Moving Onward and Upward in the Wake of Adversity

Category: Clippings

From “Moving Onward and Upward in the Wake of Adversity” by Pam North (Info Career Trends, July 2007):

Many of us enter librarianship with the belief that it will be a stable, relatively stress-free career with countless rewards in the form of appreciation (if not riches). What I have encountered is a personally rewarding, yet uncertain and challenging profession…

What I learned during this tumultuous time and in the ensuing months has been that, even when it feels like the plush rug of security and stability has been swept from beneath your feet, there are ways to make things work - to remember that, indeed, you made the right choice.

#1 - Don’t take it personally
#2 - Turn crisis into opportunity
#3 - Make the best out of the worst situation
#4 - Know that change is difficult but inevitable
#5 - Listen to wise voices
