7 Ways To Spend Your Time Wisely While Unemployed
July 21st, 2010 | 
Author: One of the most dreadful thing about unemployment is the large span of free time we have on our hand. Many simply sleep away so that they do not have to think of ways to spend away those miserable empty hours.
I remembered sleeping till around 9 or even 10am initially when I was unemployed as I did not want to face the reality of living yet another aimless day.BOREDOM also haunted me for a long period while I was jobless.
Lets face it – having too much time is not a good thing if we do not know what to do with it. When we are working, we wish that we have more time to do our perosnal stuff and some even take medical leave so that they can rest or take a day off from work.
The internet remained my daily solace and time waster for many months and I think this is the case for many who are unemployed out there. This not only inflates our internet/electrical billing but also isolates us from the rest of the world.
I became very isolated for a few months even from my family until I decided to change my daily schedule and strategy:-
1. Start to pack your house
I began to tidy up my house and literally put it into order as I took out old mail and started to remove those old clothes as well. I realised that we have accummulated alot of rubbish in our wardrobe and cupboards.
I managed to sell some second-hand stuff to Cash Convertors and raised a few hundred dollars in the process!
Soon, I took to doing house work like vacuuming and laundry more to kill those free time than anything else. However, the routine became a habit now and I cleaned the tiolets weekly and regualrly wash the dishes after dinner.
A reader in transition told me that he took a month to do up his house after been laid off. He knocked nails on to loosened door planks and tidy up his garden. He found the experience very theraupetic as he was doing something useful with his free time.
So, take some time to repack your house if you feel bored.
Re-paint your home if the house looks jaded. Who knows, with a fresh coat of paint, you and your house will look fresher!
Time spent: as often as you need
Result: Satisfying
2. Going for lunch with my mum
I decided to lunch with my mum weekly as she came over every weekend to stay with my family. It was at first difficult to schedule lunch with my mum as I did not do that for many decades! We did not talk much initially during lunch but the experience was delightful as the time spent together cemented our relationship immensely. I wonder how many here have ever bring their mother out for meals regularly besides the annual Mother’s Day event?
I performed this weekly routine for many years till she had stroke two years ago. I missed those weekly lunch sessions with my mum still but at least I have done it for the past five years. No regrets there…
Time spent: once a week for many years
Result: very satisfying
3. Learn something new
I have managed to learn alot of stuff from the internet. It is a huge rich resource for new information. For example, after a friend helped me to set up the support website for the jobless, I learned much more from meddling around on my own. There is so much more to learn when you decide to mess around on your own through trial and error.
I now have three support websites though the one supporting the jobless has taken off better than the other two – www.dontcyberbully.com (support site for the cyberbullied) and www.steadymarriages.com (support site for the divorced)
Many have also learn how to earn money from selling stuff on ebay and using paypal as a payment engine. A friend I knew make thousands of dollars on the internet selling antique wrist watches online. He would bid for the watches and resell them online for a small profit. The best part of it all is that he is still a young varsity student!
So, go on a free learning experience on the internet. Use it to learn something new every month. Learn to set up your own blogsite using blogspot.com or wordpress. Who knows, you can even earn some money from google ads if your site becomes very popular!
Time spent: daily
Result: Satisfying
4. Volunteering
I have long being an advocate of volunteerism. It is not only theraupetic but also take those negative thoughts out of our mind.
The volunteer gets to see that there are many others who are worse off than us. I used to work in the Society for The Physically Disabled (SPD) and every week volunteers would join us to help in our disability programmes.
Many are regulars and some even took leave to spend some time with the centre. When asked why do they volunteer rain or shine, their reply is always the same: “I find that after volunteering, my soul is blessed and I left the place a happier person.”
I have also volunteered for a welfare organisation here in Sydney and recently cleared their work trial. I will be starting work as a casual worker with the organisation.
Besides having employment opportunities when you volunteer, more importantly, you will feel that you have utilise those free time wisely.
Volunteering is also one sure way of boosting your bruised self esteem as you spend time helping out those who are less fortunate.
Time spent: once a fortnight
Result: very satisfying
5. Keep a journal
With so much free time available, it is good for someone in transition to keep a journal.
I used to write alot when I was unemployed - often to vet out my frustrations. I found that writing is very theraupetic for me. I found that my burden is somewhat lifted when I write. It is akin to talking about my problems to a counsellor.
Some of my writings eventually got printed on the newspapers and I have since contributed regularly to our papers since 2001. As many as one hundred letters were published since then.
In fact, most of the writings I did on my journal have appeared in my recent book “How to survive unemployment”.
So do take up a journal and pen your innermost thoughts on it. You never know that a publisher may be keen to explore it as a book project!
Time spent: daily
Result: very satisfying
6. Take up a new hobby
Many others in transition I knew have taken up a new hobby. They could not take it up when they are busy working and there is also simply not enough time left after work to do so. Now, with much time on hand, many have explore territories that they have not do so before and with good effect.
A friend of mine took up fishing after been laid off and would go for his new hobby thrice a week. He told me that it was the best time of his life as he had a good severance package and could slow down his lifestyle.
Personally, I took up running more to destress when I was unemployed and have since ran in several marathons.
I continued my thrice-weekly running bouts till today. It is not only good for my health but also an effective destressor.
So, take up something that you have yearn for all along. When you return to work, you may not have any time or energy left to pursue that dream hobby of yours.
Time spent: thrice a week
Result: very satisfying
7. Take time out to think and reflect
Many Singaporeans have little time to think and reflect when we are gainfully employed. After graduating, we rushed off to work and later get married, have kids and soon we grow old.
When we retire, many regret the many things we like to do but have put off due to our busyness. Life simply rushes us by.
In fact, for some, being lay off may be the best thing that could happen to you.
Now, you have the time to think and reflect on your life’s priorities and goals.
Are you just going to be a person best known for being an excellent worker? Will there be any regrets when you retire?
How will your children best remember you for – an absent father who only knows how to buy gifts while toiling away in the office or someone who spends time with his kids?
What is the kind of legacy that you want your friends to remember you for?
A church friend I knew just passed away this week in Sydney from cancer. He is only 45 years old. However, he left behind a legacy of cheerfulness and joy that I will always remember him for.
Whenever we visited him either at his home or the hospital, he never lamented or complained once about his chronic condition. He always smiled and laughed even when he spoke about his illness as the world collapsed around him.
We were amazed at his optimism even as the cancerous cells ravaged his limp body.
For me, he taught me a lesson about not whining but fighting on despite the adverse circumstances.
Time spent: as often as possible
Result: long lasting legacy
Conclusion
I hope that I have leave you with enough tips to spend those awful large amount of time you have while you look for work.
Always remember that time once passed can never be returned. Use it wisely in whatever situation you are in right now.

