Do Not Be Vengeful
By: Harrison Barnes


EmploymentScape Chief Executive Officer, Harrison Barnes discusses the importance of controlling your anger and not allowing hurt and vengeance to get the better of you.

A lot of people, who believe that they have been wronged, tend to lash out at the world as a reaction to the hurt caused. They adopt a vengeful attitude towards the world at large. For instance, if a person has been fired by an employer, he or she would tend to take out the hurt and anger at the next employer. However misplaced, this is invariably true. What people are actually doing is trying to even the score. Harrison believes that carrying anger and vengeance with us can be extremely harmful to both our careers and lives.

According to Harrison, all thoughts we carry bring happiness, sadness, love, hatred etc. There is no such thing as a neutral thought. You need to learn to control your mind by steering your thoughts in a positive direction. The more you control your thoughts, the better you do in life. Pushing your mind in a negative direction based on vengeance and anger does no good.

While incidents like losing a job, being betrayed, etc are all horrible things, the worst thing you can do is to allow these to occupy your mind. What you need to focus on is allowing the pain and hurt to flow through you so you can move on in life.

Forbes Reports 151,352 Layoffs for January Itself; Employment Authority Proposes Alternative Job Search Approach

Pasadena, CA — According to a compilation by Forbes recently, there were 151,352 layoffs at America’s 500 largest public companies in the month of January. MORE


"There are always vacancies. Organizations are born, organizations expand, workers become restless, quit, change jobs, move, become ill long-term, or become handicapped, retire, or die. There are always jobs out there waiting to be filled. The fact that you can't find those jobs only means the vacancy hasn't been advertised, or you're not using the right method to find it. When the Internet or job-postings, or agencies, or ads, or resumes, don't work, there are other ways of turning up the job you want. So, if you're coming up 'empty,' you need to change the search method you've been using. ... To speed up your search for one of the jobs that are out there, go after many different organizations, instead of just one or two."
