How To Find Love If You Are A Busy Woman

How To Find Love If You Are A Busy Woman I’ll tell you one thing â€" it’s difficult. Successful career requires devotion, and so does a successful relationship. I have not figured out a way to make the day at least 30 hours long or help you be at two places at the same time. But I can walk you through the inner work you need to be doing if you want true love. Prioritize. It may sound like nothing new, but the fact is so many women are confused about what they want. There is a big disconnect between what they may feel inside â€" which is the need for happy relationship, and what they demonstrate to the outer world â€" which is that they are strong, independent and happy this way. Sounds about right? It’s normal to be confused and it doesn’t have to be one or the other, but in order to reach balance, you need to clarify what balance means to you. When I say clarify, I mean two things: clarify emotionally and clarify in practice. Emotionally, you need to decide what would be more important â€" your career or your man. And you should think about what the answer means and does it give you what you want. What type of men would be OK with being less important than your career? Would you be OK with them? What would you like to see in a man in order to put him first? I am not saying make a list, but have an idea (and of course many books have been written on this subject like [amazon template=productasin=157731476X]) When it comes to practical clarity, you should literally know what you are willing to sacrifice in order to have a relationship. I am not saying sacrifice it for every fool walking on earth, but I am saying there will be someone who deserves it. So what would it be? Would you work less? Would you go out less? Would you spend less time with your friends? If you are not willing to move an inch in order to make room for a man in your life, how do you expect anyone to move an inch for you? Accept it will happen. A big part of bad relationship decisions comes from the fear that you will never find what you are looking for. You may think this fear is hidden deep within you, but it has a way of re-appearing when you least need it. The doubt that you will ever find true love lowers your confidence and directly affects your personal life. For example, if you start dating a great guy, you would probably react as a crazy person, because your fear tells you “Now or never!” So you would obsess over everything he does and says and end up being dumped. If you meet an alright guy, who deserves a chance, you would probably disregard him, because you are too busy looking for The One and your fear is telling you time is running out. Thinking that it’s just not meant to happen to you is actually what causes you to continuously experience it just not happening. The only way to get out of this Paragraph 22 is to change your mindset â€" accept that love is not only possible, but certain. A great way to do that is to take the thought of a happy relationship and take it down its pedestal. It is not a magical thing that only appears in movies. It happened to me and it will happen to you. I actually remember that I was quite ready for a serious relationship right before I met my husband, but I was not going around all desperate. I was actually thinking “The next guy I will start going out with, I will marry, so I better enjoy these last moments of being single.” And it is true â€" you are not 18 anymore and don’t make rooky mistakes when it comes to choosing guys for relationships. So if it really gets serious, it will probably really get serious. This is what awaits you around the corner for sure. So stop hurry ing towards it. Enjoy these last few steps as a single woman. Grow your feminine energy When I was a kid, my father once told me that a woman’s biggest strength is her weakness. I was 10 so I had no idea what he was talking about.  It took me almost 20 years to realize how right he was. As women fought  for Women’s Rights, its cause eventually  entered our homes. And we sort of won â€" women are now free to do whatever they want and make good money for it. But when you win you don’t know what you’re losing and in our case, we lost our ability to be feminine. We are so focused on being strong and independent, almost as if we have to prove we can be. Well, we proved it. Now what? There is nothing wrong with being a successful woman, who stands her ground, but we also don’t know it all. And our strength is the ability to live with this and admit it. This is what men simply cannot do. Men hate asking for advice and admitting ignorance. So if a woman does it and they get to save her â€" this is their dream come true! Is this so difficult â€" to give men this little feminine quality that they may mock sometimes, but seek out all their lives? So next time he can help, ask him to â€" sometimes even if you don’t need it. I am not saying I can guarantee you will find love. But do those internal shifts for good and come tell me what happens at blizzardtoabreeze.com

Fed Chair Yellens Job Market Remarks A Recruiters Perspective - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career

