What Seeds Are You Planting?
Well I am finally back from my trip to see Mom. She is doing ok given her situation. Life has a way of taking me for a ride sometimes. This one is no different.
This post is geared towards reminding you to be patient during your job search. I know this is a very difficult thing to master. Patience is a challenge for many of us because we have our own "time table". This is normal in my opinion but one that needs to be kept under control.
The first rule in any job search campaign is to plant good quality seeds everywhere you go. Whether you are at work or play or church or home, it is vital to be planting seeds that exemplify who you really are. The seeds I am referring to are not to manipulate a person or situation but to demonstrate the type of person you are.
Seeds are the little things you do and say that provide clues to your character. If you are frustrated people will know it. If you are desperate, people will sense it. If you are calm, they sense that too. Keep a check on what you are showing to people in the little things you say or do. This will invariably hurt or help your job search.
You have permission to discuss your feelings with close friends or relatives in order to get out your frustrations or fears. Just don't carry them on your shoulder or tongue. Keep tabs on the perceptions you are leaving people every time you see or meet them. Your job search will thank you.
Let's Get Started!
