During this week’s live Job Seeker Webinar, one of the participants was upset over an article she had read in a popular magazine. Most of these articles are written by individuals who are not hiring authorities or involved in placing people in jobs. It is a fact that good news does not sell newspapers or advertisements. Remember, many of the individuals included in the unemployment numbers are NOT actively looking for a job.

Many corporations are enjoying record profits, job satisfaction is under 50% which is the lowest in history and baby boomers are still retiring in record numbers. These trends are in your favor as a job seeker. You owe it to yourself to quit watching, reading or listening to negative news. The success you do or do not enjoy depends greatly on your attitude and expectations. If you think you CAN find a job or CAN’T find a job – you’re right!

It’s time to “tune out” all negativity and view it as noise! The next time someone tells you what you can’t do, the next time someone tells you why you won’t find a job, and the next time someone tries to limit you…ignore the noise and develop the attitude of “JUST WATCH ME!”