Fed Chair Yellens Job Market Remarks A Recruiters Perspective - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career In remarks made recently to a Central Banking Conference meeting in Jackson Hole, WY, Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen attributed at least some of the persistent unemployment/underemployment woes in today’s job market to the fact that the market continues to be “hampered” (emphasis mine) by the lingering effects of the Great Recession. A few of Ms. Yellen’s key points: • Even though the jobless rate has fallen faster than expected in recent years, the economic disruption during and following the Great Recession has nonetheless left millions of workers sidelined, i.e., unemployed, discouraged, or stuck in part-time jobs, i.e., under-employed, facts that are not necessarily fully accounted for by the unemployment rate alone. • Accurately assessing whether or not the economy is close to (or at) full employment is complicated by ongoing shifts in the structure and dynamics of the labor market, as well as the possibility that the severe recession caused persistent changes in the way the labor market functions. • It remains difficult to determine with any high degree of precision exactly how much slack remains in the labor market. Such an assessment needs to become more nuanced to remain consistent with and be measured within the context of the Fed’s dual mandate of stable prices and full employment. Not much to argue with here, actually, from an overall, broad perspective from on-high in the nation’s capitol. However, as radio great Paul Harvey used to say, “Now, for the rest of the story.” A View from the Trenches From down here in the trenches, as a professional recruiter, a “headhunter,” who must deal with the realities of the job market each and every business day, I would like to add to Ms. Yellen’s remarks, her analysis, thereby providing what I believe is a more rounded-out perspective on the current job market. Without question, the Great Recession had a significant, devastating and long-lasting impact on the job market, and at least some of those effects are indeed still being felt today by both the hiring companies and job candidates. But, in my opinion, the carryover of the Great Recession mentality and mindset is the single biggest contributor to the current job market woes of unemployment/underemployment. That is, both the hiring companies and job candidates don’t seem to have gotten the word that the Great Recession is over and adjusted their thinking, their approaches accordingly! Here are just FOUR things hiring companies are currently doing that continues to “hamper” the job market: 1. Despite the fact that most companies have seen significant increases in recent years in production and income, many companies continue to take a “wait and see” approach to increasing staff, i.e., hiring new workers. 2. Those companies who have found that they can no longer avoid hiring staff, if they want to remain competitive in a worldwide marketplace, are using antiquated methods to attract top talent. For example, 14% of the eligible workforce is actively looking for a new position. This means that when a company posts an ad, it is exposing itself to only 14% of the available talent pool. However, a recent LinkedIn survey indicated that an additional 40% who are not actively looking are open to a “career conversation” with either a company recruiter or a third-party recruiter. Placing an ad in today’s job market is simply a “post and hope” approach for a company. 3. Those companies that now have the necessary mechanisms and procedures in place to add staff, and have actively begun recruiting and interviewing prospective new employees, are oftentimes subjecting candidates to a ridiculously long, drawn out process. This approach is merely prolonging the unemployment situation across virtually all industry lines. For example, a report released in the middle of August 2014 by Dice Holdings indicates that the average time to fill a job opening has actually increased 50% from 20 until now. 4. Because some companies have subjected prime candidatesâ€"those usually hired first for the critical positions when the economy recoversâ€"to what I refer to as “death by interview,” some really GREAT companies are losing out on hiring top talent! While the effects of such shortsightedness may not be immediately felt, you can be assured that it won’t be long before they are felt! Job candidates themselves are also sometimes proving to be their own worst enemies in today’s job market. Here are FOUR things that I see candidates do, day in and day out, that “hampers” the job market: 1. Many candidates continue to labor under the impression (FALSE!) that companies are in the business of hiring people. They are not! Companies are in the business of making money, period, or at least they better be or they won’t be in business long. To be hired today, or even  to  be considered for a position, a candidate must show a hiring company how he/she can make ‘em money or save ‘em money, or both. No exceptions. 2. A sizeable percentage of candidates still don’t seem to get how very, very important it is that they make a good first impression on hiring companies. I am seeing today, for example, a far greater portion of sloppily written, poorly prepared resumes (full of misspellings, grammatical errors, etc.) than at any other time since I have been in the recruiting business. Candidates who give such short shrift to a key ingredient of a job application like their résumé not only will not be in serious contention for a new job, they won’t even make it to “first base.” 3. At least some candidates seem to be waiting for “the good old days” to return, when all one had to do was go online, select a job (or jobs) that looked “interesting,” fire off a generic cover letter (if they sent one at all) and (usually, the same) résumé to the postings and then simply sit back an wait for hiring companies to contact them. NEWS FLASH! The “good old days” never were actually that good to begin with, and you can definitely be assured that they are NOT coming back! To be successful in landing a job today candidates must take the initiative and considerably up their game! Again, no exceptions! 4. Maybe it’s the result of too much interaction by social media, e.g., Twitter, Facebook, etc., but many candidates today seem either incapable or unwilling to engage others on an individual, “person to person” basis. Example: A fellow recruiter recently told me about an experience she had with a candidate she presented to a hiring company. The candidate was taken for a plant tour during the interview phase. One of the operators the group encountered asked the candidate, “Do you like baseball?” The candidate’s response: “Yes.” That’s it. “What team do you like?” asked the operator. “Mets,” was the candidate’s answer. No engagement, no obvious interpersonal skills at all! Not a great way to impress a potential employer! So, yes, as Ms. Yellen said, the lingering effects of the Great Recession are continuing to have somewhat of a negative effect on the overall job market today. But as I have shown you, that is hardly the whole story. Hiring companies need to divest themselves of their Great Recession mindset and get back in the business of businessâ€"making money and thereby making a significant contribution to society and the worldwide economy. The way to do that is to streamline their hiring processes and procedures and start putting people to work on a timely basis! Likewise, job candidates need to stop and smell the roses. They need to considerably improve their job application and interviewing skills. Many need to seriously up their game and become far better prepared to more effectively compete in a job market that is still mighty challenging! Then, and only then, will we see genuine and long-lasting improvement in the job market. ____________________________________________ Going on a job interview soon? Know someone who is?

