Dan Pacholski shares 10 lessons he learned during his 13 month job search. He recommends taking time to adjust after losing a job, taking advantage of available resources like networking groups, developing a work schedule to approach job searching like a full-time job, giving yourself time off to recharge, and not expecting immediate results as job searching takes patience. He also suggests reminding yourself of past accomplishments, getting involved in new activities to fill time and boost morale, being flexible in search methods, and persisting through the temporary situation with confidence that success will come.

Karmic management
The document summarizes a book review of "Karmic Management: What Goes Around Comes Around in Your Business and Your Life". It outlines the key principles of karma and karmic management discussed in the book. The book proposes that one can positively impact business results and life by consciously focusing thoughts, words and actions on helping others succeed. It describes 8 karmic rules, including finding the underlying cause if something isn't working, identifying karmic business partners, and reinvesting positive outcomes into helping those partners succeed. The review finds the advice practical and not just for spiritual people, noting thriving business communities that discuss applying the principles.
Find your true passion and do what you love to do
There's no secret about success.
Great business requires heart and dedication. Successful people win because they love what they do. Actually, your noble passion is your mission.
Do What You Love (or your work life will totally suck)
We’ve all been there: working jobs that we don’t like for “good money”, while having the nagging suspicion that we could be doing something so much more satisfying and fulfilling. This is an opportunity to get past fears and instead be inspired and excited about doing what you *really* want to be doing for work in your life.
8 things I learned
Two weeks ago, midterms arrived and went at Grand Valley State University, and emotions are running high for seniors graduating in December who are about to enter the real world. Before graduating, it's important to reflect on one's time in college. This document outlines 8 things the author has learned from their time in college, internships, and life experiences. These include thinking before asking questions, saying no to overcommitting, seeing competition as motivation, getting involved in student organizations, starting portfolio projects now rather than later, asking for help in three ways, always saying yes to social opportunities, branding oneself, and writing thank you notes.

5 tips for achieving a career you love
This document provides 5 tips for achieving a fulfilling career: 1) Stop making excuses and limiting beliefs, 2) Believe you can achieve your career goals, 3) Get clarity on your passions and strengths, 4) Conquer your fears of change and uncertainty, 5) Put a clear plan in place to pursue your dream career. It encourages the reader to pursue work they are passionate about rather than just staying in a job for salary or comfort. Taking action like networking and learning from others can help discover one's ideal "trifecta career" that is financially supporting and personally fulfilling.
Doing What You Love
This document discusses finding passion and purpose in life beyond just work. It suggests that viewing work and play as a false dichotomy limits life's possibilities. Fear of the unknown, risk, and job security often hold people back from pursuing their passions. The document provides advice on using an "overlap technique" to explore passions while maintaining current employment for support, including setting a consistent schedule, building a portfolio, saving money from passion projects, and ultimately making the leap to full-time passion work despite lack of perfect timing. Assessing general interests and finding their intersection can help identify new passions. Hobbies and work do not need to remain separate.

Job Hunting - hats the way to create a strategy!pptx
I've often used Edward de Bono's Six Thinking Hats® at work to provide a structured but creative and highly effective approach for formulating strategies to tackle difficult and challenging situations, on both a group and individual basis.
As I have recently left my employer, I thought I would apply the hats to develop a clear job hunting strategy for securing my next role.
The easiest and, in my opinion, most effective way to use the hats is to do so sequentially:
White Hat - what are the facts (not opinions) about the situation you want to address?
Red Hat - how do you feel about the facts/situation?
Black Hat - what are the causes of your negative feelings and what do you consider to be the downside of the situation?
Yellow Hat - what are reasons for your positive feelings and what do you consider to be the upsides?
Green Hat - what ideas/options can you identify to overcome your negative feelings, address the downsides and build upon your positive feelings and the upsides?
Blue Hat - taking everything into consideration, what clear actions are you going to implement to take control of the situation?
I found the experience to be very cathartic and I have produced a couple of slides to summarise the outputs.
If you have any questions about de Bono's hats and their practical application, I'd be happy to help.
Hopefully this will resonate and inspire you to create your own job hunting strategy.
Good luck!
