For those who have never worked or have been away from work for an extended period may lack or have lost their positive self-image and self-confidence. At times, you may even feel like a failure. Alyse King felt like this many times during her twenty-two year journey helping her son and daughter to manage their traumatic life experiences and personal disappointments. The thought of making new friends, going to school, starting a job-training program and hunting for a job, may even be overwhelming. Learning how to handle these every day stresses and rebuild your life is crucial to experiencing success with whatever you choose to do with your life. Since success is not a destination but a continuous journey, it is necessary to rebuild yourself, continue developing and learning as you travel through life. You are also to always be aware of the opportunities available to you, recognize these opportunities, and never allow any of those opportunities to slip away. It is also necessary to identify emerging opportunities. Your achievements at work, in school, with friends and with family are mostly determined by the way you feel and think about yourself. It depends on your self-image. It is difficult to be interested in enjoying life if you do not know what experiences and opportunities are available. Self-image emanates from within each person. Self-image is a reflection of what each person thinks about herself or himself. It begins with self-analysis, self-knowledge and self-enrichment. It is necessary to learn how to modify thinking and behavior. If thoughts are positively modified, behavior and self-image will automatically shine and be visible to everyone. This process is not just a one-time experience. It is a continuous process that will eventually become a routine. Learn to develop a healthy and strong self-worth and to regard YOU as a unique person, with abilities and qualities that are valuable, will ease your search for success and happiness. As someone who have never worked or suffered chronic illnesses such as schizophrenia, bi-polar or been traumatized by life experiences for one reason or another begin your recovery process, you are undoubtedly thinking about your self-worth, your confidence, dreams and goals. You may be thinking about your educational goals, your job skills or perhaps even getting a job, or engaging in volunteer work. You may be worrying about not having the right set of skills, or not having any skills at all. DO NOT WORRY This Workbook contains information and access to training tools as well as expert consultation services that will help. Practice every day the skills you acquire from this Workbook. Talk about them, tell your friends and relatives what you are learning, tell them how it is helping you to develop personal skills. We wish you success as you embark upon your self-development journey
