When we are faced with unwelcome changes in our lives like the loss of a job, it can be very hard to see the good in it. And let’s not pretend, there is a lot to not like about it. Having said that, one of the things I have learned through our partner, Dr. Andy Garrett and his Radical Resilience course, is that when we actively seek to find the benefits in something undesirable, it can have a massive impact on our mental wellbeing and the ability to not just survive a challenge but to actually thrive in the midst of it. On our weekly group coaching call this week we went through an exercise like this and the results were tremendous. We heard about things like: 🟡“It has given me the opportunity to catch up with long lost friends and colleagues” 🟡“It has given me the time to help my aging parents” 🟡“Through tools like StrengthsFinder, I have discovered qualities and talents I never realized I had before” 🟡“The pause in my routine gave me the space to see that I actually don’t want to do that anymore” The list goes on but the lesson is this. When one can find meaning in difficult times, one can go through anything with grace. #jobseekers #jobsearch #careercoach
Well said Bob!

Nailed it!
