What we title some factor issues.

It sets a tone that alters our point of view.

Give some factor a new title and the distinction may appear insignificant or even trivial.

Nevertheless, if it changes our point of view, it can amount to a very big alter.

Lately, I heard the phrase &ampquotsurvival career.&ampquot

I understood this to imply a career that is often element-time and unrelated to one’s main career concentrate. one requires such a career simply because one’s previous position has been eliminated, out-sourced, down-sized, off-shored, or or else zapped.

I heard this phrase a couple of occasions and thought, &ampquotWhy does the phrase ‘hunker-down’ arrive to ideas?&ampquot

The phrase suggests an picture of bunkers, flack jackets, helmets, and a sound track of voices shouting &ampquotincoming!&ampquot

That does not exactly give a warm, fuzzy feeling, does it?

Maybe we cannot alter the instant actuality of making ends meet as quickly as we may want, but we can alter our point of view by some imaginative and empowering nomenclature.

Suppose a &ampquotsurvival job&ampquot gets to be a &ampquotstepping stone career?&ampquot

What distinction would that make?

Nicely, the entire notion of heaving a sigh of relief at obtaining via an extra day with physique and soul in 1 piece changes.

Our concentrate is on where we are going and what we are studying in the procedure instead than braving an extra day in the wilderness.

Following all, if are in this short-phrase scenario anyway, why not make it a transition to some factor much better?

Why make it sound like a actuality Television display where the entire planet is on the verge of voting us off the island and into a shark-infested bay?

It may be a little alter, but it alters the internal landscape and engages the ideas in a potent way simply because it changes point of view.

And with a new point of view, we will do lots much more than just survive.
