Also it is important to network with people in your field.They know more about what is happening in your field than is reported in the media. Media provide statistics. Statistics never got anybody a job or cuased people to lose a job. Talk to people who work in organizations that are less visible. There may opportnities there that are not reported on job boards. In fact more than 80% of jobs are not reported.

This is really appropriate. A big part of any recession, depression, etc., is an attitude of defeat and fear. Roosevelt's famous comment about fear being the thing we had to fear is correct - when attitudes get more positive, voilà, we will begin to pull out of this morass.

thank you!
Thanks for a well crafted positive spin! So many "advisors" are advising us to be defensive, but I like the idea of going on the offensive.