Learn from Martha Stewart about bouncing back

Learn from Martha Stewart about bouncing back Career success depends on how you cope with failure. Whether its a big failure or a small one you must be able to bounce back. Much of the grand success in life comes from grand opportunity, and you dont find that opportunity unless you keep looking. People who are easily discouraged get fewer opportunities. But how does one become good at failing? How do you bounce back quickly? Martha Stewart provides some good lessons in this area. Because whether or not you think she should have gone to prison, you have to admit that prison does not seem to have gotten her down. When it comes to scope of failure, most of us would have crumbled way before we got to prison. So take a look at the steps she took to ensure she would bounce back, and use them to create your own career resilience. Of course, its easier to have resilience when you have millions of dollars. But Martha made four tactical moves that you can do yourself, even on your relatively penurious budget. Use your network as a safety net. Networking isnt only for a job hunt. Its also for failure, which tends to make you feel alone, even if others fail with you. A circle of your own informal advisors and supporters can make you feel less isolated and help you to bounce back faster. You need a range of friends when you fail. Sometimes you need a lawyer, sometimes you need someone to hang out at a bar all night with you. When you are failing, and you think the damage is irrevocable, your network will help you get perspective. And dont forget your family the people who are usually last to abandon you when you do something stupid. During Marthas ordeal she was dependent on her daughter, Alexis. Alexis showed up for court every day, as is customary for families of the rich-and-famous-and-accused. But Alexis also visited Martha in prison and served as her mouthpiece to the media. (Martha is fine. She is eating out of vending machines.) Martha shows us that we are never too important to need family in our network. Fail fast. Once you see things spiraling downward, face reality quickly and get out. The faster you fail the faster you can move on to the next thing. Denial can derail you. Dont continue to try to fix the unfixable because you cant face the fact that you failed. Martha had the benefit of many paid advisors to help her out of denial. Though you will have to depend on unpaid friends who may not be experts, listen to them to gain some perspective on how deep a hole youre in. Its always easier to see someone elses trouble than your own. Once you see recognize big trouble, focus on speed. Martha could have dragged the court battle out even longer. She could have stayed out of prison while she appealed. But for the public, the drama will be over when Martha leaves prison, so she went in quickly. Dont hide. Failure is loud. If it werent no one would have to admit to failing. So once its obvious, face the crowd and show that you can handle it. The most interesting failures are when people completely fall apart. If someone looks resilient, and not likely to fold, failure is not as interesting to watch. Thats what you want: Such flair for failing that no one pays attention. As soon as Martha left prison, she took steps to show the public that she was her same old Martha self- and maybe a little bit better. She took a chartered jet home wearing fashionable clothes. She strolled the grounds of her home feeding her horse and serving drinks to the media circus surrounding her home. She also took questions from reporters, which is brave thing to do in a situation when most people would be too embarrassed. Frame failure for yourself. Failure is subjective. You can frame failure as career killing, but you gain nothing from this outlook. A better decision is to frame failure as a learning opportunity. Martha announced that shes a better person after her time in prison. Most of us, in fact, are better people from our failures, but if you dont frame it that way to yourself, you lose the opportunity to consciously put the learning to use.

