Sixty third week-Trying not to give in to despair

Yup, it's been another one of those weeks. You often wonder how people survive when money isn't coming in. I'm about to find out. I knew this was coming, yet I decided to ignore it hoping and praying for a job. Now...of course I just have to grit my teeth, pray harder and hope someone will offer me a job in the next week or so. When you get in this type of situation, it really tests your mettle. I could give into despair right now. I know that's what so many want me to do. It's really hard not to, when it seems like you're kicking at a rock and the barriers around you seem insurmountable. Yet it's exactly the time when you need to look up and not down.

Yes, this is yet another pep talk. You have to believe in yourself enough to get out of the introverted shell you seem to be stuck in. Make a list of people you are going to call and/or visit in the next week. Follow through with what you say you're going to do. Don't be afraid to ask for money. You never know who may be willing to give you what you need. I know what my next steps will be. I don't like it, but I really have no choice now. I have to take the desperation job. I can't avoid it any longer.
