Why did I get laid-off?

I was laid-off in October of 2015. As people learned of my layoff, they asked me why I was laid-off. I thought it was an odd question as I never asked myself that question. I always felt it happened to get me to my next stage of life. I continue to see many retailers shuttering their doors, downsizing their corporate staff and filing for bankruptcy. I am reaching out to all of those people to let them know, there is life after a layoff. I now have a career that is a dream! I had always said, I need more time for my family, I would love to go on vacation for more than one week at a time. Since my change all of these have happened. So to all of you that are going through a career change now is your time to find your dream!!!

A closed door creates an opportunity to move in a different direction. You have the right attitude sir, which is why your positive energy allowed you to direct your efforts toward your dreams. Awesome.
