Use The Secret in Your Job Search - Stop the Panic

Ihatemyjob_2 Just today, I got an email from a new client who's very recently started a job search. He's fed up using the job search boards, like Monster.com and HotJobs, to find his job. Job search boards are fine...later in your job search, when you know what you're seeking...and as a part of your strategy, not the whole enchilada! It's been freaking him out, frankly, mostly because he's making a career change. He has a background in accounting and finance, but wants to be in an operations job. He feels that things are complicated because much of his work experience has been overseas, and he wants to stay local in his new Chicago-area home.

Of course, of course, if he starts his job search online, he'll lose his marbles. Mostly because, for any of us, it's all-too-easy to look at those job postings and say to yourself..."I don't have this qualification," and "I don't have that type of experience." The snowball of "don't haves" gets bigger and bigger, weighed down with reasons why jobs don't fit you, until you've been bowled over in an avalanche of negativity. And then you want to stop looking for a job, because you think you don't fit anywhere.

WHOA! That's not true! There is a job for you. Probably many jobs. It doesn't have to be so negative!
No, I'm not being Pollyanna. I got so frustrated, recently, with clients telling me that they had been looking at job postings and felt their self-esteem tumble, that I wanted to do something to turn things around. So I've created a brief video that integrates principles from "The Secret" and The Law of Attraction, to offer more positive way to approach the job search process, so that you calm down, get focused, and increase your chances of finding a job that fits for you. I invite you to watch it now...

Spend just 3 1/2 minutes and see what shifts for you. (If you have any trouble seeing this video like on an RSS feed, you'll find it on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ge8seIlw--o)

What do you think of this approach to envision your way to job search success? How does it work for you?

With calm and focus,
Susan
