QUICK TIP: DON'T GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS
"The chief cause of failure and unhappiness is trading what you want
most for what you want now." ~ Zig Ziglar
When the market crashed last year, many people faced the loss of jobs,
homes and nest eggs. The natural tendency was to circle the wagons and
do what you needed to protect yourself and your family. Understandable.
As a result, many people felt that their career dreams had become
unreachable. While it may be true that your future vision has to be put
on hold, remember that this recession will not last forever. And when it
passes, you want to be ready.
Use this time to prepare. If you're unemployed, certainly do what you
need to do right now to pay your bills. But instead of using down time
to surf the Net or watch TV to numb the fear and depression, use the
time to prepare for the future, when the recession lifts. Now is the
perfect time to learn and do research. While you may not be able to
afford to go back to school for an advanced degree just yet, you can be
taking books out of the library, volunteering and doing informational
interviews with people in your dream career.
By using this time to continue moving toward your dreams, you'll put
yourself in a better position to move ahead when the recession lifts.
Having some sense of control will alleviate the fear and give you a
sense of hope and optimism. Remember, our new motto is, "Yes, we can."
So, let's get to work and do it!
