Gday Mick,
Lots of great posts and ideas here to help.
Having a feeling or worthlessness and not knowing what to do to break the cycle of failure is a terrible feeling and their is no quick and easy solution. Every day I feel this same pain as I keep trying to succeed in many aspects of my life but I never seem to ever reach any of my goals and I just keep drowning in my addictions.
The things I do to keep on track and keep myself moving forward, is to succeed in the things that I have control over and that I can be proud of. I want to be healthy and fit and feel good in my body so I can lead an active life. Being fit and healthy brings new opportunities into your life and makes you feel energised to be able to achieve the things you wouldn't be able to do if you were overweight and non active. Helping others is such a rewarding benefit and it opens you up to a world of benefits. You don't have to go and save the world or donate all your time or effort. It may be just helping some cross the street or sharing a joke with someone on the street. Yes it sounds so simple and easy but it does give you a state of euphoria and gives you a sense of worth to someone and yourself.
The other thing that helps me, is to clean up all the clutter in my life that is frustrating me and causing me to feel anxious and upset. It may just be cleaning up your house or organising all you bills. I know when I am drowning in debt and bills that I like to hide all my mail and pretend it doesn't exist. All this does is make my depression and anxiety worse, as I will have to face a bigger disaster at some stage.
Help others with their problems. Sharing with others is a beautiful thing as through sharing pain, we some times can find the answer to our problems or even better feel the pleasure of helping someone else move forward in theirs. Don't focus all your time on others but find answers to solve your own problems through helping others.
I know all these words might not get you a job tomorrow but I do hope it starts to give you some clarity on how to make a step forward towards a great job. I will send a wish out to the world for you that a job will come your way and I hope that you feel happiness and love every day onwards.
Zac
