Nobody likes to go home not feeling good about what they’re doing - especially when looking for work. 

It’s easy to drift into wondering if you’re not doing enough or if you could be doing more. But without a clear visualization of what you’ve actually been doing, the only thing you have to base that on is your emotions, which can be fickle and untrustworthy.

On this episode, we’ll talk about what sane, healthy, activity tracking looks like. How it can help you visualize the momentum you’re generating each day. Give you a clear baseline to judge your efforts. And how it helps you go home each day proud.

When it comes to talking about yourself during a work search, people tend to fall onto two ends of the spectrum: not at all (and having a hard time finding a job) or all the time (and having a hard time not coming off as self absorbed).

On this episode, we cover a decent, healthy view of talking about yourself and an alternative approach and line of thinking that can help you find your next opportunity without being self absorbed.

Taking time out of your work search to do courses or other training programs can be a tricky call.

For some, it might feel good, but it doesn’t move the needle as much as getting out and talking to your friends.

For others, not having a certification can be a non-starter for getting a foot in the door in a new industry.

On this episode, we talk through how to make the right call for yourself so that you’re working on what matters and not putting up false barriers to finding your next opportunity.
