Your 4th point about December and January being strong hiring months is absolutely correct and should serve as renewed motivation when a job seeker begins to lose steam. My only caveat – you need to be self motivated to succeed. Sometimes an adverse situation can be turned to an advantage.

I'm starting to see posts that seem to suggest that motivation should be all stick, no carrot. By doing so you can motivate to produce even superb results.
