Let your strength from the pastprovide proof of your abilities to . . .conquer the difficulties of the present.

You’ve had many ordeals in the past. During these ordeals, life seemed unbearable. You may have collapsed from the exhaustion of hopelessness and curled into a fetal position. Regardless of how difficult this new ordeal may be, as with the others, this too will be overcome. It will make you stronger.

Life is about finding . . .what works best for you.

My first bit of advice is to not personalize a job loss. The cause for the dismissal was a business calculation. This is difficult for many to grasp; it’s difficult to accept that events just occur. Come to see this as an experience. Obviously not the most pleasant experience, but it is one that you’ll overcome.

Until a job is outsourced or streamlined through an innovation, an employee is trained to operate robotically. This is what a brand is.
