Gratitude Expressing gratitude can help you feel more hopeful and less anxious. It can also give you more energy and help you sleep better. Try making a list of what you are grateful for every night. You'll likely find this list gets longer over time. Who has helped you with your job search? How can you express your gratitude? What else are you grateful for related to your job search? ©Spinelli&Co.,LLC

Happiness Booster #3 Forgiveness v.tr. 1. To excuse for a fault or an offense; pardon. 2. To renounce anger or resentment against. ©Spinelli&Co.,LLC

Forgiveness Job transitions can be challenging and job seekers may have some negative feelings. Anger, bitterness and resentment can hurt us emotionally and physically. Forgiveness can reduce anxiety and increase self-esteem. Do you need to forgive anyone connected with your job loss or search? Remember, forgiveness is about you, not the other person. Some people find it helpful to write a letter of forgiveness without sending it. ©Spinelli&Co.,LLC

Happiness Booster #4 Acts of Kindness ©Spinelli&Co.,LLC

Acts of Kindness When we treat someone with kindness we see them more positively. We also feel better about ourselves. How can you help a fellow job seeker? ©Spinelli&Co.,LLC

Smile Just smiling can increase your well being. A fake smile can help; a real smile is even better. Remember to smile when networking and on job interviews. Smiling while talking on the phone can add warmth to your voice. ©Spinelli&Co.,LLC
