Career Planning Advice: Avoid the 10 Success Killers!
Sticking to fundamental business principles is the basis for
successful career planning. To us this means that our customers
are able to lock up job high-paying offers in as little as 14
days or less.
Old-fashioned methods that require seemingly unending mailings
and postings of resumes just don't get it anymore. It can take
weeks or months to achieve mediocre results.
I recently had the good fortune to read an article about career
success by Larry Thompson, a Hollywood producer. It struck me as
a fabulous piece of career planning advice.
Thompson reports that, in his experience, there are 10 success
killers. As I read about them it occurred to me that they apply
to job search success, as well. That's because one of the key
insights into alternative and non-traditional strategies is that
employment success follows the same rules as business success.
Here are the success killers you should avoid:
1. Comparing yourself to someone else.
2. Not facing your fears.
3. Leaving a job undone.
4.
Feeling sorry for yourself.
5. Failing to speak assertively.
6. Dressing inappropriately.
7. Saying you hate computers.
8. Not taking advantage of advice from family, friends and
mentors.
9. Saying "I can't."
10. Having more regrets than dreams.
No one said finding a job is easy. However, most job hunters
suffer from lack of results. It's usually because they've taken
the wrong approach. They can't achieve fast and lucrative
results by using last century methods.
However, 21st Century strategies are exciting career planning
alternatives to the old fashioned ways. Reviewing (and avoiding
) the 10 success killers is a terrific place to start to insure
your job search success.
