Imagine something unexpected happens. Your travel plans get cancelled. Your income is reduced, or an unexpected illness is encountered.
The default reaction is to get very upset and say why me? It does not seem to be fair! You have gone through a lot already and this was the last thing you needed. Your every step of recovery is encountered by constant grief and resistance to moving on.
You may also respond by acknowledging the loss and then turn the situation into wonder! You may wonder what gifts this difficult situation may bring you (remember Universe is on your side). Of course, you may not know the answer yet, but changing your focus has several quick benefits.
With the above mindset, you are not bitter, you are more creative, and you are more relaxed. People around you respond with more ease and care towards you. The recovery step is surprisingly more pleasant than expected.
This concept is not just a theory. It has worked for me and I have experienced benefits of it.
Perhaps this approach can work for you too. You need to put it into practice to find out.

Such is life. We all have ups and downs. Unemployment may result in new employment that is much better than what one has been doing too long and should have changed some time ago.