How to use Twitter to your career advantage - Debut

How to use Twitter to your career advantage - Debut This post was written by an external contributor.  Michele Theil advises how to use one of the biggest social media platform to make you more employable.   When I was a kid, I was told that I had to be careful on the internet. Especially when it came to what I posted. How we portray ourselves to others on social media could end up having a significant impact on future opportunities. Many students in the U.S.A for instance scrub up their social media or change their names online when they apply to colleges. This is because social media is now a big part of admissions if you have said rude or offensive things online, many colleges will deem you as not befitting for that particular institution. In the UK, whilst universities dont look at your social media, employers often do. As a result, many people switch their accounts to private or keep their social media very tame and carefully curated, in order to make sure that nothing on their Twitter profiles for instance will be used against them. However, while you do have to be careful about what you post, there are ways of infusing your personal views into your Twitter profile and using the platform to your advantage. Follow everyone When I say everyone, I don’t mean literally everybody who’s ever created a Twitter account. I mean follow those that are in the field you want to go into. If you want to be a journalist, follow some famous reporters and media outlets and keep up-to-date with the industry. You should also follow accounts that reflect your interests. This way, you can create a discussion about the content of these accounts in future interviews, or when you’re pitching something that relates to that field specifically. Many people will also tweet new opportunities in the industry, like jobs, work experience and calls for pitches too. It’s a great way to find out about something you otherwise wouldn’t have known about! Retweet, retweet, retweet A social media expert once told me that whilst retweeting was good, retweeting with your own comment was even better. This mantra was based off of the idea that people are more inclined to notice you if you’re expressing your own opinions and thoughts rather than merely reposting someone else’s. To use Twitter to your advantage, you must engage with it by retweeting articles, ideas and images and adding your own ‘twist’. This will make you more noticeable in the wider twittersphere and demonstrate that you are engaged with the online conversation. Thread it along Twitter threads are extremely popular nowadays. With so much going on in the world, threads are useful in creating long-form content while keeping your ideas succinct. When a topical issue pops up, think carefully about what you want to put out there. When you’re writing a tweet or creating a thread, don’t forget to add relevant hashtags to make them easier to find and generate more attention to them you might even end up on the trending page! If you find success with a thread or a tweet, it may be a good idea to pin them to your profile. When someone clicks on your profile, seeing an interesting tweet at the top may make them more inclined to follow you for future tweets. Showcase your personality I am careful with what I post on Twitter but that doesn’t mean I don’t let my personality bleed through once in a while.  If a future employer or someone you may work with at a later date is looking at your profile and can’t see who you are through your tweets, they might not be confident about your fit for a company. In an interview, you’d be on your best behaviour (as you should be). However on Twitter and social media in general you can express yourself as you please. Just remember, don’t go overboard, but don’t be afraid to show who you are either. Create a brand Social Media is just another way of branding yourself and what you say in your bio as well as the images you use are a big part of that. Profile photos shouldn’t be too serious, but you should feel comfortable sending that photo in with your CV if you had to. If you’re lacking a photo that fits these parameters, put on your best ‘interview’ outfit and stage a photoshoot with a friend or a housemate it will only take 10 minutes! When it comes to your bio, be straightforward. List who you are, what your job role is and maybe throw in an“all views my own”, just to be safe. If you have a portfolio, link to it! if employers are searching out your Twitter profile, then having your work ready and available to find is a productive way of showcasing your work. Twitter can be a scary thing sometimes but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use it to your advantage. So get tweeting!

