People generally have the tendency to blame someone or the other when things go wrong. If something goes wrong in your career, you will probably blame your present or former boss. Sometimes colleagues, family members and others also come in the list. Stop the blame game. Take some time and analyze. Maybe you are the one who is responsible for all this.
The job market is of course tough and highly competitive. It may be that you made a wrong decision. But as they say “Failure is the stepping stone to success”. So gear up, nothing’s lost. You can start your career development afresh.
Here are some of the steps that you can follow to stop being mad at the world and blaming others. Utilize your energies into positive direction for career development:
