Good luck with the job hunt! Your blog reminds me of what my father always says that when your receive your first No, it natures way of determining who really wants to prize!
Please find Natalie's blog post below:
I gained two life long lessons from the reading this week. One was after calling someone for something you want and you don’t receive the response you like go face to face and talk to that person. Another lesson was when you are told “no” don’t take it as a failure but take it as a lesson.
I am now in search of a job and I have sent resumes after resumes but haven’t gotten any response from anyone. I now no that I am going to stop sending resumes but put on my suit and go to their office to talk to them face to face. Perhaps if they see the spark of interest that I have in wanting the job will persuade them to give me a chance and hire me. If I still get rejected that will only make me stronger. I am going to continue to keeping trying until I get the answer “yes”. In life we are easily to become discourage from things but it takes us being strong minded to continue to press on.
As I was working on this blog I heard the actress Raven Samone state that while she was trying to become successful she had been told “no” more than she was told “yes”. But look at her now, she is being presented awards for continuing to keep the spark of her dream and now one of the youngest producers, directors and actresses in today’s time. If she can do it I know that I can too, I just have to keep the spark and hope that it becomes contagious to others.
