This Website will help you make it through the nightmare of
unemployment. The initial fears may be financial but the
deeper and more destructive impact is on your psyche: your
emotions, your self-esteem, your view of yourself and the world.
You tell yourself, over and over, "I have to get a job."
Every time you think that phrase, you dig
yourself deeper into a black hole: your mind goes to work
spawning self-destructive, self-defeating, critical,
negative patterns and you lose your self-confidence, your
self-respect, your belief in your own value.
I cannot give you the job you want. I cannot make
unemployment an easy, stress-free, comfortable condition.
What I can do is to give you the tools to transform
a threatening predicament into something positive:
a chance to start over, to change yourself for the
better, to take this time for what it can be -- an
opportunity for self-exploration and personal growth.
