WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO





The news and the media can scare people. If it is negative which it almost always is, then it can trigger a negative domino effect on peoples behavior and thoughts. This is made worse during a recession or when stress levels are high. 
 When you don't know what to do in life, it is more than likely because you are stressed and are unable to think clearly.

The best thing to do is to come up with some long and short term goals. Then, it would be a good idea to talk to a life coach, career coach, therapist or councilor. Try research the best one in your area to suit your needs.

It's better to use a professional rather than a friend because you don't need friendly comfort but clear thought guidance.

When I was not sure what to do, I went to a career coach because I realised my problem was to do with my job. Then, my coach and I came up with a strategy of how to get me from A to B. It was a weight of my shoulders and enabled me to think more clearly and focussed.

Remember people, businesses, media etc always have agendas so learn how to think above it and not to get dragged into their ideas.

UNEMPLOYED, BORED AND FEELING DEPRESSED

A couple of months ago, I googled  ‘unemployed and bored’ because my head was about to melt off from doing absolutely nothing at home.  Subsequently, I found a couple of blogs so I thought I would do something similar. I was so depressed about being unemployed and was ashamed of my circumstances even though I knew it was not my fault. Being out of work is something that everyone will have to face at some point during their life and there are ways to get through it. Believe me I have been there. After graduating, about a third of my class emigrated overseas to look for work.  This was not for me so I went back to college to study for a Masters.  After I graduated again, I was in and out of work like a yo-yo doing different internships and so on trying to gain experience. I suffered a lot in the process but I learned a lot about myself during that time.   So, from my experiences, I thought I would share some of my tips for being unemplo...

ANXIETY PROBLEMS

If you have never suffered from anxiety count yourself very lucky as it is a very common form of mental illness that causes significant stress. I never thought I would ever suffer from it but after finding myself unemployed again, my mental state was becoming very weak and I felt life was suffocating me. Here is how I got to my lowest point. Taking a desperate and wrong choice With no work in sight after my previous TV contract expired, I decide to return to journalism but this time to print journalism.  With few positions around,  I begin a short business course because there is jobs in business reporting. Do I like the business field? No. Do I find it boring? Yes. Why I am I doing it? I have no idea but I’ve nothing else to do.  Doing something you don't want to do is a waste of time because you will never have a passion for it.  Being unsure in work can make you stressed My plan works though because a sunday paper allows me to come in an...
