--Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
The Power of Positive Thinking--it is a book we have all heard about. Dr. Norman Vincent Peale is the author of that book and is a progenitor of the idea of thinking positive. He was also a minister and public speaker during his life as well as an Ohio native.
This is an example of my skills as a Lighting Director! I interviewed with a local company that does everything-- lights, video, graphic design, and full event planning! |
As a recent grad still on the job hunt, I am constantly telling myself that by not being hired as a result of any previous interviews is really a good thing! I'm just still waiting to find the job that will best complement the skills I have thus far attained. By being positive about the situation, I am not giving myself an opportunity to feel let down.
This more suggestive still is another example I brought. Good (left) was meant to change throughout this short into nothing better than Evil (right). |
The way I see it, if I am meant to fail, I will. On the other hand, if I believe in myself and take the appropriate actions toward finding the right job, I will be able to find the perfect fit; time is the only question. I don't think I am going to fail myself in my job search, so I will not be able to fail.
Knowing I had an interview today, I told myself that it would go well. With this mindset, I was able to maintain a confident attitude. I believe the experience was extremely positive. Also, knowing that I was not interviewing for a specific job took away the nerves :)
"Watch your manner of speech if you wish to develop a peaceful state of mind. Start each day by affirming peaceful, contented and happy attitudes and your days will tend to be pleasant and successful."
--Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
