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?

Beside the questions, "Do you make your bed every day?" and "Do you consider yourself a neat person?" he checked "Yes." Later his mother reviewed the questionnaire. Knowing those answers were far from the truth, she asked Sean why he'd lied. "What do you expect me to do," he retorted. "I don't want to get stuck living with some slob!"
