Lemons to Lemonade

Today, right this very moment someone is losing their job and probably because of no fault of their own. A bad economy, a difficult boss, jealous co-workers whatever you find yourself unemployed. Being unemployed can be depressing, stressful and sometimes down right unfair. It may seem that all hope is lost however there is something you can do to make lemonade from the lemons that you are holding.
Education can be the answer, use this time while seeking employment to continue your education. I am a firm believer in the college online programs for Associates, Bachelors, Masters, and PhD. These online programs are advertised all over the Internet and on television and should be considered as an option to pass through the between jobs dilemma. Continuing your education online opposed to on campus provides the student flexibility, convenience, and yes a higher degree that can improve the chances of acquiring the position of your dreams.
As an unemployed person it is very easy to qualify for the basic federal grants and loans. The cost of many online programs is affordable compared to traditional college education.
I am a online student at the University of Phoenix/Axia College and I have found it to very interesting, satisfying and challenging. I would recommend it to people between jobs, homemakers, career minded people, retired people, people on he go, and anyone in between.
Education is something that no one can take from you once you have it so take those lemons you have been handed and make some lemonade go for it and don't look back you can do it I am.
