Our expectations determine how we respond. Be careful what you expect.
If we have no identity apart from our jobs, we are truly vulnerable.
To look for a job before looking deeply inward is likely to short-circuit the process of finding your calling.
Change, even if unwelcome, forces us to reevaluate what our best options are. Those times of transitions are great opportunities to look for recurring patterns in your life and make adjustments to build on the good and reduce the bad.
It's easy to focus on the things that divide us. Sometimes too easy.
Your security is determined by your ability to define what it is you do that has value. The clearer you can be on what it is you do well and what provides value for someone else, the more security you have.
