Your Best Selling Point

Guess…

Every New Year brings a season of hope, so I hope this encourages you, especially those of you looking for work: There are a kazillion ways to make money with what you know how to do.

You just have to keep trying, and I know that’s not as easy as it sounds.

Rejection is disheartening. Regardless of legal protections, age does make a difference. But do everything within your power to focus on your skill-set and your experience.

Make a list of each thing you do better than almost anyone else. Every victory, every award, and every mistake.

Yes, every mistake, because you learned from each one of them.

You think the deck is stacked against you? Check THIS out:

Keep knocking on doors. Walk through every one that opens, even if you have doubts, because you will have doubts.

Don't let failures get you down. I know that's hard, but if you'd stopped trying to walk every time you fell when you were a toddler, you'd never have left your nursery.

Find a relentlessly positive friend who knows how to listen, and who will help pick you up when you get knocked down.

You can do this.
