Motivation...

That's something that is definitely needed to make it and when I say "make it" I mean achieve your goals.  It's crazy out here in this economy man fo'real, this job hunt thing is a battle.  We are in a time that is so tough in the job market that you almost kinda have to find some faith just to apply, you get what I'm talking about.  It's like you have to fight that doubt that tries to set in at times when you're going out to an interview or applying online.  But I just thank God for everything and keep my head up and keep applying.  I was at Starbux and I was talking to this older guy who had his degree and all that and he lost his job in Colorado.  He spent all is savings and emergency money trying to make ends meet down there and when that was all out he had to move back to CT to live with his family members.  The one thing that I remembered most about him was that he kept his sense of humor, the whole time him and I were talkin' he was just telling jokes and stuff.  Now that I think about it he probably was laughing to keep from crying.  But hey, what can you do about the economy...nothing...I tell myself that I can't control the economy, but I can control my budget and I can control the number of times I apply.  So I met up with some financial adivsors to give me some sound advice and now I'm back appying for jobs again.  I'm doing the best I can with what I got and I now that God is going to bless me, but in the meantime I'm just fighting to be faithful.  One thing that put a smile on my face when I was down because I don't have the job I want nor do I have a job that requires my degree is that this economy is affecting everyone and it's not my fault that things are going the way they are, you know.  So if you feeling down, maybe you don't have the job you won't and you graduated and are now applying to a stiff job market, just remember that you are not the only one affected that everyone is feeling the affect of the economy.  Keep applying and keep working!! stay up and stay prayerful!!
