Time flies, we are already two
weeks into 2014, 2013 is long gone and a year stretches ahead of us .
What are your plans, for 2014 ? To
set goals and ambitions down in some formalized way can help you to
keep track of them. Some methods are keeping a journal and writing
them in there, or downloading a free bucket list template. If you
truly cannot think of anything to inspire you, and being unemployed
and or unwell can certainly zap energy, enthusiasm and inspiration,
you can even find free bucket list ideas. Another good means of
inspiration is to Google things to do before..in my case...you are
60, since I am now 54, and another search for inspiration is the
possibly daunting....things to do before you die. Daunting perhaps,
but it does inspire...
Of course there are going to be
obstacles to some dreams, indeed that is often the reason they are on
a bucket or to do list in any case, plans to travel, to go to
University, to do a different job to the one you do, to become self
employed..are often thwarted by the need to get a job...any job to
pay the bills. However, to make realistic plans , and being able to
tick some off, is great at focusing you. And ticking something off
motivates you to achieve further.
The way to achieve at least some
goals is to know where you are going and where you want to be , i.e.,
your goal may well be to get a job, but there is preparation to be
done on the way, such as preparing your CV and finding out how
effective it is likely to be. A good way to do this is to take
advantage of the wealth of CV and Resume resources on the web,
including free templates and free CV reviews .
Learn how to be comfortable and
confident with the resources you have available to you right now,
while you gain others. By this I mean, you may want a job for which
you do not have the qualifications or experience...yet. You can get
this , but meanwhile you have to pay the bills. Being able to put up
with where you are now in life is especially important if you are on
welfare benefits and have to meet the rules of e.g. The Department
of Work And Pensions and The Work programme in the UK, because if
you do not apply for enough jobs, any job...or take a job that they
tell you to, then you get no money.
Most of all...get started....
