The job search can be a challenge. How do you, as a jobseeker overcome a career setback in a way that makes you stronger? Our special guest John Nocero would state it is time to ‘Becky Up’. Becky Lynch (John’s Shero) has been quoted as saying: You can be going through hardships sometimes, and you’re struggling, and then you’re wondering if you’re ever gonna make it.
My mentor would call this struggle the ‘dark of the night’ where you wonder if you will ever obtain your goals. And get this, all of us have experienced a career setback.
Seriously – all of us.
But have you considered if your current career trajectory…your current career goals are right for you? Becky was also quoted as stating: It’s so important just to be true to yourself and to own your character and take responsibility for it, and speak up and say: This isn’t right; this isn’t me. It is a great lesson, not just in wrestling but in life. If you’re not feeling something that’s true to your heart… everybody’s gotta be true.
Listen in to this week’s podcast where we provide advice on two key points that every jobseeker should be focused on during their challenges:
- First, why fighting for your career goals and ambitions is critical for anyone who wants to progress personally and professionally.
- And second, why being true to yourself is the key component to the recipe for success.
I will leave you with one more quote by Dan Gable, two-time NCAA National Wrestling Champion: Gold medals aren’t really made of gold. They’re made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts.
