This week I made a bit of a headway with the job search. I had one interview which I think went okay. I'm not at all positive that I'll get the position. I've decided not to stress out about it. There is really nothing I can do to make it any easier to make my case to those who judge me on my appearance and verbal ability. I do get tired of feeling that I'm saying or doing the wrong thing. So, I stop and study the person before me. What are her needs? I know that she's just as frustrated as I am to find the right "fit" for her organization. I know that I have a lot of stiff competition that I can't hope to beat out for the position. I know my weaknesses and my strengths. I know what I can do and what I can't do. I know my limitations.
Yet I can't seem to make the right connections. I know that there has to be one organization/company that is searching right now for me. I do pray that we make the connection soon. One of my intense pressures right now is seeing my funds dwindle down to nothing and not being able to do anything about it. I need help.
On the other hand, I do see growth in the area that I'm passionate about which is historical research. It is exciting to see the positive response to my efforts on behalf on my community. I do believe that the event that my historical society is holding will have a great impact on the community. That's a good thing. Will I personally see any monetary gain with this? No...probably not...unless someone sees my good work and wants to hire me. It could happen.
