Out of work

Many of us will experience this.

Numbness is often a reaction, a sort of disbelief.

Self-pity can set in.

So called friends disappear, people do not really want to hear your story.

It is your reality so keeping your self-respect is critical.

You are unlikely to impress a potential employer if you are down and defeated.

Did your sense of humour desert you as well then go and get it back!

Life is not a job, job is part of life.

Life is not money, money is part of modern life.

Get in touch with your real values, those things you could not do while you were working, time to smell the flowers again.

Use your time wisely, spend time finding a solution to your situation, do something every day to advance this.

Give time to yourself consider what do I really want to do with my life?

What is truly important to me?

Find what is truly important to you then figure out how to make money from this activity. Not the other way around.

Good luck!
