Thought – 11-3-11

Unemployment is percieved as a death sentence for some and a gift for others.  No matter which category you fall under,  it is important that you prepare your mind and stabilize your emotions so that you can close that chapter in your life and open the next one!

For many, the job defines who and what you are.  For others “the job” is an excuse used to forgo the exploration of passions and dreams.  Someone once told me: 

that it is only after you lose everything, that you’re free to do anything….

Once you truly believe that you are free to do anything, then you can follow your passions and dreams.  Perhaps for the 1st time in your life, you can live a rich and full life on your terms.  Just remember that whichever path you choose, you must take responsibility for it 100%.  If you are not responsible for what you can now control, you will go back to being dependent on what you cannot control!

I am on a quest to experience the potential rewards (freedom, independence, competence, excellence, effectiveness, fulfillment and wealthfor being 100% responsible for what I now control. 

How about you?
