I never ask for help, but I could really use some good vibes today and the rest of the week. The beginning of the week hasn't gone well being turned down for roles or roles being frozen, and I'm trying not to let a few not-so-great days turn into a bad week as I should hear from 3 companies this week. If they all fall through, I’m back to square one… I'll take any positive karma I can get and pass it 10x to you! 🤞🏼POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS🤞🏼
Sending you some much good juju. My therapist tells me that our brains literally can't be anxious and grateful at the same time. So when I'm feeling sideways, I try to come up with a list (even out loud) of things I'm grateful for. It usually gives me a few moments of respite.
Although you cannot physically see which opportunity lies ahead for you, know it is there. This is where we have to have faith in the process. I never saw my opportunities ahead of receiving them and that’s the beauty of it all.
Probably a fresh air day. When I’m hitting that low, I try to take in some nature. Whether it be the beach, local trail, or even a small park.
Make a list of what has gone right instead of focusing on what went wrong. You have more going for you than you realize I bet. Focus on what is to come and set an achievable goal for the rest of the week. You can do it!
You got it, my man. What else can i do for you?
Remember it's darkest right before dawn.
You’ll find something!!

1moI've always found it interesting how the universe works when it comes to job searching - idk, maybe it's just me - but you can go weeks, applying to job after job, into the applicant black hole, without a peep from anyone. And then, ¡BAM! you've got 3 new calls and 4 interviews lined-up. But those giant ups and downs are enough to make a normal person go nuts and start questioning everything. Luckily, you're not normal, Dom.. You're a different breed - literally the best damn Data and Analytics PM I've ever worked-with, and I've been doing this for a bit. So remember, the really good ones like you don't come on the market often. When they do, it takes a little longer to make a fit because y'all are on a completely different level and not for everyone. The right gig will find you, in the meantime, positive karma coming your way!
