Who needs a job when you can blog? Pt. 2 (Tips and Advice for the unemployed Whitechapleon)

It's easy to get down on life when you've been out of work for a while. Self esteem and motivation can take a beating, and one can quickly find that negative thoughts and lethargy create a vicious cycle that has the potential to send you spiraling in to a pit of despair and depression. 

So here are a few simple ideas to help with the inexorably expanding darkness that is eating away your insides: 

1. Get out of the house and see the world. 

Ben and I took a trip out of our beloved whitechapel and set off on our way to Borough Market 

2. Don't let minor set backs get you down. 

We were supposed to change at Moorgate but we missed our stop and ended up in Barbican 

3. Rejoice in all your triumphs, no matter how small

  

We made it to Moorgate.

4. Stare Death directly in the face. 

Face your fears and do something you are afraid to, the sense of accomplishment will boost motivation and banish your blues.

5. Get drunk in the day.

This is an oldie but a goodie. A classic staple of unemployed well-being well worth reiterating.

We went to INDO, obviously.
