Thinking Kindly About Your Business

Written on February 26th, 2010 by Helen Burton2 comments

Do you think and say kind words about your business? Unfortunately, most of us think about what is not going right.

When we have successes our feelings turn towards excitement and joy. Why is it so hard to focus on those times instead of finding things to worry about?

Simply, we are human beings and wired to think that way.

When you start thinking about your business in a negative way. Stop, take a deep breath and say in a powerful voice, kind words about your business. An example would be, “My business is achieving its goal by helping business people.”

Truer words have not been spoken, staying positive is not the easiest thing to do. The feelings of fear and sadness overwhelm us in a flash.

What are we to do?

My old stand-by is to let them come and know the feelings are temporary moments. You will make it through and the feelings will fade.

Fear Plays a Big Part in the Life of the Unemployed

Written on November 11th, 2009 by Helen Burtonno comments

Your own FEARS play such a big part in your life especially while traveling on the familiar unemployed path.

I once heard fear is “False evidence appearing real.” We are experts at telling ourselves we will never find another job, my family hates me because I am unemployed, I am a failure, etc… In reality none of these fears are true.

Being Selfish While on the Unemployed Journey

Written on November 3rd, 2009 by Helen Burton2 comments

Isn’t it ironic we spend most of our lives trying to please other people and never thinking about what would make us happy?

Then when we lose our job we blame ourselves and never take into consideration it could be a blessing in disguise. How many of us hated our job and always thought, “Only if I could find another job that I really loved?”

Sunnier Skies While Unemployed

While on our unemployed journey, Jason Rogerson’s quote is worth repeating to ourselves constantly.

I know right now we are only focusing on what is not happening instead of the fact this is just a small portion of our lives. A day, month or year is just a blip in our lives.

Tips for the Unemployed

Written on October 18th, 2009 by Helen Burtonno comments

I hear a lot of screaming in the background and everyone is shouting, “There has to be a better way!!” All of us on the unemployed journey are taking all the steps to find a new job and things are very slow.

What is a person to do? You feel frustrated, tired of trying new and old suggestions and not making any headway.

Special Message for the Unemployed

Written on October 11th, 2009 by Helen Burtonno comments

Geri Danks’ poem says it all…Life is a journey which leads us through bumps and curves. We experience sadness, anxiety, denial, happiness or contentment throughout the day.

The most important thing to remember is that we are the same person experiencing life in a different way. When scary feelings pop-up all we can do is say out loud, “I am really scared and know deep down in my heart I will find that perfect new job.”
