I graduated February 2018. Got my first job in research May 2018, contract ended December 2018. Second job as a salesperson December 2018, resigned due to burnout and depression October 2019. Unemployed since then. Spent the rest of 2019 and most of 2020 being depressed and suicidal. Now running my own small clothing business, freelancing for a digital agency, and helping people learn English and use it i daily life. Whether or not I can have to lunch tomorrow still haunts me everyday, but at least I am free to live life they way I always wanted to. To be a useful human being. If I'm gonna die, I'm gonna have to die being useful.
Tabita dear or Lupita like i used to call you back in Addis, Ethiopia, look where u r now! i know u will go even higher! a very dynamic, respectful young lady with a big heart!! Mamina from AU
Great message Tabitha Sindani, thank you. Here are the 3 things to walk away with: 1. Value and Identity are within me 2. Opportunities are right where I am 3. Greater joy is found in the greater purpose to serve others.
Thank you so much Tabitha.... today I'm watching this clip and you encouraged me to go out and do what I like, opportunities are right where you are.....👏👏👏👏👏
"Embrace the unexpected" u dont know what u just did to me.a healing alcoholic now picking up my pieces of broken glass.i nolonger care that it was a glass in the beginning,i am going to use the pieces as decorations in my flower pots.i am moving on with what i can change now.
Congratulations! This post makes me feel that there is Hope!! I was trying to be supportive of a family member who is struggling right now. They pushed me away. 😢. Best wishes to you🎉!!
How does this not have more likes. This is a powerful talk in so many ways. Esther set an amazing example and raised a wonderfully eloquent, educated, wise woman. Thank you.
I read this comment hoping it is from 1 yr ago but it breaks my heart to see it's from 3weeks ago . Hunny one day you will tell your story and it will be a testimony for you all the best .
You will Amaka. You absolutely will! It is a season but seasons come to pass. Summer, winter, autumn, spring, God makes them all beautiful in His time/! Allow him to be your anchor and you will thrive in months and years to come,
You have inspired me Tabitha by sharing your experience with unemployment. It is necessary that unemployed graduates understand that their value and identity is intrinsic so that they do not define themselves based on their employment status . This is extremely important in maintaining mental health. Congratulations dear, continue with the good job of mentoring young people in society.
I don't know what to say... As I listen to this it's been 2 weeks since my beloved mom passed on... She struggled to sponsor me to the University with hopes that life would be better after I graduate but she ended up witnessing my 4 years of agonising & frustrating unemployment... She passed away I nursed her until she died am still unemployed.. But this talk has given me hope as I am going to look for opportunities right where I am.
Praying that Yah and all the heavens open up and direct you to where you heart meets the world’s need. You ARE loved. May you be busy and delighted all the days of your life.
So profound. A similar story to mine which I detail in my book "honouring the Vision" Never stop trying. Now in my story I detail how to unravel that inner voice that allows you to see yourself outside of what society sees. Because that is how you ultimately learn to start living out your vision/purpose.
1. Value and identity are intrinsic - my skills and knowledge, my personality. No one can take that away from me. 2. Opportunities are right where you are. Create them with what you have within your circumstances 3. Greater joy in service to others 4. Embrace the unexpected, in the end all things work for good.
I wish I could contribute to that video with subtitles in my native language, so my friends could hear your story told by you. We had graduated 6 months ago and we are still unemployed. All of us should hear your wise words. Thank you, Tabitha 🙏💙
The world is moving beyond graduating and looking for work. We must now look for problems to solve while in school, and begin solving them. By the time we graduate, we will have real world solutions to real world problems, delivering value that attracts compensation beyond what a job can give. Not everyone can receive this wisdom because more people prefer poverty. All the best to everyone currently unemployed. It’s your season to begin solving problems and getting paid for it.
I am so stunned that this was uploaded exactly a year ago. Currently unemployed and realized how life is not linear. This was an incredible TedTalk, thank you Tabitha!
@@Studently Okay lady Mrs. However, people 1. Don't wanna think outside the box 2. Are too picky about jobs 3. We should understand that begging on the street is also a job, but begging from friend is not.
