Are there not jobs to go around, or what?
In answer to my question posted on 8-26-2011, no, there are not. "Work that fills you with energy" was the title of that blog, but having graduated in early May and having applied to and interviewed for hundreds of jobs, I can tell you that there aren't enough jobs to go around.
I could have a job if I had worked for a school that had a paid internship and an opening that next year--I didn't. I had two internships (unpaid), but both of them didn't have a position for me at the end of the internship.
So, what are you filled with when you don't have that job? Nothing!!!
You have to fill yourself with energy each and every day. You have to create a reason to get out of bed each morning. You have to make getting-a-job your new full-time job. Especially when your wife goes to work every day. Taking care of your children is also your full-time job.
You can be filled with that energy each day, even though you don't have a job to help you easily do that.
Work, work, work. It can fill you up and make you have the esteem that, if missing, can lead to sadness, or ultimately, depression.
Fill yourself up with work, even if nobody wants to give you any. Is a job the only thing in your life or what? You can think of a trillion things that you can work at.
Make yourself better; more marketable. A better manager; a better person. Make yourself the person that you've always knew you should be, but never thought you had that time.
Work, work, work.
