A former physician just out of prison told me he couldn't find work—but after some digging, I learned he'd turned down jobs he felt were beneath him. One opportunity involved cold walking, selling solar panels door to door. I get it—cold walking is tough. But sitting at home complaining is worse.
When I got out, I took a job as a receptionist at Sotheby's. It wasn't glamorous, but it was a start.
Reality check: No one owes you your old life back. Work is work. Get moving.
