Ways to Stay Positive Part 3
Ways to Stay Positive Part 3Ways to Stay Positive Part 3The job search doesnt have to be such a trying experience. Cancel the pity party, fill your days and focus on happiness first.In Part I and Part II of this series, I shared with you six of nine ways to remain positive during a job searchRelive past wins.If you cant get out of it, get into it.Visualize what you want.Anticipate and embrace change Dont be hijacked by it.Focus on strengths leid weaknesses.Remember Nietszche That which does elend kill us makes us stronger.Now, for the final installment, here are three mora tips for keeping your game face on and ensuring you put your best foot forward as you move forth with your job search.1. Choose your friends wisely.Theres always room for one mora at a pity party. And although the lure is attractive, you have to turn down the invitation. Misery does love company, but so does happiness. If you surround yourself with negative people youll be more negative. Conversely, if you connec t regularly with people who have a positive outlook, youll find yourself smiling a lot more than you frown.Which of your colleagues brighten your day? What friends exude joy, instead of exhaustion, on the phone?By embracing your natural sense of optimism and can-do attribute and surrounding yourself with others with a similar outlook, youll find a way to make your job search productive and enjoyable.On a recent trip to San Diego, I spent over an hour at the American Airlines baggage carousel waiting for my luggage to arrive from my flight from JFK. Sure, it was frustrating (especially since the flight had been delayed eight hours). One woman decided she was going to throw a pity party and all 200 passengers were invited. She started to complain, loudly. She wasnt happy being miserable by herself, so she worked really hard to recruit those around her and several joined her to complain. Soon it became a mob. You could feel the tension and negative energy in the air and as each minut e passed, it became more and more toxic. Although the lure was attractive, I knew I had to resist. It wasnt going to make my luggage arrive any quicker and it would have had a major impact on my demeanor for the coming days.Spend some time thinking about your personal support system and ensure it is filled with people who will help you see the bright side of every situation.Who are you hanging around with?2. When you feel empty, give to others.Out of a job? Volunteer. You cant spend your entire day on the job- search process you need a diversion. Nothing makes you realize how rich you are as contributing value to something about which you are passionate or working with those less fortunate. When you give, you get back a thousand times. Sure, giving money will make you feel good, but giving of your time, expertise and compassion will be far more beneficial to your attitude.Volunteering is the perfect activity. Its even been called the ultimate interview. You can choose to contribute your expertise to a cause furthering your thought leadership or take on a role that is 180 degrees away from your normal work activities to give you a new perspective. In either case, you will find your efforts fulfilling. Poet Kahlil Gibran once said, It is well to give when asked, but it is better to give unasked, through understanding.In addition to being a major attitude adjustment, volunteering has a positive impact on your job search as well. You get an opportunity to demonstrate your skills, collect interesting stories to discuss during a job interview and expand your network with the people you meet during your volunteer activities. These are the extra benefits that come with feeling good about yourself and your contributions.Giving back is not only good for your community or society, its good for your positivity quotient and for your candidature.How will you contribute to your community or society?3. Keep happiness top-of-mind.To be happy, you need to think happy and k now what things make you happy. One way to do this is to focus a little time every day exploring happiness and what it means to you. This idea comes from a fascinating woman I interviewed for the Reach Branding Club interview series. Her name is Gretchen Rubin, and she embarked on an adventure to understand what happiness is and how to get more of it. She suggests we can all benefit from being aware of what makes us happy and how we can bring more happiness into our lives.It seems like we should all know what makes us happy and how to attract more of it into our lives. But do you?Systematically thinking about happiness is not something we normally do we are much more focused on the mundane activities of work and life.Since my interview with Gretchen, I have been reflecting on what makes me happy by looking at everyday work activities and ranking them on a happiness scale. And from looking at the list, I learned three things about my workday that always make me happyWorking with peop le (brainstorming and collaborating)Creating new content (presentations, articles, curricula)Delegating activities that involve details to people who love detailsIt was really valuable for me to spend focused time thinking about happiness. Now, as you search for your next big role, you too can explore what makes you happy. It will be valuable to your current mood and helpful to deciding among different career opportunities that come your way. You can learn about Gretchens happiness project at happiness-project.com/Ringling Bros. circus entrepreneur, P.T. Barnum, had it right when he said, Many people prefer happiness to success. Happiness is success.What makes you happy, and how can you get more of it?

4 Musts for Finding Paralegal Jobs Quickly
4 Musts for Finding Paralegal Jobs Quickly4 Musts for Finding Paralegal Jobs QuicklyIf you need to move on to a new paralegal job, you dont want to waste time.With paralegal jobs evolving to include aspects previously considered part of the attorney role or being redefined as blended paralegal/legal secretary positions, it can be hard to know where to start.Here are four tips that can greatly increase your chances of getting hired as a paralegal while expanding your professional contacts in the process1. Network, network, network.Paralegal411s Advice for Getting Hired as a Paralegal lists networking as the best way to land paralegal jobs. You can build your network by joining and volunteering or participating on a committee at your local paralegal association. You can find a list of paralegal associations by state on the National Federation of Paralegal Associations (NFPA) website. Most local paralegal associations include automatic NFPA membership. Besides the networking benefits, o ther advantages include discounts on annual conventions and joint conferences, and a subscription to the National Paralegal Reporter.2. Work your social networks.Most paralegals are strong writers, but behauptung days composition and grammar skills are not enough - you also need to think about keywords. These are critical when you prepare your profile on social media. If your profile doesnt rank highly enough in hiring managers search results, no one will spot your profile on LinkedIn or your resume on a job board. If you have experience in a particular type of law, be sure to emphasize keywords specific to that area.Youll want to integrate behauptung words throughout your LinkedIn profile - in your summary, job descriptions and skills section. Also, look online for current paralegal job openings and add terms that apply to you. Finally, if you have skills in litigation, be sure to emphasize them. Lawyers responding to a recent Robert Half Legal survey predicted litigation would b e the largest expected source of new job opportunities for the first half of 2015, and theres no reason to expect that trend to subside throughout the rest of the year.3. Work with a recruiter.Specialized legal staffing firms can connect you with potential employers, training, current job market information and even opportunities for accredited continuing legal education (CLE). Be sure to explore the wide range of free resources some of these legal recruiters offer.4. Build your experience.Volunteering at nonprofits can help you increase your depth of knowledge and add impact to your paralegal resume. Since nonprofits are notoriously understaffed, you might take on projects you ordinarily wouldnt handle. What could be better than a chance to effect positive change in your community and in your own career at the same time?

Click your state to view nearby pro bono options and look for organizatio ns listing paralegals.The less time you spend between jobs the better.
