewarded by the same people who were still doing those events, were still doing those things, and now they were grateful and thankful and they were paying more than what they would have ever paid her? That's right.
