[00:03.87]1996 Passage1 [00:11.67]Tight-lipped elders used to say, [00:14.49]"It's not what you want in this world, but what you get.” [00:19.13]Psychology teaches that you do get what you want [00:22.86]if you know what you want and want the right things. [00:27.60]You can make a mental blueprint of a desire [00:31.07]as you would make a blueprint of a house, [00:34.00]and each of us is continually making these blueprints [00:37.63]in the general routine of everyday living. [00:41.46]If we intend to have friends to dinner, [00:44.10]we plan the menu, make a shopping list, [00:47.73]decide which food to cook first, [00:50.15]and such planning is an essential [00:52.16]for any type of meal to be served. [00:55.69]Likewise, if you want to find a job, [00:58.99]take a sheet of paper, [01:00.41]and write a brief account of yourself. [01:03.53]In making a blueprint for a job, [01:05.90]begin with yourself, [01:07.61]for when you know exactly what you have to offer, [01:10.73]you can intelligently plan where to sell your services. [01:15.17]This account of yourself is actually a sketch of [01:18.70]your working life and should include education, [01:22.83]experience and references. [01:25.85]Such an account is valuable. [01:28.17]It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks [01:32.62]and is extremely helpful in personal interviews. [01:36.85]While talking to you, [01:38.25]your could-be employer is deciding [01:40.99]whether your education, you experience, [01:43.70]and other qualifications will pay him to employ you [01:47.84]and your "wares" and abilities must be displayed [01:50.77]in an orderly and reasonably connected manner. [01:55.00]When you have carefully prepared a blueprint [01:57.11]of your abilities and desires, [01:59.53]you have something tangible to sell. [02:02.55]Then you are ready to hunt for a job. [02:05.68]Get all the possible information about your could-be job. [02:09.92]Make inquiries as to the details regarding the job [02:13.42]and the firm. [02:15.49]Keep your eyes and ears open, [02:17.82]and use your own judgement. [02:20.04]Spend a certain amount of time each day [02:22.57]seeking the employment you wish for, [02:25.19]and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now.
