I Give You Permission

Stay tuned next week for the blog to have some meat in the posts. I plan on posting information that will assist you in locating job opportunities. I have scoured the internet in search of great resources for resumes, cover letters, company information, job fairs and more. I will begin to unload some of this information on you. There is so much on the internet, please feel free to email me if you have any info that would be of assistance. I will begin these posts on either Tuesday or Wednesday, so start sending what you have.

Today's word from the job search front line is "fresh." Take a break from your job searching today. I give you permission. EVERYONE needs a break from what they are doing. Healthy boundaries are another secret to conducting an effective job search. Healthy boundaries include leaving the computer, leaving the cell phone, even leaving the house/office and go in a different direction. It is important to change things up every once in a while to keep it all fresh and exciting. If you give yourself a short vacation from the job search, you never know what may come of it. There have been many times in my life that I look back and realized one thing. If I was working on a project for long stretches of time, it wasn't until I took the break and got back to work I figured out something I was missing.

Embrace life every once in a while otherwise it will embrace you and squeeze your guts out.

YUMMY expresso today. Hope yours is good too.

If anyone is looking to start a business, I highly recommend doing a business plan. I know that you may not want to put the work in but it is worth every second of your time. A couple of years ago I decided to develop one and wasn't sure where to go. I used one of the free templates from an organization called SCORE. SCORE is a non profit organization that is normally staffed by retired business people. They provide a wealth of knowledge, wisdom and experience. Check out their site and see if you can find a local chapter.

Click the link for SCORE Business Plans on the right hand column for more information.

Let's Get Started!
