Finding Your Dream Job How do you identify your dream job?

1. What are my transferable skills? What are my fields of fascination? 2. Draw a picture or in this case, The Flower diagram we use in Parachute, to have a picture of your new career. Give it a name. Go find a person who is already doing it. 3. Interview that person for information, to find out what job is really like. 4. Research organizations in your area. 5. Network and seek out persons who have power to hire you. 6. Use your contacts to get to this person and show him how you stand out among others. 7. Take no short cuts, if you need to re-train or go back to school to get your dream job, do it. 8. Do not put all your eggs in one basket. If one path isn’t working, try a Plan B.

The 10 Commandments for Job Interviews

1. Go after small organizations, those with 20-50 employees. 2. Ask everyone you know to keep a look out for your specific job opening. 3. Do your homework on organization before going there. 4. Identify person with power to hire you and use your contacts to see this person. 5. Ask for only 20 minutes of their time and keep to your word. 6. Go to interview to see if this organization suits your values, your agenda and your life. 7. When answering questions keep your answers down to 20 seconds or two minutes, max. 8. Approach them as a resource person who can offer a service rather than a job beggar. 9. Always send a thank-you note very next day after an interview. 10. Little things may turn them off such as personal hygiene and lack of self-confidence. The Seven Secrets of Salary Negotiation

1. Never discuss salary until end of interviewing process, when they have definitely said they will hire you. 2. The purpose of salary negotiation is to find out most that an employer is willing to pay to get you. 3. Never be first to mention a salary figure. 4. Do your homework on how much you will need per month. 5. Do careful research on salaries in your field or in that organization. 6. Define a range employer may have in mind, and a range for yourself. 7. Don’t leave it hanging. Bring salary negotiation to a close. Request a letter of agreement or an employment contract. Get it in writing.

Re-read definition of Law of Attraction: We attract into our lives whatever we give our attention to, whether wanted or unwanted. Law of Attraction responds to these negative feelings and gives us more of them. Law of Attraction does not know whether it is something you want or not; it simply responds to your mood or feeling and gives you more of it.

Each time you hear yourself make a Declarative Statement that does not serve you, simply restate it and offer a better mood or feeling. Here is a quick way to turn a negative statement into a positive Declarative Statement.

Simply ask yourself: "So, what do I want?"

The moment you define what you do want, you start to experience a new mood or feeling, and Law of Attraction will respond to this better mood or feeling.

Over next few days, start to notice what is appearing in your life, that is, what you are attracting. Then think back to what mood or feeling you may have offered that could have attracted what appeared. You'll soon find yourself manifesting more and more of what you do want, and less of what you don't want, by deliberately putting Law of Attraction to work for you.
