Be prepared for change

falczuk

I lost my job over a year ago and never thought It would take this long to find another one. I've found myself having to be more creative lately to make ends meet and am considering a real change in career. Be open to reinventing yourself in order to survive this difficult job market.

I found myself saying this quite often since it has been a year of not working steady. I am open to reinventing myself but confused on what it is I would like to do, I know I want to help people I achieve so much satisfaction when I assist someone in solving their problem. I also thought about helping young teenage boys in the age range of 16 to 21 years old. Maybe setting up programs where they could come for assistance with school work to seeking employment or even training.