Without revealing much info about your personal life, please can you tell me the job you desire, your training, and other extra skills? I was watching a video of a PhD holder who was jobless for 5 years until he started thinking outside the box. If I find the youtube video I will paste it here. However, based on what I saw in the video, I can still give some hints without the video. Wishing you all the best. You are great for listening to your sister Tabitha from a different continent, and for never giving up.
@@univuniveral9713 what is your comment’s purpose? Are you trying to empower someone into getting a job or are you demeaning someone because they made a comment on a TH-cam video? You have a God’s pic in your TH-cam page but you are completely being a rude person to a stranger? Check your intentions. It’s not clear.
I can only say thank you for you inspirational talk. i have been depressed for six months not getting a job. Then TH-cam recommends me your video. God bless always.
May God continue to bless you Esther. Great points to take away. The best part for me was when you mentioned that your strong faith in God was what kept you going knowing that if you are one of His everything will always work out for your own good. Hallelujah. Remain blessed
Thank you Tabitha, I'm a recent graduate from Nigeria. Went through a lot of constraints while schooling. Gladly I can say Every second I spent listening to you was worth it. Thank you for making be understand life better and now I will work and strive for the expected and learn to embrace the unexpected. Thank you Tabitha. You are an inspiration ❤️
I'm jobless right now ,for 2 years due to pandemic.And now same as your situation back into the village and do planting vegetables for our daily consumption just to survive..🙏🏻💓From: Cebu
So happy and blessed having had the opportunity to attend this talk live ! It was just mind blowing. Thank you again, Tabitha for having shared your experience with us ! I will never ever forget this moment !
Thanks Tabitha Sindani. Thanks for sharing your experience. Thanks for sharing your journey thus far. You can't tell the depth you touch in me. Can't wait to be in touch with you. Thanks again
Great inspiration for those teething with pain. Your speech lives forever. Raise the listener and down crumble ....with him or her. You cut through any culture. The message lives forever....
The relevance of this is on point during this pandemic wherein millions of people in the world are currently unemployed, and I am one of those millions. This motivates me to not give up and acknowledge the hurdle I am in right now. Thank you Tabitha, you are an inspiration! I hope and pray to meet you someday.
Glowing in beauty and flowing in language. Inspiring from all angles. Life has away of throwing us into the water without having learnt to swim. We then must just have an 'inservice training' to survive. Keep on. Life has to be lived even if the ducks are not in line.
Love this quote: "greater joy lies in the greater purpose of serving others." I have been teaching young students for some time now and I feel exactly like what she is saying.
Very inspiring talk. This video got me so much when the speaker was talking about her Mum. Had me crying on a public bus! I lost my own mother and she was my hero, who gave me the educational opportunities she never had. Always trying to work to make things better for those she encountered. She was the master of creating opportunities. I have had several seasons of unemployment, but I'm learning to put the lessons of my mother into practice. Miss you every day mama.
Great talk! I shed one too many tears🥲for this moving story. So grateful for the nuggets shared. Mine may not be unemployment but a broken identity. While in this crisis, I see the light in helping others get clear paths in their lives. Thanks, Tabitha Sindani, and all the best in your life's endeavours.
Lost my job due to COVID 19 pandemic, currently going through the unemployment phase. I could resonate with her on so many levels. Like her, I also wanted to study medicine, but couldn't because I couldn't achieve a good score to get myself admitted into a medical school. Instead, I had to choose business and worked hard to land a job. After getting my first full-time job and working there for more than a year, I got a call from my HR and heard that I lost my job. It gets really hard to stay sane when you are unemployed, applying to various places and getting rejected or getting no calls every time, and on top of that, this pandemic is not ending in anytime soon. I can see the frustration and sadness in my parents' eyes. The uncertainty of the future and the fear of it can be very daunting.
I love your speech Tabitha! That's what in my opinion we as believers in One God are meant to do. Smelling the roses along the way and invest our time and energy into building a life to benefit ourselves and others. May Allah bless your mother,your father,you and you whole family and your life. Thank you for sharing your experiences and lessons taught along the way. I am sure a lot of people are able to resonate with you on a lot of different levels.
what an inspiring story, we are not taught this is in school of which it should be added to curriculum. I must say Tabitha, at this moment am unemployed and your story has transformed my thinking. Thank you
She is so beautiful it took me 3/4 way through the talk before I could actually concentrate on what she was saying. She looks just like me when I was younger. I had no idea I was this gorgeous.
