The news has just reported that the private sector in the U.S. just shed about a quarter-million more jobs in August. Ugh! For those of us "in transition" to new a new job, this means rededicating ourselves to the Mantra of the Unemployed.

What is this mantra? It's three things. Exercise, Volunteer Work, and Devotion, which is to say, meditation and connection to a higher power.

Really, these daily habits are good to follow whether you have a job or not.

Blogging is good, too.
