Your Job Search… Is Your New Job!
So many people freak out when they get laid-off. They drift into depression and usually spend the first month or two watching TV or surfing the internet. By the time month three comes around they have used half of their allotted UEI benefits and have not seriously tackled the job hunt. Not good.
The better way of approaching the job search is to treat the job search as if it were your new full-time job. I’m not saying to work the job search eight hours a day, but to spend a good three to four hours each and every day on securing a new career position that is worth eight hours of your valuable time five days a week.
Not having a job that creates an income and provides a sense of purpose in one’s life can cause the following:
? Depression
? Loss of job skills
? Loss of self respect
? A shrinking savings account
? Possible tensions arising in your marriage and relationships
? Loss of purpose in life
? Financial stress of not having an income
? Uncertainty of what the future holds for you and your family
? Life’s plans put on hold
By focusing your time in securing new employment you will bypass most, if not all, of the above mentioned problems associated with unemployment. For example, set the hours of 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. aside every day to focus on your job search. Get dressed as if you were to be going to a job each day and focus on selling you and your skills to those employers who you feel would be the best place to re-start your career.
Every day you now have a plan and purpose to stay engaged with your continued success. It is your choice! So make sure you make the right choice!
