Finally, when writing a career objective, resume writers should consider potential employer's point of view. In a competitive job market, where hiring personnel sit behind stacks of non-descript resumes, inclusion of a little "self-promotion" is critical. Ask yourself, "what do I have that this company wants?". Is it doing whatever it takes to get job done? Is it attention to detail? Then write, "dedicated" or "quality-conscious". Consider terms that describe your work habits while offering something positive for employer.

Composing a good resume requires focused time and effort. Never try to hurry process by leaving out who, what, and why of your employment search. By utilizing following top-10 tips list as a guide for developing your objective statement, you will be well on your way to creating your own job winning resume.

The Top-10 Tips List for Writing a Winning Objective Statement:

1. Choose two adjectives to describe your work style such as, "Dependable and conscientious student seeking..." or "Detail oriented and quality conscious accounting clerk..."
2. Inform your potential employer of "what is in it for them", such as, "...seeking to utilize 10+ years experience in industry..." or "...proven sales record..."
3. One sentence is good, but making sense is better! If warranted, two sentences or in some cases a short paragraph will improve an objective statement.
4. If you know job title for which you are applying, use it. There is nothing to be gained in trying to define a new position for yourself.
5. If you have read job description in an advertisement, try to mirror one or two of words listed. For instance, if job announcement has indicated a desire for a self-starter, then experiment with using same term or one with same meaning, such as in this case, "self-motivated" or "self-directed".
6. As always, grammar and spelling count! It is expected that resumes will have short sentence fragments, abbreviations, and little punctuation, but your career objective should be written without error. Proofread!
7. Avoid being too general in your statement. It is better to do a little research with company and uncover some of what they may be looking for than to write an over-generalized objective that essentially says nothing to employer.
8. Ambition is nice, but statements such as "work my way up to..." will impress no one and may undercut your credibility.
9. If possible, experiment with writing an objective without use of word, "I". It can be done! "I", is more appropriately used in a cover letter. Using "I" and "my" too frequently may loose a recruiter whose context and focus is on what company can gain from a new hire.
10. Do not promise more than you can deliver! If you are chronically late, then describing yourself as punctual will only undermine your credibility later when it is discovered that you have misrepresented yourself.

Third, in order that one develop this creative capacity he must, paradoxically, be aware of certain disciplines. These disciplines, however, are not rules of limitation or confining parameters but, rather, are conditions to be alert to that would tend to restrict flow of ideas.

Look at it this way. A soft rubber ball naturally assumes its round shape as a ball. If you were to distort your ball by winding it with elastic bands, you would have a grotesque , distorted shape that's all bound up and restricted because of unnatural limits imposed on it by elastics. It would in no way resemble a ball. But if you were to remove restrictive elastics, ball would resume its natural shape as a ball.

Note this: You do not have to do anything to ball to make it take its natural shape because that is natural shape and characteristic of ball. All you have to do to induce this natural function is to remove restrictive barriers that have prevented it from appearing to be what it really is.

Our thought is much same. It is acceptance of restricting, limiting thoughts that prevent our being consciously aware of ideas of which it is comprised. It's our limited thinking, our blind acceptance of preconceived prejudices that restricts flow of ideas and new concepts. Therefore, it is opening of thought, and quiet mental listening for new ideas that brings them to our conscious awareness. These ideas, remember, are always present in our minds and simply waiting for our recognition of them. This brings forth new concepts and solutions to our problems and points way to new growth opportunities and achievement.
