As I watch the 2014 Olympics from Sochi, I am amazed to see and hear
about the hours and years of training the participants have devoted to their
sport. I wonder if job seekers devoted
even a tenth of the effort that these athletics have, if the job seekers would
be working today.
Training for a sport takes discipline and regimen to practice and
participate in competitive events.
Disappointment is a frequent occurrence for these athletics; however,
they immediately return to practice and pay attention to the corrective advice
from coaches. They are resilient and
return prepared for the next competitive event.
I encourage all job seekers to consider the dedication to the task
at hand just as the Olympians have. I
suggest that they review their objectives and develop a strategy to find
meaningful employment.
Further, you should remember to focus on the task and not be
discouraged by minor set-backs. Please
remember, if an Olympian had quit after the first failure, he/she would never
be standing on a podium receiving a medal.
Readers of this blog who have successfully found employment are
encouraged to share suggestions for job seekers by commenting in this blog or

Thanks! Glyn