7 habits that will kill your next job interview

7 habits that will kill your next job interview So many of my clients and readers say, I aced the interview, but I dont know why I didnt get a call for the next round. Well, I guess you didnt ace the interview, did you? Sometimes you do well but they go with another candidate for a variety of other reasons. But having said that, it is also possible that you made some interview bloopers. When youre aiming to nail the big job interview, how you speak is as important as how you look. Youve got the impressive résumé, solid references, and a professional outfit. But careless language could jeopardize your chance of landing that plum job. Interview expert Darlene Price offers some insight about the seven common habits that can keep you from truly acing that interview: 1. Too much information Avoid talking too much during the interview. In the business world, time is money. Bosses value employees who speak in a clear, concise manner. By all means, be interesting and use a personable enthusiastic voice, but avoid rambling. Get to the bottom line quickly. As a general rule, keep your answers under two minutes. This habit not only shows youre well prepared and succinct, it also allows time for the interviewer to ask more questions and get to know you better. 2. Not tooting your own horn You can bet the candidates before and after you are selling themselves, so be sure you articulate your value. The primary purpose of a job interview is for the interviewer to fully understand your capabilities and professional worth. Are you a good fit for this position? Dont depend on a résumé or references to speak for you. Sell yourself. With every answer, show a direct correlation between your skills and the job requirements. End the interview by saying, Thank you for your consideration of me for this role. Im confident I will meet and exceed your expectations. 3. Sounding unprepared Uhwowthats a great question. Hmmm(throat clear), I havent really thought about that. Lets see, um, what are my strengths? You can almost hear the interviewer thinking, Next! Anticipate likely interview questions. Craft your answers and be sure to rehearse them aloud. Practice at least three to five times prior to the interview, ideally to another person who can provide feedback. Record a few rehearsals. Listen to them, time your responses, and tweak your answers. Practice helps ensure you sound prepared, professional, and polished. Plus, being prepared is the very best way to minimize nerves and anxiety. 4. Badmouthing others Nothing tanks an interview faster than making negative comments about a previous employer and having the interviewer perceive sour grapes. In addition to assessing capabilities, the interviewer is also assessing if you would be a good fit within the company culture, which usually seeks to provide a pleasant and positive work environment for employees. Avoid pessimism and negativity. Use language that conveys a positive attitude, camaraderie, and helpfulness. 5. Using weak words and phrases. There are many common culprits when it comes to weak words, and a few to keep in mind are: I might Ill try Maybe Kind of Sort of Replace these hesitant, unconvincing words with power phrases such as: I can I recommend My track record shows Im confident that For example, you can say, I bring 15 years experience in marketing, where I increased sales by 30 percent, instead of saying, I bring a lot of experience in marketing, where I tried to increase sales. 6. Not asking questions During an interview, your questions say as much about you as your answers. When the interviewer asks, Do you have any questions? Never say, No. This implies a lack of confidence, preparation, or interest â€" none of which is appropriate for a job interview. Craft at least three to five open-ended genuine questions (not generic) about the industry, company, and position. Do your research ahead of time. Dont ask, What exactly does this company do? Ask, As the No. 1 leader in the biotech industry with eight divisions worldwide, how would you describe this companys management style and the type of employee who makes a good fit? An interview is a two-way street, and your questions help ensure theres a healthy flow of conversation. As a general rule, avoid asking about salary, benefits or perks until the interviewer raises the topic. 7. Admitting you were fired from your last job While you never want to tell a lie during a job interview, you do want to tactfully explain why you left the company (or were asked to leave). For example, I enjoyed my last job very much and believed in the people and products that represented the company. My boss and I held very different convictions when it came to the importance of quality and customer service. It soon became clear to both of us that I would be happier in a new role â€" like this one. Then you can transition into talking about the company where youre applying. Using positive language, explain why you left. Then redirect the focus of the interview back to why youre right for the job.

Writing Samples: How to Choose the Right Writer For Your Resume

Writing Samples: How to Choose the Right Writer For Your ResumeFor employers looking for the right writer, you can use writing samples to help you find the right fit. While you may not be sure how to find the right person, there are several things you can do to make it easier. Take a look at the following suggestions.First, check out samples of samples. In most cases, these come in a form that is directly from the writer. The writer has taken a time to create a sample resume based on his or her own experiences. This should give you an idea of what the sample looks like and the type of writing you are likely to find.You can also check to see if the resume includes a letter of application. Your next step is to create your own letter. Many people do this in Microsoft Word by selecting File, New, Document, and then using the blank page in the Document tab as the heading. Next, select Insert Text, and then write down your personal information and the major qualifications that you want.Als o, there are companies that offer sample resumes. Some of these sites include sample essays as well. These will be edited to meet with the specific needs of the company. These sample resumes are more personalized and will often include a larger number of applicants than a resume found online.Besides samples, another way to get an idea of what a writer can do is to look at the kind of things he or she has done. If you are not sure what to look for, start by looking at the writing samples. This will help you know how much experience the writer has in the industry. It is also important to know how the writing samples compare to what the company requires.Some examples of samples can include writing services, transcription services, and all forms of content writing. Some of these may not be ideal for the position you are seeking. Take this into consideration when you are checking out samples. The writer can use a combination of samples and other writing in order to create the perfect res ume.Other places to find samples are employment-related magazines, as well as certain websites. Check to see if the writer has been published in any of these places. It is also helpful to research the person by asking friends and family members for their thoughts on the writer.The most important thing to remember is that you need to choose someone who has the experience you require. Also, find a writer who has the experience you need to get the job. This will ensure that you have the most qualified candidate available.