I wish I had had this talk when I was in and out of jobs 2019-2021 😅 but the upside was that I learned to build a productive routine with nowhere to go and really get started on personal projects that needed my full energy and attention, so I guess it was for the best in the end!
This is just brilliant so inspiring and timely in for me right now.I am not unemployed but sit in that space of ‘something else’ which she refers to at the end. Thank you for aging your story.
Tabitha u made me set tears, u correctly said it that ur's is unemployment & to someone might be something else.i really learned some thing great from this speech, God bless u my sister.
I am 25 this year, British born but full ethnic minority, suffering a plethora of long term problems including unemployment though no fault of my own, and I am receiving no support.
@17:12 + "...that is what motivated me to live for others, doing things for others...what you do for yourself does with you, what you do for others lives on forever". Back again. This is so good‼️
Thank you Tabitha, it is an incredible journey and I am glad that I clicked on the video on this critical day of my time. I strongly believe that your speech helps many people to think differently about life and to move forward. May God bless you again and again.
This is so powerful and in this time in my life I learned exactly what you spelled out. That value is intrinsic, our talents are needed and can be realized no matter where you are. You are exactly where you need to be
I love this talk with all my heart, Tabitha's story is so touching. And yet as a fresh graduate who's grappling with her mother's cancer AND unemployment, I feel stuck. And I can't embrace this. I also don't feel like "leadership" material, never had been as an introvert. I also feel a spiritual dissonance with my own community and the urge to flee from it all sometimes overwhelms me. I just see myself working for people- people whom I can feel at home with- and blend in the background. Ugh.
Hang in there. I don't know where people go off with becoming leadership material but everything starts somewhere, and some people need guidance - like mentors and life coaches - in order to get to that level (it's not an overnight thing, for goodness sake!). Start small, you are unemployed and claim yourself an introvert. That means that you cherish the people you share your vulnerable sides to. You can share your situation and your goals (despite how unreachable they seem to you) to the people you trust the details of your problems most. See if they know other people who you can contact in hopes of finding hired help of some way.
You may feel as you speak of now. But if you read the bible and remember the story of Gideon, you will know that there is more in you than you may realize. Look up
Saraf in the midst of our greatest challenge, things die so that new things can be born. To be sure, death is painful. Death of self as we sacrifice for others. Death of dreams. Death of loved ones. Nevertheless, at such time we must trust the process. There are certain laws and principles that are certain. If there is seedtime, harvest is on its way.

Thanks so much Tabitha. Your story has a big lesson. I wish everyone young woman could hear it.
Indeed!
Brilliant talk Tabby. Your destiny was indeed intrinsic
I love this talk with all my heart, Tabitha's story is so touching. And yet as a fresh graduate who's grappling with her mother's cancer AND unemployment, I feel stuck. And I can't embrace this. I also don't feel like "leadership" material, never had been as an introvert. I also feel a spiritual dissonance with my own community and the urge to flee from it all sometimes overwhelms me. I just see myself working for people- people whom I can feel at home with- and blend in the background. Ugh.
Hang in there. I don't know where people go off with becoming leadership material but everything starts somewhere, and some people need guidance - like mentors and life coaches - in order to get to that level (it's not an overnight thing, for goodness sake!). Start small, you are unemployed and claim yourself an introvert. That means that you cherish the people you share your vulnerable sides to. You can share your situation and your goals (despite how unreachable they seem to you) to the people you trust the details of your problems most. See if they know other people who you can contact in hopes of finding hired help of some way.
You may feel as you speak of now.
But if you read the bible and remember the story of Gideon, you will know that there is more in you than you may realize.
Look up
Hey! How are you now? I just saw your comment and I want to encourage you - let's keep keeping on.
Hold on, meditate on things that will build your confidence and pray. God answers prayer.
Saraf in the midst of our greatest challenge, things die so that new things can be born. To be sure, death is painful. Death of self as we sacrifice for others. Death of dreams. Death of loved ones. Nevertheless, at such time we must trust the process. There are certain laws and principles that are certain. If there is seedtime, harvest is on its way.
Amazing Amazing Tabitha! Just clapped with the audience. Value and Identity are intrinsic. You have inspired me.