Hi Glbert,
Together with all my colleagues in a business division, we were all retrenched for a business restructuring. We made about US$10 million profit for our company a year but in the USA corporate environment, it does not really matter. That was in 1999 and I have been unemployed since though I have a post graduate qualification and extensive Asia Pacific business experience from China, India, Korea down to Australia!
I decided that I will spend my time nurturing my 3 kids whom I seldom have time with when I was employed. Sure we have to cut down a fair amount of luxury like not blinking an eye to spend $10,000 per item but life is still comfortable.
Today, my two older kids have been admitted to the university on scholarship, doing double degree and the younger one is in top IP school in Singapore.
If it is up to me, I would have love to carry on for another 5 years but then we can not change our destiny. I did waste about 2 years in the initial period doing a job I hated which I quit despite a half million package.
I am overall satisfied doing many of the things that you have outlined in your article.

That’s right Singaporean who are well educated should try trading for a change instead of working for people all the time. For me I don’t even complete my secondary education
yet still can manage it. Those with better education I am sure can do better.
This is what I did for the last 10 years after being replaced by foreigners.
Having the thought that I can live anywhere in the world as long as there is internet connection I can make money. This is AWESOME.

Agree with you.
Many successful entrepreuners and many who have successful careers does all the 7 thing the authors suggested while being entrepreuners or gainfully employed. Why did the author do these 7 things only when he got the sack?
While all the time he was employed, if he ever was, and for how long he did not mention, he did not pack his house, have lunch with his mum, learn anything new, did any volunteering, have a hobby, and took time time out to think and reflect? Anyway keeping a journal was a stupid idea. So he is forgiven for not doing that.

