The past week my calls have yielded little results. I would say it was a cold week. Having this happen caused me to feel even more anxious. So during my weekly routine, I decided to take a break and I caught a glimpse of the news. I don’t watch news but this story caught my eye. The number of companies that have laid off this year is insane!
Times have changed because you rarely will run into someone who just retired after 35 years of service. I strongly feel those days are long gone. People right now are mad, depressed, feeling helpless, frustrated, and betrayed from being laid off. My friend was also one of them. Her cheese along with all the others had been taken away. But I wasn’t worried about this friend because I knew she had a NEW plan A, to find more cheese!
I said all that to say, after experiencing being laid off myself. I think it is important to create your own cheese, reinvent yourself. We are not disposable, but unique special individuals with a God given right to prosper! Find your purpose, find a passionate why and I wish you the best because you and I deserve it! Current situations have solidified my commitment to myself. All the meetings, networking, calls, and business trips are for my business. My cheese isn’t for the taking!
