As I am still on the search for a new career or at least a path that will some day lead to me to where I want to be; I am going through interview after interview. Some days the interviews are great and I feel good after, others well lets just say they are great practice. However, I cannot say I am not getting slightly exhausted from having to sell myself to these people. To them it's the first time show, but to me it's the billionth time I've told this story. It's becoming a bit difficult to seem new and exciting when I don't think I am new and exciting. Yes, I think I am unique and bring something different to the table, I am ME and there is no one out there like me or who can do things the way I do. The difficulty is expressing it in words that explain me, in a way someone hasn't already heard.
I am competing against may of other qualified candidates that all feel the same way about themselves and I have to stand out in the crowd. So as I work on doing this, I will continue to chase opportunities till one comes along and gives me a chance. Typing away cover letter after cover letter and email after email. Praying I stand out amongst the crowd. I wanna stand out like a wild flower amongst the Lilly's.
xoxo