Gilbert must have got a list longer than this to stay unemployed for so long. Hahaha
Here’s the list, it’s a good start toward stagnation, procrastination, irresponsibility, and all-out failure, which Gilbert seems to excel at.
I’m too old (or, too young) to find work.
I don’t have enough money.
I don’t speak enough English/Spanish/Russian/Navajo for them to hire me.
I fail at everything I try. Why bother?
I don’t have a car/a phone/a fax/a pager/a computer/an alarm clock.
I’m too shy.
I don’t know where to start.
I don’t have a degree (or, the proper education).
It’s impossible. I’ve tried before.
No one would want me (or, my skills).
It’s too late in the day (or, the season, or the year, or in my life) to find a job now.
It would take too much effort.
I don’t have the time.
I’m engaged to be married; once I’m married my problems will all be solved.
I’m not strong enough.
It might ruin my health.
I can’t take rejection.
I’m registered with a temp service (or, employment agency, or union, or major employer) and they haven’t called me yet.
I’ve applied already, and they turned me down.
There’s too much competition for jobs.
I don’t know how to look for work.
There’s no point in starting a job search.
I’d lose my shirt. I’d lose my kids medicaid, and what happens if they get sick and need to see a doctor.
I don’t have any work clothes (or, I don’t have any good clothes, or steel-toed shoes, or dress shoes, or a hard hat, or necktie).
I don’t have any family here (or, where the jobs are located).
The economy is terrible here (or, the housing situation is terrible here, or where the jobs are located).
I already sold all my tools.
I’m pregnant (or, trying to get pregnant).
It would spoil my vacation.
The timing isn’t right.
I’m waiting until the kids get out of school (or, back in school, or until they graduate from school).
I can’t sell.
They don’t offer enough benefits.
I need more of a challenge (or, it’s too much of a challenge).
I’m not a morning person.
I worked and paid taxes for two (or, five or ten) years, and it’s high time for me to relax and get the benefit of what I’ve paid in.
This is the wrong time of my life.
It would mean starting over.
I might fail.
I don’t have the energy.
I don’t drive on the freeway/at night/in that neighborhood/ in ice and snow on narrow roads/out of my part of town.
I don’t have any auto insurance.
I’m not into the eight-to-five scene.
I’m barely making it now, and I can’t afford to waste time and gasoline searching for a job all over town.
I’m too fat (or, thin).
I’m a rock musician (or, poet, or writer, or painter). I haven’t got any gigs yet, but I have to be free when they call.
A new necktie (or, magazine subscription, or briefcase, or mailings) would cost too much.
I’m not feeling well.
I’m planning to go back to school some time in the future, so I can’t work.
I don’t want to think about my problems right now.
The weather is too hot (or, too cold).
It doesn’t pay to work in this town.
There’s nothing within walking distance of my house.
It won’t work.
Anybody could do that job; I want something challenging.
It’s too much of a challenge.
I don’t want them to make me cut my hair, or tie it up.
My husband wouldn’t let me. My wife wouldn’t let me.
Public transportation doesn’t run that early/that late/that far/that reliably.
I can’t find any free day care.
I can’t stand the smell of plastic (or, bus exhaust, or flowers, or machine oil, or food, or people).
This town’s too small (or, too big) to find a job.
There’s no jobs out there. (sic)
If I word around food, I’ll start eating, and there will be no stopping me.
The boss will start talking some trash, and I’ll lose my temper and get fired again, so why bother?
I just arrived in town, and you want me to start looking for a job already?
I just got married/got divorced/broke up with my lover.
They’re not hiring.
I’m a woman (or, I’m a man, I’m an Anglo, I’m a minority . . . etc.)
It’s raining (or, sleeting, snowing, blowing) outside.
I can’t stand (or, sit, or walk, or lay down) for long periods of time. And I don’t like talking on the phone, using computers, or meeting people or cats . . . , etc., etc., etc.
I’m not in the mood.
I had surgery last year.
I have a headache/backache/neckache.
The tires on my car are bald.
I’m not strong enough.
I’m not gonna drive sixteen miles, morning and evening, through freeway traffic, for a lousy $15.15/hour (or, $16.50/hour, or $32.50/hour, or $50,000/year).
I’m worth more than they could afford to pay me.
It’s been tried before.
They say I’m overqualified.
I’ve got 12 weeks of unemployment benefits left, and if I don’t use them I lose them.
It would be too hard to start.
I’m not about to lower myself to take the kinds of jobs they’re offering.
I couldn’t do it alone.
They always want a drug test, and I’m not going to give them the satisfaction.
All they have are dead-end jobs, with no hope for quick advancement to upper management.
My kids are never going to get dumped into day care if I have anything to say about it.
I’ve got a “thing” about traveling on public buses.
If I work, my ex will garnish my wages for child support, and I’ll just have to quit and start over again.
I don’t work at any job that isn’t fun. When it stops being fun, I leave.
I don’t use public restrooms.
It would take too long.
I don’t look for work outside my field.
I’m not a risk taker. It’s too risky.
It can’t be done.
It’s summer vacation! (or, the Holidays, or Spring Break, or the championship playoff season.)
It’s too damn far.
If they don’t like the way I dress, screw ‘em.
It’s not practical. I’ve got to be realistic.
I don’t want to drive two hours for a one-hour meeting.
Nothing would come of it.

Your employer found out that they were paying you too much. And the fact that you did not land on another job that paid you that much, there is a reason. Ponder over that. And also count your lucky stars you were able to get that kind of pay for so long while it lasted.You don’t get such a lucky break twice. And no employers desrves to be fleeced twice too.

i agree with the author.
I have been posting on internet forums and blogs since the last 2 elections.
It is therapeutic. Singapore does not have a strong opposition to represent the 33.3%. The opposition has not been able to make progress for the last 50 years. Many singaporeans like me keep getting disappointed by the election results. People like me feel trapped. Dunno what to do. Do we wait for singaporeans to finally decide to give opposition a chance when they have chosen not to all these decades? So, i post and post to make myself feel better.
Else, i think i may have gone insane.
Other than posting comments, there is really not much we can do.
majority singaporeans will not support opposition for whatever reason.
I like to thank the inventor of blogs, the internet and forums. Life would be more hell without you.

