I was one of those hardest hit by the 2008 financial crisis. Jobs were scarce in my field for a few years and the positions I was able to get paid less than half what I was accustomed to. Yikes. Scary times and I never expected the silver lining that followed. I managed to inadvertently cultivate a truck load of habits; maintain a daily ritual (coffee, check for important business updates, write out goals,  create plan of action), maintain fitness for physical/mental/emotional well being, be productive as though still employed, when job arrives do everything humanly possible to be indispensable. I finally landed my dream job and carried on with my daily rituals. Needless to say, I’ve enjoyed my highest earning years and more fulfillment than I thought possible. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
