Day fifteen of the job search and things are going swimmingly, if swimmingly meant drowning before my very eyes. TWO extremely positive looking projects are delayed and its official - I got five weeks until things get bad - really bad. But as my sister Dana says, dwelling negatively doesn't help anything.
The worst thing about a job search is how helpless you feel. You spend twenty minutes going over and re going over your resume only to never hear back. Its the sheer essence of failure, that little small voice in the back of your head telling you that you'll never do anything, gets a little louder. Its a constant crush of pressure - knowing that even when you apply to ANY job - things aren't looking up. I finally get what all those new stations have been saying, things are not getting better.
What do you do? Hold on - stay strong - get better. Its all I CAN do. Moping around won't help me. I still feel like a failure, I still feel that twinge of helplessness, but you gotta shake those off and keep working hard. otherwise, what else is gonna right for you?
Stay strong - the alternative isn't any better.
