“Once you choose hope, anything's possible.” ~Christopher Reeve
ESPERANZA
(Hope)
That is what a newborn baby girl was named on September 14th, 2010, in honor of her father, a trapped miner in Copiapo, Chile.
HOPE, what would anyone do without it? What would the miners have done? On day 1 or day 69…they were still hoping against all odds they would be set free from their underground cell. They never ever considered that they would be abandoned and as a job seeker, you need to know you are not abandoned either. There is help out there for your job search with various local networking groups, Internet resources and you can always email me with your questions!
“Hope never abandons you, you abandon it.” ~George Weinberg
Even so, many of you feel “trapped”, and can’t figure out how to sustain yourself during your time of joblessness. You are hoping someone will lower a rescue capsule and bring you up from the bowels of unemployment. It will happen, and like the miners, you will need to continue to be patient. However, once you find work, you too will celebrate to the cheers and hugs of your loved ones!
Certainly these trapped miners had to endure conditions that had all the cards stacked against them, yet, they remained hopeful. You too must have HOPE! Don’t accept that you will never be rescued from this unemployment predicament you are in.

Have the confidence to reach out to someone who can help you connect with a company representative, or offer job search skills advice. Meet with networking groups of others who are on a job search as well, and learn from their experiences. Use your talents and abilities to volunteer in the industry you are interested in and one of these volunteer opportunities might turn into a job offer in the near future.
For 17 long days, the world did not know if the miners were alive or not. On a small piece of paper which was attached to a drill bit came the words, “All 33 of us are alive and well”. From that point forward, the energy of the world found a way to give hope to these men that they would be rescued. Create your own “notification” to the world that you are still an active job seeker. Jumpstart your search again this week!
You need to create this energy of hope for yourself. Ask your loved ones, friends, and previous colleagues to offer up a word of hope each day for you. Believe in your soul you are worth hiring…because you are.
