Take Ownership
Take ownership. Only you can make sure that you will find a satisfying job for yourself. Taking responsibility for your search puts you in the driver's seat.
Believe in Yourself
Believe in yourself. If you don't believe in yourself, why should anyone else? "Never, never, never, never give up.
Positive Attitude/Optimism
How many times have you caught yourself saying:
I wont get that job. Why bother applying? I really dont feel like looking for a job.
Get Organized
Take a few minutes at the beginning of each day to write a to-do list and rank your priorities. While this may seem basic, it will focus your attention on what you need to do to accomplish your long-term objective: landing a new job.
Set Up a Routine
Try to arrange activities for periods when you'll get the most out of them.
For example, when working online, try to avoid the busiest time for Internet service providers (generally after dinner or after work). This will increase the speed and efficiency of your efforts. Also plan your most challenging tasks for mornings, when your energy level is highest and your mind is fresh.
Avoid Procrastinating
Putting off projects that can be difficult or potentially embarrassing often becomes a pattern. Steps like sticking to a schedule and building in a reward system for yourself will help you stay on track.
Listen. Soak it all in. Ask for advice from your friends and colleagues, and your network to expand your own personal self-knowledge. Be open to what you hear.
Time Management
Manage your time and plan. These are critical skills that most job seekers forget. Your strategizing and organizing comes about evenings and weekends. The implementation comes during the course of the work day. Many applicants do tasks that they would be better served doing during other periods of time. Networking, cold calls, interviews are all vital things to do during the 9 5 schedule.
Staying Focused
Know what your objective is. Always know where you are and where you are going. An old saying goes like this: "If you dont know where you are going, you will end up somewhere else.
Follow-Through/Persistence
Over the years, I have seen applicants put very little attention to follow through.
For instance, the networking process, keeping connected with others in good times and in bad.
Reflection
They say the definition of insanity is doing the same behavior over and over again, and expecting to get a different result. It is important to reflect on what is working and what is not. Look at what signs, or signals, or what lifes coincidences have brought you. If you must, slightly re-shift your focus.
