Wow, how many times have I heard that? When you have been out of work for months, or even a year or more, you begin to wonder - Is it just me? So, what can you do about shaky self-esteem?
This is when a thorough self-assessment and active volunteer life can come to your rescue. So often after hearing repeated responses of "sorry we chose another candidate..." it is easy to wonder "what did they have I don't?" Reviewing a list of accomplishments, and skills you developed in a self-assessment can remind you of all the good qualities you bring to table. Volunteering for a local youth, community or religious group can allow you to utilize, and maybe pass along, many of those qualities and keep the sword sharpened.
At some point, costs may become an important issue for you, It's March Madness and I sure am not putting out the bucks for Session tickets even though there are first round games right here in
Tulsa. However, I can invite over some friends, and enjoy the broadcasts on cable. I am not planning a lake vacation, but I can pack a nice picnic lunch and visit the lake for the day now that temperatures are moderating.

We have to take the time and plan positive experiences into our lives. Lord knows life will through enough negatives your way on a daily basis. If you take control of your time and plan to have some fun; to do some positive things using your skills and experience, you will become your own #1 morale booster. Not only that, but who knows who you might meet during one of those positive experiences-your next boss maybe ?
