I had a good conversation with my friend again, it is 2am and I should be heading to bed, but before I do so I will like to talk about some things.
The highlight of what I am going to talk about is making most of what you have. What do I mean by this? Will let me share with you a story. Recently, I got excited about this job posting which I believe and can see myself doing. It met all my criteria. Part of the application process is having a recommendation letter. How the process of the job work is they first going to interview people for the first closing date and if they can't find someone that meet the criteria they will open for another pool of people. Will the closing date already past on May 2, 2011. However, I firgure snice it is still posted on their page I still have hope. Plus, I also believe if this is God will I will get it somehow even if everything seem against my odd. I email my instructor to requests a reccomendation letter, I really want it by next week. It turn out that she want to meet with me first before she does so. I was down hearted at first because I thought she will still write me the letter and meet with me later, but she want to meet with me first. I did not see this coming. Although things did not turn out the way I imgine it to I realiese an important lesson. Patient is virtue, because more blessing is to come. My insturctor really want to write an amazing letter that is probably why she want to meet with me and it make sense cause she request to see my resume, I can use this opportunity to practice on interview skills and get improvment on my resume.
The point was, what this incident it make think and I sort of have a conversation in my head about what happend if I did everything I can to the best of my abilities, which is 100% I am working and putting my best effort getting everything edit and review, and I got an interview or not and did not end up getting the job? I ask myself how does that make me feel or respond? If this were me back then ,I probably will be disappointed with myself; however, I relieze now that if it is that case i am no longer disappointed because all the effort is not waste. So making the most of what you have, just because you don't get the job does not mean you are a loser or not a good candidate, just think as if you are preparing yourself for something better. In addtion, knowing that you truely put 100% in that what really matter. You see, I had a case before, where I got an interview but did not get the job, i must admitt I was disappointed, but looking back I honestly did not give it my 100% my resume was one I use all the time and was not really updated, I did not practice for the interview etc. Anyways, back what this case, you really do make most of what you have, if I dont get the job I will still be happy because of the process of all the efforts I put in will help me get a good job as well in the future, I also will push myself by doing a follow up on how I can improve myself. You see that is the beauty of the process part and that is also part of my effort. Again, making most of what you have, I meant this in all area of your life. You don't have to have expensive materials or products to start excersing and eating right you have to make do what you have. You can easily walk outside in the mall etc. It will take pratice but you will eventually get there, I know it is hard cause we are so use to negative self talk but know that you did your best is amazing, and overtime you will have happiness. That is why I choose the images to represent this topic. This is all part of living in the moment and road to happiness.
Thanks for tuning in,
