No Matter How Good You Are, Your Salaried Job Won’t Last Forever
Some people love being in paid employment being in paid employment. But in life, nothing lasts forever.
Even if you’re the most competent person in your company, you could lose your job.
How?
Well, the company could run into some bad fortune, and have to close shop.
The owner could sell it to a bigger company who may decide to do a manpower shuffle. That process could make them ask anyone who does not fit into their plans to leave.
The problem is that seldom do people who get asked to leave see it coming. Especially those who love salaried employment.
That’s why when it happens, it typically throws them into panic and confusion.
They can be at a loss about what to do. Sometimes, this leads to depression, especially they are unable to get another job, or find something else to do, to earn income.
Implications of Jobs Loss Will Differ for Every Individual
From unmarried young persons, to aging career persons with spouses and kids.
In each situation, the pressures -0 social and financial – will differ. Those who have dependants are likely to experience more challenges dealing with the sudden loos of income, than those who are single, and living alone.
Having said that, most times a job loss has more than financial implications for those affected.
There are psychological implications as well. Most responsible adults like to feel they are being productive or useful.
For instance, it can be frustrating to find yourself with nothing to do, and nowhere to go on a Monday morning. Especially if for months or years you’ve been going out to a 9 to 5 or even shift job.
Not everyone is Self-directed and Can Easily Switch to Entrepreneurial Mode: Yet, Doing So Can Turn the Disappointment of Job Loss into the Blessing of a Lifetime!
I know not everyone would prefer to start a business when they lose their jobs.
However during the phase when you’re searching for another job, you might want to consider doing something entrepreneurial, to get some cash in, and to fund your new job search.
When you get the job, you may then choose to stop.
Or you could keep doing it on the side – so you can have something to fall back on when you retire. And it would contribute an additional income stream even while you’re employed.
Success in life is often about using bad experiences as stepping stones to good experiences you want.
Or turning unpleasant circumstances to your advantage.
Successful people do that habitually. And that’s why they succeed!
In other words, the job loss served as a wake up call for them. But they only succeeded because they chose to respond to that call.
Those who fail do so because they choose to sit down and moan about life being unfair to them.
Take my advice: Don’t be like them, and waste a valuable opportunity to GROW, and succeed!
Most People Squander the Opportunity to Use a Job Loss Experience to Move Higher In Life
They immediately adopt a negative view of it, refusing to see any useful outcome it might bring.
One reason I believe this happens is that today’s humans have lost their inner sight. By this I mean the ability to see beyond to immediate and obvious.
To competently use their sixth sense to make accurately interpret experiences they have.
As I’ve said in a past article, our increasing dependence on the comforts of technology, is responsible for creating that weakness in us.
That’s why some of us easily panic and experience frustration when things go wrong. They are unable to sense the hidden or underlying benefit to be had from it.
YOU Can Be One of the Rare Exceptions!
You can make your story different. Not just for yourself, but for the sake others who will be inspired by your consequent achievements.
If you’re reading this article because of someone you know/care for, that’s what you need to tell him/her when you send the URL across.
There’s no magic formula. And it’s not likely to be easy either.
But if you choose not to let the loss you’ve experienced get you down, it won’t.
Simply resolve to see it as what it is: a potential opportunity for you to improve your fortunes in life.
Don’t stop at just “seeing” it that way however.
Also think and act about it in a manner consistent with the positive view you’ve adopted.
For instance, every single day explore new employment opportunities, business start up ideas or other avenues to success.
Intelligently seek guidance from competent others to making productive use of your time and efforts.
As time goes on, the results you get will help you decide what areas to focus on more.
And eventually, you’ll discover what specific one to narrow down to, till you succeed.
No one can tell you exactly how the future will unfold for you.
But diligently apply yourself. And believe that your creator will guide you to take the right decisions, and meet the right persons.
Do that with determination and persistence, and you will eventually succeed.
