#JobSearch #Friday ARE YOU OVER 50 AND SEARCHING FOR A NEW POSITION? “Hang on With Your Toes!” Is Step Two
Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you may be correct in your views but you are being harangued by someone who disagreed with you? Doesn’t it feel like your back is to the cliff with a 1,000 foot drop behind you? What are you doing? Hanging on with your toes!
How Does Hanging On With My Toes Help Me?
Great question! Hanging on with your toes buys you time to decide your next safe action. You are demonstrating Resilience.
Resilience and belief in your skills and abilities are very important in this stage of your search. The world may seem to be crashing around you but your resilience keeps you focused on the next step of your Career Search.
Have You Completed The Homework from Step One?
- Develop Stories demonstrating your Skills, Attributes, and Experience from your lists in Step One. Remember to use the 4 Ws when creating your stories!
- Develop a list with a minimum of 500 names of people that you know – Family (sometimes, that will give you 100 names), Friends, College, High School, Former Coworkers, Recent Coworkers, People from your social communities (softball, bowling, church, etc.)
- Maintain a Positive Mental Attitude.

How many other Career Coaches have written 94 consecutive weeks of #JobSearch #Friday Thought Leadership Blogs and THREE Career Search Books? All of you are on my mind!
My most recent book discusses the 4 different areas of Science that impact your search. You have the power to control the Science for your Benefit. Expect Success! The Science Of The Over 50 Career Search.
You can do this!
Networking is the best practice to find a new career! I wrote my books to duplicate my efforts to assist you in your search. My expert experience as both a Recruiter and Career Coach gives me a perspective few professionals have. My Salary Negotiation script solves that pain point for most career seekers.
My third book on Finding A New Career – Expect Success! The Science Of The Over 50 Career Search Is NOW at Dolly’s Bookstore in Park City, UT, Weller Book Works in Salt Lake City AND Amazon https://amzn.to/3rVVRAe and Barnes & Noble https://bit.ly/3ABu8c5 ! This book is written to coach Career Seekers 50 and older to identify and land your next position. All three of my books include stories of professionals, like you, who found success in different aspects of their search. This is Mark Victor Hansen’s (“Chicken Soup For The Soul”) endorsement of my book and me – “You get what you expect in life. It’s true scientifically and theologically. Bill Humbert now shares irresistibly compelling insights on how to use it to achieve every good thing you want.” MVH
To take charge of your career, please immediately click on this link to my second book, Employee 5.0: Secrets Of A Successful Job Search In The New World Order – http://amzn.to/2D9w39f My book contains the 12 Steps to find a new career in a nice, orderly fashion that follows your sales process. According to a newspaper review, “It is refreshing to find an author who speaks With you and not At you!” It also has the stories of people who did well – and some who did not. You may learn from both sides.
If you feel the need for professional Career Coaching, my business has 3 different packages. I work closely with Professionals in all three packages. The primary difference is the time and personal requirements.
My Talent Attraction business model is to work with one company at a time and charge a flat monthly fee. This enables me to become part of a company’s team for short or long periods. Therefore, I know what is going on behind the curtain that candidates and authors outside of my field cannot see.
I am here to help you further each week. Feel free to click on Follow US and Share at the bottom of our blog.
See you on Fridays!
