5 Ways to Stay Motivated When You’re Out of Work

Let’s be real finding a full-time job is a full-time job. It can be tough staying motivated during the holidays. I understand how much of a major challenge it can be. However, this time also presents a great opportunity to compile resources and get a jump start on (or continue) your search. 

Before you think about taking a prolonged break – it is best to remain engaged. Flexible is crucial to finding opportunities to learn about your field and interacting with the people. 

You never know who can help you launch a career because it is not just about landing a job. Just 1-2 hours of diligent work each day will help you feel more prepared to take on the New Year! Here are a few ways to stay motivated when the job market seems unyielding and your home base may be rife with distractions. 

A Prayer For Inspiration, Creativity, and Energy

I often pray for inspiration, creativity, and energy. There are days that I need for God to guide me to create touching blog posts, characters for book ideas, and even YouTube videos. Prayer keeps me going and uplifted. It's key to remember that with God you lack nothing. You may have something in mind that you want to work on. You are searching for guidance. Don't let fear stand in your way and embrace God for inspiration. 

When People Reveal Themselves Believe Them

In life there comes a satisfaction from learning when someone reveals themselves to you. It can take days, months, or even years to realize that we were blinded by someone’s true colors.
