You left out one end of the scale: how to prepare for becoming homeless. I know some about this, because it happened to me last June. I saw it coming and did take some action in advance to prepare. This is invaluable, once the worst does happen, too.

Hardly anyone really knows, or even hears, about how and when to take advantage of the quickly dwindling time and resources enough to get ready. And, believe me, it’s a predicament that seriously needs any and all advantages possible. Some can mean the difference between life and death.

I’m never unemployed. Life always has a way of employing me at
something or other. Survival isn’t a problem either. I can’t die either. The only problem I might have is To be happy or not.
However, the good thing about it all is I have a choice because i’m
the creator.

Hi Monica,

Yeah, several of these suggestion are outside the box, and so they may not be a popular choice. But even considering them expands the thinking process.

If we want to accomplish something that is proving difficult, then we need to push the boundaries out enough to accommodate new thought and action. May as well add something new to the mix if the usual isn’t working.

Thanks Monica

This is a great article!

The suggestions are practical, but also out of the box! The big actions, like going to the newspaper or radio, could result in so much more than just a “job”.

Taking massive action, but without limitations can be challenging. So often we only seek what we think we are deserving of. Not only would these suggestions provide practical results, I think they would break many personal barriers that we have that keep us from claiming the life we desire.

It was a pleasure to read such a thoughtful article!
