Work At Home or Not

   It is so frustrating to find work these days. It seems like people discriminate over the smallest issues. It's not fair in some ways for people who desire to work. It seems like they are the ones who can't find a job anywhere. Things seem backward. It is discouraging when you walk away from an interview thinking you have got the job, and a week later you receive a denial letter in the mail. What is one to do when you need extra income? Find ways to work at home, make your own schedule, and get customers to come to you, seem like the obvious answer, but is it?
   It is difficult to find online work as well as in a public place, especially if you have a minor setback that is only visible to those who look deep enough.  When you start your own business, then you invite people in your own home, however the case maybe. There is no simple solution to the question mentioned above.  Some say the answer is to go get a degree in the field you wish to work. Then you have another problem, where will you get the money to go back to school, or to even go to school?  Some people are still paying of their college debt and will always be paying it off in some form or fashion.  It is really not fair either way.  If you have a degree, will the debt ever be paid off, will you actually make a profit from the degree you earned? If you do not have a degree, then you will not be educated enough.  So what is the answer to job loss? What is the answer to education?
   There is no real rhyme or reason why one could not be hired to work in a factory, unless you have too much education, then you will be denied because of the very fact you are over qualified. If you do not have some form of qualification you can't be hired at all.  Sooner or later something has to give.  It doesn't make any sense. Once get a little ways up the ladder, one always falls back a step or two. Will the answer always be hidden or was it there all along. Does it really matter who you know or who you are? Connections always seem to have a major role in the task of job seeking. So knowing someone must matter in some cases.  However, if you know no one at all and have the skills to help the company advance, how do you get your name out there, if they won't listen?
  Working at home may or may not be a solution to many, but it will allow one to gain experience and skills in order to perform a task outside the home. If one can find freelance work in the field he or she wishes to work in, twill hat will allow one to have a step up above everyone else, or will it be a down fall? It seems that one must have skills and education in order to succeed in the world, but you must also have good communication skills as well.  There is nothing more discouraging going into an interview knowing someone else will get the job, based on the long life relationship with the employer, but I guess that is how it works in society.  ---Never let it rest till your good is your better and your better is your best--

Food For Thought

A journaling topic that Kim Erickson suggests is as following, " Write some things that happened this week that got in the way of your having a joyful day."   Well,  honestly, I could sit down forever and talk about this topic.  It's these kind of affirmations that have really gotten me through the day.  I wish I had known about them when I was younger.  Middle School and High school might have been a little easier.  However, I never really had any bullies attack me then.  At that time, the only real bully was my inner-self.  I stayed positive and always tried to keep my mind on God and things that do not concern this world.  Happy places, quiet places, and dreaming about far off worlds usually kept my mind busy.   That is how it is today as well, but sometimes, having a reminder every now and then doesn't hurt.   Not everyone is going to be your friend, and not every one is going to send positive vibes.  Sometimes you have to do it yourself, you have to wake up thi

for Thursday

s   I have been reviewing products for a while now.  I usually try to pick items that I actually want to use on a day to day basis.  Excitingly, this is one of the recent items I earned in exchange for an honest", unbiased", opinion.  My opinion is that it is "awesome!"     I will use this bag every time I go to the gym to workout.  Of course, my definition of "working out," is not the same as everyone else's definition yet, but I am stepping  higher each time.  Having fancy gym attire is not required, but definitely very, very helpful.    I am sure that people will eventually get tired of hearing about this bag, I am proud to own it.  I would have paid the full amount for this bag.  It has many, many pockets and a place for your water bottle as well.  It not only can be used as a gym bag, but as a travel bag also.  I love the length of the shoulder strap.  The best part about the shoulder strap is the padding they added for extra support.    Thi

Ten Ways I Stay Motivated

1.  Start the day with prayer or meditation. 2. Brew a good cup of coffee. 3.  Go over my list of goals. 4.  Set new goals ones the old ones are accomplished. 5.  Listen to motivational podcasts or youtube videos. 6.  Read biographies of people who have survived cancer or some amazing trauma.  This helps to remind me that no problem is too big for God. 7.  I try to look in the mirror and say affirmations every morning.  Some of these affirmations are the same ones and some are different.  8. Try to keep a good, constant routine. 9.  Write or draw in my journal. 10.  Reward myself for accomplishments.  After all, you deserve it. Hope you have a wonderful week !!
