6 Days On, 1 Day Off
It is Saturday and I was doing some early am work today. I thought I would make this post on the importance of taking a break from your job search work. The reason for this reminder is because it is vitally important to "get away" from your activities even for a short time each week. I believe in working yourself at least 6 out of 7 days per week. This is normally only a temporary requirement and will pay good dividends in the end; a new job/path. The "get away" I am referring to is not really getting totally away. This time away is from the active pursuit of the new job.
In all of us, there are two ways to view the activities we engage in. There is our conscious mind and our subconscious mind. Break away from the conscious one by not being involved in planning or conducting activities of a job search nature. These include rewriting resumes, letters, searching online, contacting people, practicing interviewing, etc. These are examples of activities you engage in to pursue the new job. Stop these.
What taking a day off does is allow your subconscious mind to have the freedom to process all the activities you have been engaged in most recently. As it processes these activities this part of most people's minds will begin to piece together thoughts and ideas that either support or contradict previous thoughts. This processing is vital to success. Anyone can have success based solely on activities but the great success comes from going in the right direction for you. Your subconscious mind will help design this path without you even knowing it. It will keep your activities in check with your previous intentions. In addition, this part of your mind is most effective in resolving problems.
Let your inactivity be the most important activity you do in a given week for your job search. Keep strong, today is a tough one.
It is only temporary!
Let's Get Started!
