How to Land Your Dream Job




1.Find a quiet place. Go somewhere where you can think without being disturbed. This activity is great just before bed or first thing in the morning. If you live alone, this part will be easy. If you live with others, try to pick a time when everyone else is sleeping.

2.Take out your notebook and pen. You will use it later.

3.Close your eyes and imagine that anything is possible. See yourself in your dream job. You may not know what your dream job is, in that case, you know what you want (i.e. to work from home, to generate "X" dollars, be able to have flexible schedule, etc.), imagine how your life would be if you had these things. Do this imagining process until you can feel the happiness you would feel if you had the job now.

4.Take out your notebook and pen. Write down all the characteristics of your dream job (such as, I work in a small office of 6-12 people, I travel extensively, I am outside most of the day, etc). Ask yourself, "If I got everything on my paper and nothing else, would I be happy?". Keep adding items until the answer to that question is "Yes".

5.Set the list aside. If you have a spiritual bent, pray over the items.

6.Follow every instinct. Begin to actively search job boards, listen to conversations, read trade magazines. If you get the feeling that you should call, e-mail, or read something- DO IT!
