Find Things To Do
Moreover, you should keep in mind that unemployment should be part-time and it just a temporary defeat, try to view crisis from another perspective. If you do not have job now, try to use your free time usefully. For example, you can get started to learn a new language, change your CV, and visit different seminars and trainings that are available.
For example, one of my friends lost his job just five months ago due to retrenchment. However, he is a very happy person because he spends his free time very usefully. He had visited many differnt concerts, yoga lessons and has found a girlfriend. He thinks that our full-time job destroys our life because it consumes all our time. I think and believe that he is right because people spend at work at least eight hours a day.
Avoid Being A Workaholic
I know of some people who are real workaholic. They cannot imagine their life without work. Sometimes, I think that they are living only in order to work. They had forgotten that life is great and very short. We should use every moment of our life in order to be happy. Of course, we should not forget about our own future. It would be very stupid to think that future does not exist. We also should think what we are going to eat and do tomorrow. If you remember these rules, your life will be great.
Another friend who likes to travel during the time when he does not work. Once he was out of work for three months. During that period of free time, he could have visited almost all European countries and get has met his future wife. Now he had found his new work with another company. Moreover, he has had three great children now. I think that losing of job was a big gift and experience that helped him completely change his narrow outlook of life.
In conclusion, if you happend to lose your job due to no fault of yours, try to use time usefully to overcome life obstacles. It is the only method to avoid depression and keep yourself happy as you learn that life without a job is still livable.
