Career Development - Planning Your Success

Today, it is fairly common to have people changing careers more than once. In fact, there are people who choose careers that are entirely different from those that they have previously held before. There will come a point when you will have to consider a career change, so it is a good idea to know about career development beforehand. Of course, you donò€™t have to change jobs just to have career advancement. You can make it your goal to climb the ranks in the same company.

I Just Lost My Job And I Am So Mad!

Perhaps it is because no one wants to hire an angry person.  You are angry at the situation, and you have good reason to be.  But, no matter how hard you try to conceal this anger, it shows through in the interview.  I have interviewed numerous people who I can tell have a chip on their shoulder, just by the way they walk into my office.  I don"t want to hire someone like that.  And in today"s economy, I don"t have to.

My suggestion is to delay your anger until you get a new position.  Then you can get angry.  For now, your focus has to be on getting a job, and in order to do that you need to stay positive.  Just like you make sure you wear the right outfit to an interview and your shoes are polished, you must also bring the right attitude.  You need to be positive, cheerful, and energetic.  You are not a good enough actor to hide your anger.  Therefore you can"t be angry.

Here"s what I suggest:

*Don"t be angry, and tell your spouse/significant other not to be angry.  What happened is in the past, and you and people around you need to look forward.  You can"t stay positive if others around you are angry for you. Don"t be afraid to tell them to stop, and tell them why.

*Get into a routine.  Get up on time, eat breakfast, and then go to the computer and telephone to start your jobð€¦which right now is finding a job.

*Read the paper first thing in the morning every day.

*Start an exercise routine.  Physical exercise is good for the body, and great for the mind.  (There are numerous articles that support this premise.)

*Start a new hobby.  Try gardening or woodworking.

*Get involved in a charitable organization.  Besides giving you something to do, (and this is another venue for networking) you will be exposed to people who are much worse off than you, and most of them have a positive attitude.

So remember, stay positive.  When you get your next job, you can get angry then.  But maybe, just maybe, you will realize all things worked out for the best.  Good Luck.
