“Losing one’s job may seem like an unmitigated disaster but, for many of us, it is the gentle push we need to strive for greater achievement.”

The lesson? “Be self-motivated.”

Even though the author of today’s quote is anonymous, there is a great lesson about being self motivated here. There’s always a positive if you look for it.
