In an effort to stay positive about my layoff situation........here are the Top 5 GOOD things that can come out of a layoff:
1. It may be the thing that is helping you to do something else and you wouldn't have ever had the guts to step out and try something different if the layoff hadn't happened.
2. You do a lot of evaluating in your life - deciding to change some things, figuring out what is important to you, what isn't, etc.
3. You find ways to cut costs - probably things you should've been doing for a while.....and might continue to do even after you find another job.
4. In an effort to save money, you go back to the basics in some ways.....and there's something very comforting about 'the basics'.
5. It motivates you to sharpen your skills and go back for some training/classes/education that you might not have taken the time for if you hadn't been laid off.
How's that for being POSITIVE?!
