Tips to Note –

 

Confidence is the number one thing a potential teacher will need in order to start teaching. The more confident you are the easier the opportunity will be. TEFL/TESOL training will improve your teaching ability. However, many persons start teaching without it even though their options are limited because of this.

A whole new world will open up if you decide to teach English even for a year.

Depression halts work and rational thoughts

 

Depression

We all have negative feelings or pains that come from a failure at some point our lives. Being unemployed enhances this feeling even more.  Depression plays serious tricks on the mind that can even sometimes be deadly.

Sometimes we may even feel as if though we are complete failures. However, this thought is an irrational thought. In this episode, I share my personal experience with unemployment and depression.

2 : 00 – Unemployed with savings Vs without savings

 

3 : 20 – Deep depression

 

4 : 39 – Desperation and self-pity because of unemployment

 

4 : 54 – Don’t waste a good depression

7 : 01 – How to restart your job search

 

8 : 05 – Being employed VS Your purpose for living

10 : 40 – Set a schedule and have a routine for every day

 

12 : 30 – Start a hobby – especially one that can eventually get you paid

 

Tips to Note –

Regardless of how you might feel, know that you will be employed again no matter how long it takes. Good employees are hard to find. Maybe, being unemployed may even spark your own entrepreneurial spirit. So you might even start your own business. However, positive things will not happen until you change your mindset and start to do something productive.
