8. Do something you love every day."Take an hour or so each day and do something you enjoy that energizes you, whether it's working out, gardening, listening to music, or whatever makes you happy," Mattson advises. Getting some endorphins flowing on a regular basis helps combat the job-search blues.
每天都做一些你喜歡的事情。麥特森建議:“每天花一個小時左右,做一些你喜歡的事情,讓自己精力充沛,包括健身、園藝、聽音樂,或者其他任何能讓你高興的事情。”經常讓你的內啡肽流動,可以幫你克服找工作帶來的負面情緒。
9. Don't beat yourself up."I have clients who say things like, 'I've been on x number of interviews and still haven't gotten any offers -- what's wrong with me?'," says Mattson. "The answer is, nothing! A long job search is an emotional roller coaster, and it's important to acknowledge that you're going to have good days and bad days. The bad days are a normal part of the process. They're not your fault."
不要氣餒。麥特森說:“我的一些客戶會說:‘我已經參加過x次面試了,可是依然沒有得到工作機會——我有什么問題嗎?’答案是,你沒有任何問題!長時間的求職會使人的情緒像過山車一樣。求職者得承認,生活中有高潮就會有低谷,現在的低谷只是這個過程中正常的組成部分。這并不是你的錯。”
10. Remind yourself of your successes."Only you can tell others how good you are, but first you have to believe it yourself," Mattson says. "Write down a list of everything you've done in your career, and your life, that you're most proud of, and re-read it often." The point is to stay focused on the fact that, as she puts it, "you have been successful before -- and you will be again."
時刻提醒自己曾經的成就。麥特森表示:“只有你能告訴別人,你有多么優秀;但是,首先你自己要有信心。找出你在職場和生活中做過的最讓你自豪的事情,列一個清單,經常拿出來溫習一遍。”她解釋說,關鍵是要始終堅持一個信念:“我曾經取得過成功——將來,我也能再創輝煌。”
