Read H.B.Gelatt has a theory on "Positive Uncertainty". View Gelatt articles .

Read about John Krumboltz and how he developed his "happenstance" and career decision-making theory. Listen to Career Expert Audios featuring Richard Bolles, "What Color Is Your Parachute Now and in the Future?", John Krumboltz, "Making the Most of Happenstance in Your Career, " and many more...

Schlossberg’s Transition Theory

A transition is an event or non-event that results in change.
A transition is characterized by a change in roles, relationships and/or routines.
An event is something that happens, such as getting married, having a child, getting a job
A non-event is something that you expected and wanted to happen, but it did not like not getting a promotion.

Three things determine the severity of a transition:
Situation Itself - timing, impact and amount of control
• On a 1-10 scale, how “bad” it it?
• What is its timing (worst or best possible time)?
• How long is there to absorb its impact?
• Is there anything positive about it?
• How much control can I exert over it?
• Is it temporary or long in duration?

2. Self -- coping skills, experience and outlook
• Do I see the glass as half empty or half full?
• Do I believe that I can exert control?
• “Have I had past successful experience with change?
• Do I know how to cope by using humor, relaxation, exercise, meditation etc.?
• What internal resources do I bring?
•
3. Supports - people, agencies, financial capability.
• Do I have friends and family who care? Who are willing to help me?
• Am I willing to ask for help or develop a network of supporters?
• Are there agencies that can help?
• Are there sufficient material resources?

Not satisfied with the usual ways of assessing ones strengths (interests, values, skills, personality traits), I added two more variables: (1) inner motivations (what drives you) and preferred learning styles (how you best make sense out of information).
