How to Stay Energized in Your Job Search
Several people have written me recently asking the same question: How do I stay energized and keep my confidence up while I'm looking for work? I know it can be hard, but try to focus on the idea that a period out of work is an opportunity - a time to home in on what's important, both personally and in your career journey. To help you (or someone you know) with that, I've put together some relationship-centric tips to help job hunters stay proactive.

Getting Prospects to Call You
Having a strategy to acquire new customers is vital because customers are lost over time for a variety of reasons. Additionally, if you are serious about sales growth then you’ll want to ensure that your salespeople become competent ‘Hunters’ of new business as well as ‘Farmers’ with their existing accounts.

Cycle City declares bankruptcy
A lot of bargain hunters were picking up deals. I noticed one of the owners behind the parts counter dispensing friendly advice to a customer.

Have you become a commodity?
A society that accepts "head hunters", "down-sizing" and encourages people to sell themselves to the highest bidder in the market reduces its citizens to commodities. This has its ramifications in work/life balance or general life harmony.

Living with Integrity
”What I do is who I am” Chris Schenkel. Several years ago I heard about an ad placed in a sports magazine advising hunters how not to scatter their shots. The ad said, “For one dollar we’ll give you that information.” Many people sent their dollar and the advice was, “Just use one shot.” While the ad was deceptive, and I’m certain many of the respondents were irritated at being taken in, the advice was good.

Find the 87% of Jobs Never Advertised!
The major difference between successful and unsuccessful job-hunters is not skill, education, age, or ability, but the way they go about their job-hunt.

LEADERSHIP MEANS REALISING TRUE POTENTIALS
Realizing true potentials by continuous efforts put us to a level in the life. You only find oil if you drill wells. You may think you're finding it when you're drawing maps and studying logs, but you have to drill." (Source: The Hunters, by John Masters, Canadian O & G wildcatter.) There is more to us than we know. If we can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of our lives we will be unwilling to settle for less. --Kurt Hahn. Everybody should try anything to know everything inside. We should always try to know ourselves.. We do not know our true potentials. We never try consciously or unconsciously to dwell it from within.
