Pursuing Meaningful Work Episode 086 – Have You Lost Your Job Recently?
Unemployment is an issue that has become very real to a lot of people around the world. Current unemployment numbers is at its highest for many years. Currently 10% of Americans are unemployed.
On Sat, Aug 21, you’ll hear my interview with Daniel Johnson, Jr., who’s a personal friend of mine. He too has become unemployed a few weeks back. You’ll learn how he has bounced back from being unemployed.
Have you found yourself in a place where you’ve been unemployed. Stay sane and keep a positive outlook.
1. Use it as a time to keep your skills current. Volunteer to tutor kids at a local school district. Volunteer to do a little computer work at a local library or somewhere.
2. Take some time to develop some new skills. Do the things you’ve been wanting to do for a while. If you go online, there’s all kinds of tutorials to do things.
3. Use your time off to find work that would be a better fit. Go to ONet.org. Do a thorough search there on the types of jobs that might fit your personality.
