I've been on a rollercoaster of job applications, interviews, and even one job offer (which I declined) since the summer. The irons I've had in the fire have left only dim embers at this stage and it's been hard to stay encouraged in my search. I've really been questioning whether or not I'm on the right path, trying to get an account manager or customer success manager role at a different company. And so I decided to shift my approach to one of gratitude and appreciation. I'm looking at my current employer and finding things to appreciate that I didn't see before. I go to bed at night, thankful for my talented colleagues who are also lovely humans and a pleasure to work with. I give thanks for the positive relationships I have with my clients, and how we work well together to build mutual trust and therefore increase the potential of what we can accomplish together. And I'm grateful for my desire and aptitude to learn new things. It's making me happier where I am, and making me more relaxed about the search process in general. I think I will choose to use this next little bit of time to continue appreciating and finding things to get curious about and learn, which will no doubt lead me to the next leg of my job search journey. What are you grateful for in your own job search?
