Is there a silver lining to job loss?

JobsDB.com Singapore thinks that there is.

In job loss, your source of income disappears and your confidence shatters. But there IS a silver lining to this employment downfall -- it makes one realize a lot of things. Losing a job is never pretty, but it can be used as a motivation for career success. They say that every dark cloud has a silver lining; the silver lining in losing a job is that it will make you realize your full potential. Losing your job is not the end of the world, rather it's AN event that will open you to better opportunities.

Acceptance is the most difficult part of dealing with job loss, but you HAVE to move on. Try to review the circumstances that have caused your loss. Pick up the pieces so you can decide on a new path to follow.

The keyword here is HOPE. Losing hope is a destructive attitude in this situation. Make job hunting your full time job and don't be discouraged as you won't be doing all the rough work alone. Jobs websites like JobsDB.com Singapore, newspapers, and your contacts will lend you a hand.

Think of job loss as an opportunity to reconnect with your family and friends. They can help get some of the frustrations out.

Take advantage of the free time! Attend career seminars and trainings. Learn new skills. Or go back with your old hobby. Doing these things will not only keep your outlook positive but also make your CV more precious to employers. We suggest you attend Career Events' latest seminar, Peak your interview performance. Learningdb.com also has a bunch of helpful training events scheduled for this month.

What we're saying here is that positivity is the key to defeat job loss. Playing the blame game isn't going to help you in anyway. JobsDB.com Singapore wishes you good luck with your job re-hunt.
