Fortune favors the brave.
– Publius Terence
Have you ever heard anyone say, “You make your own luck”? Or, “The harder I work, the luckier I get”? That’s what this quote is all about. If you’re brave enough to step out of your comfort zone and take action, good things can happen. (If you don’t take action, you can’t make anything happen.)
Job searching can be a scary time of putting yourself out there and getting rejected. It can seem like everything you do in a job search is difficult. But I want to encourage you this week that if you’re scard or having difficulty, remember this quote.
If it makes you nervous to contact a hiring manager, think “Fortune favors the brave,” and do it. If you’re uncomfortable letting your network know you’re out of work and looking, think “Fortune favors the brave,” and go for it. Good luck will find you.
I want to encourage you to attend one of our free training webinars. I keep them upbeat and motivating as well as educational. Check out what topics we’re covering this week and next: Free Training Webinars. Pick a webinar and show up. You get free gifts, too–and who doesn’t get a lift out of a gift?
I wish you the best of luck this week in your job search!
