Sweet Job Advice: Job Search Tips from Stephen R. Covey for Your Job Search

Sweet Advice: Job Search Tips from Stephen R. Covey for Your Job Search

I originally started to read, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey in 1989. Sadly I never finished the book. I have picked the book up again, and am re-reading it with the goal of completing it this time. The book is rich with intense content. Have patience with yourself and stay with the book. It will be worth the effort. It will give you additional lessons and insight regarding personal change. Everyone can always improve themselves and their lives by personal and professional re-evaluation.

Being in an active job search or considering looking for a new job is a natural time for re-evaluation.

Read below and use this information to transform your job search and make it more effective.

I wanted to share so far my primary insights, from the book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey, as I see them helping you with your job search.

To succeed in anything in life, you need to start by:

1. Plan – What you want your life to be like,

One has to choose to be proactive, chose to be a player and move forward with your job search.

You will not succeed in your job search if you are not proactive. Now more than ever, you need to be the driver of your destiny.

A successful job search has to start with a positive headset, and to use Stephen Covey’s terms from his book, be proactive. You cannot sit on the sidelines waiting for the companies to call you. You cannot succeed operating a reactive job search.

Read Habit 1: Be Proactive page 78.

Proactive Language

Let’s look at our alternatives.

I can choose a different approach.

I control my own feelings.

I can create an effective presentation.

I will choose an appropriate response.

I choose

I prefer.

I will.

Relative to your job search, “grab the bull by the horns”.

Keep me posted on your results.

As always I believe in you!

Warmly,

Eleanor

Sweet Job Advice: 21 Secrets to Success

Sweet Advice 21 Secrets to Success

Dear Fellow  Executive, and Job Seeker, I wanted to share some success tips with you!

21 Secrets to Success From Coach John Wooden   During one of my weekly seminars, an executive shared with me his admiration for Coach John Wooden. He was right to admire him. Coach Wooden understands life with good common sense.  With everything going on today's world, we sometime need to remind ourselves to get back to some of the tried and true basics, to keep "winning the game." Below you will be able to download copies of  this information for your files and another bonus item from Coach Wooden.   21 Secrets to Success by Coach John Wooden 1. The team with the best players almost always wins. 2  Be quick - but don't hurry. 3. Focus on effort, not winning. 4. Keep it simple. 5. Make your "yes" mean yes. 6. Balance is EVERYTHING. 7. A good leader is first and foremost, a teacher. 8. Game time is when the coach's job is almost over. 9. A great leader cannot worry about being well liked. 10. Great leaders give credit to others, but accept the blame    themselves. 11. Seek consistency - avoid peaks and valleys. 12. Fairness is giving all people the treatment they earn and deserve. 13. The team that makes the most mistakes...WINS! 14. Surround yourself with strong, opinionated people. 15. Teamwork is not a preference, it's a necessity. 16. Rules are made to be followed, not broken. 17. Concentrate on YOUR team, not the opposition. 18. Adjust to your players - don't expect them all to adjust to you. 19. Failing to prepare is preparing to fail. 20. Practice doesn't make perfect; only perfect practice makes perfect. 21. Be honest, direct and willing to risk it all for your beliefs.   CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD 21 SECRETS  Happy reading!
