Once you have dealt with the intial shock of redundancy, it can be an exciting time to reassess and re-evaluate what is important when considering your future options.
Think of it from the positive slant and remember that although you may be feeling overwhelmed it is your job position, not you that has been made redundant! That may seem like semantics, but it is an important distinction to make. People often report an initial feeling of worthlessness and a general feeling of not being wanted. It is not at all unusual or unnatural to feel this way, but your employer has in fact found it necessary to cut certain positions in order to make the company more cost effective.
Do not for one minute consider this as a slight on your ability to perform your job. In fact, such thoughts can be mentally and emotionally destructive and can hinder your chances of moving ahead, so do not allow them to control your actions. Nor should you waste time and energy feeling aggrieved at your former employer. Dont waste your time bound up in what has happened. Focus your energies now on what is right for you, your family and what the future has to hold. After all, your future is something you can influence, your past is not.
The point is, whilst your job/position may be redundant, you most certainly are NOT! There are many stories from people in all walks of life who have found that a career change has been the start of exciting new directions! Although you may be worried about the future and will probably be feeling a little down and depressed, now is not the time to let those emotions get the better of you. Remaining positive will be an important factor in your ability to take control of the situation and move forward.
Don't allow that 'little voice in your head' to give you a negative mindset.
