Manufactured Housing Re-Birth

For anyone who has been in a delivery room, you already know what the final stage of the birthing process is like. Birth involves pain. New birth is also excitement, joy, fear and a host of other emotions. When one speaks of a re-birth, Nicodemus' famous question "How can a man be born again?" could be paraphrased and echoed, "How can an Industry be born again?"

The answer is no surprise. As with a natural human birth, an industry rebirth takes place through pain, joy, fear, hope and a host of other dynamics.

Birth is amazing, but it is not necessarily “pretty.” So should we be surprised if an Industry rebirth is less than a pretty picture?

Before the birth, there is the gestation period. For we humans, that lasts about 9 months. I wish we could say that an Industry re-birth would only take 9 months! You can't press any analogy too far, at some point analogies all limp. No exception with this one. This industry rebirth will take time, it already has taken some years.

Imagine a moment in time before Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. After hundreds of failed efforts, after some tests with very limited success towards making the incandescent bulb, some observers may have thought Edison mad.

But Edison persisted, holding fast to his vision, persisting in his efforts. Edison not only invented the light bulb, but also the phonograph (for you really young folks, that came way before iPods, CDs and cassettes) and over 1000 other patented items. Success at the new or visionary always comes with a price, but it also comes with a reward for those who stay the course and make it work.

We had light before Edison's electric bulb. But what came as a result of his light was arguably better. I believe the same will be true for our Industry.

So for those involved in various aspects of the re-birth of manufactured housing, take heart! Plan and share your vision. Enjoy the successes along the way. Accept the periodic slings and arrows of outrageous fortune. But know that the re-birth is coming. Being a part of it will have its rewards. ##
