 Perfect and job rarely go together in the same sentence.
◦ It seems like there could almost always be something not quite
right with a job, but what’s important is how you handle those
things that might not be perfectly the way you want them to be.
◦ So my question to you is… are you fossilized in your job?
◦ Are you so set in your ways that your mind isn’t open at all to
change?
 Dinosaurs and cockroaches existed at the same time in history,
 But the dinosaur is extinct because
◦ The dinosaur failing to adapt, fossilized and went away.
 The cockroach is still around.
◦ Because the cockroach is adaptable and flexible.
 Nothing is 100% the same on the job, so you’ve got to have some
flexibility.
 In fact one can count on one thing while
working —change.
◦ It is all about process improvement.
◦ What will make our company better?
◦ How can we better service our clients?
◦ How can we create better resumes to help
our clients get interviews faster?
◦ These are all important questions that we
ask ourselves daily.
◦ Companies who aren’t open to change
eventually fade away.
 My point is this (while I’m not going
to go as far as to suggest you
should be a cockroach… ew), I am
going to say: flexibility and
adaptability will take you a long way
in your career.
 So never become so ingrained in
doing everything the same way that
you eventually fossilize and fade
away.