” Your gambling luck will fail you one day.”
Thank you for your advice.
It already fail me more than once before but each time I came out stronger
I had attended many courses through the years and finally able to come out with my own set of trading system. It’s not perfect, who cares nothing is perfect anyway. But with proper money management losses are kept to the minimum and profit will take care of itself.
Don’t gamble trade. If it base on luck alone I would have throw in the towel long ago.

Attending course means cost. The WDA wants us to pay S$1700 for a “heavily subsidised” WSQ Cert course. I saw the course organiser ordering buffet every lesson. What a joke. So actually the course can be cheaper and free for unemployed. But because of the buffet every evening, we have to fork out S$1700 to subsidise the staff for their buffet dinner. No go!

This is an over used (abused?) line in internet markeeting scams. Sad to learn that this is now happening here. Many have been cheated of their hard earned money by internet marketing cheats who promised easy profit. They sell customised websites for a few thousand bucks to the old and IT illiterate. These are a group of well groomed and articulate angmos who do their con job in posh hotels, and they even throw in a lavish meal. What the IT illiterate do not know is the fancy looking site they bought will do just that, looking fancy and no more. As no one will ever notice your site amongst the billions of site in the web. And rather than you sell anything, it more like you have been sold! They sell you hope like what Gibert does, using an example of a young kid who sells package dog poo in the internet and make tons of money out of it. Desperate people will believe anything and add greed, you got a lethal combination that is oft exploited.

7 lessons I learned from my jobless experience
7 Ways To Spend Your Time Wisely While Unemployed
Remember the 7 dealy sins
wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony.
I see you promoting greed to your readers, you sounds like a sloth unemployed for so long ,your pride is all over the article, many of your other articles shows your wrath and discontent of your country, envy in other articles.

Mr Goh is in a state of glorified unemployment and yet proclaimed himself a consultant by having a website to aid the unemployed.
It is roughly in line with the joke that if you cannot do, you teach.
He should move one notch up into prostitution. The top 10 reasons why prostitution is better than consulting are
You get to choose your clients
Hotel and other expenses are directly billed
You actually receive that high hourly rate clients are paying for you
No dress code
Close client interaction at all times
You are working nights anyway
Finally a way to fit exercise into a tight schedule
Continual feedback – every two hours or so
Not tied down working with a team (unless you want to be)
Either way you are screwing clients
But I think no ne want to pay to screw his aasshole, so maybe he can be a pimp !!!

Good job. You have brought out the real Gilbert Goh. What a change in writing tone when he gets negative feedback.

daffy, is there a need to tell you who i am or what i am.
i may insult you all as i know very sure, you all are “FAKES”
Calling yourself singaporeans means nothing, just because you serve ns ? you are all “DAFT” as old man said.
as you may read, i avoid singaporeans and locals whenever i travel, as they are shameless just like the old man, critics of everything but themselves,laugh at everything and everyone but not themselves.
Foolish people with foolish thoughts, arrogant all the way, but stupid until cannot say.
I voted for the oppo whenever they are in town since 1986. Last in havelock rd blk 40 under the stage where they use for funerals and funtions, daffy daft. Serial numbers frighten you, why you got mercs, bungalows, million $ businesss, so dumb.
Have you voted yet ?? Good for what, letting in all foreigners and FT’s and still think you’re clever, so clever……
If you think you are smart, you better look under your pillow and make sure there is no “tua lua chwe poh” so you dream correct 4D to bet.

Hey eaglefly, take it easy, we are on same boat. Your last sentence is funny to the bone, does it mean the period thing ? I’ll like to try as its difficult to strike 4 d. hahaha
Yes, serial numbers do frighten some, ignorant as they come. Don’t blame them, poor education like me.
Geylang lorong 7 may need you to verify yourself, please let your spewing white juice fly on them to taste and to authenticate…hahaha

Singaporeans as you know are like dogs being trained by masters. We have been beatened so many times that we forget how we hate our master and just learn to love the whip.

You seem to have so much resentment for Singaporeans.
Whoever your are, you have a right to choose to live where you want, and so does those Singaporeans who chose to stay. Why abuse them just because their preference differs from yours?

It’s got triple the amout of mercury cat food has. Cat food is regulated, so the amount in a tin of tuna is far too much to be healthy for them every day. Give it as an occasional treat, no more.

Simply too dangerous! if you use your stove on a regular basis and not knowing exactly what kind of clearance inches available between the two appliances. Today’s small microwave construction material cannot sustain much heat and you need to make sure there is room around and good ventilation.
