Being jobless can be both terrifying and awesome and it only depends on how you decide to take the phase. The thought of being unemployed will trigger some fun and excitement if you know what all you can do to make the most of your free time. No wonder, unemployment has been one of the biggest fears of an adult life. However, there are ways to turn this fear into a loud cheer! Want to know how? Here are some of the most exciting things to do to turn your ‘unemployment’ into ‘fun-employment’.
1. Travel: Your 9 to 5 job and the commute to office will never allow you to know what travel exactly is unless you step out and set off. If you don’t have a job, then travel is the best way to utilise your time. Choose a destination that you had always wanted to explore, pack your backpack and go on an exciting trip. Trust us, you will come back refreshed and rejuvenated. You can plan it solo, but what’s better than a gang of jobless jerks?

2. Reboot, Rediscover and Radiate: Who doesn’t know the importance of rebooting a system. We often reboot our laptops, mobiles and gadgets, but what about life? It needs a reboot too. Contemplate and create a different you as you have some time for yourself. Freshen up, meditate and rediscover yourself. This is also the best time to rearrange your life and maybe start your professional life all over again! Perhaps your life is giving you a second chance to work on the things that you are passionate about. This time, get a job which interests you and not the one that you have to force yourself into. Learn more, focus on holistic growth and the satisfaction it will bring will feel worth being jobless.

3. Burn the Bridges: A hectic job schedule comes at a cost and sometimes it is our relations. Devout this time on your loved ones, gang up with friends, plan dinners with family and spread some light and life in your close-knitted circle. A warm hug and a big laugh can cure anything in this world.

4. Hop on Hobbies: Yes, hobbies! Do you even remember your own hobbies? Or do you even have any ever since you immersed completely into the corporate life? Give more time to your hobbies and if you don’t have any, then it is time to develop some. How about photography? Or maybe painting or stargazing? Think about it.

5. Start Your Own Venture: There cannot be anything more exciting than starting your long dreamed venture. It wasn’t your fault that you lost your job, but it will be a blunder if you don’t create one for yourself. Start a nice cafe, start writing a book or you can even start a blog!
