I saw these quotes and feel very connected to the one from John F.

Kennedy. When you are job seeking have purpose and direction. In other words, go after what you want and not necessarily what you think you can get. I am a living testimony that you can get the job you want. I did some basic things like contacting a friend for a referral and stepping out on faith. But I did one more bold move - sent my resume to the president of the company where my job was posted. This was so not me but it worked. What do you want? Start in that direction and get that job.
