Job Search: Success of Failure is a Matter of Choice

I designed the Extreme Job Search program so that individuals with the highest level of commitment will achieve the greatest success. This is precisely what The Black Hole does not offer.

That said, not everyone is comfortable with my system. I've seen this situation many times in the past. Students of my program with all best intentions, step themselves through some orientation material, get off to a reasonably good start - then pull back when they realize that the full burden of "working the program" rests on their shoulders alone.

But most students find the experience challenging, energizing, and inspirational. They like the idea that their next job (or client) is right around the corner. They like the feeling of being in control of all decisions and actively managing different aspects of their career "enterprise" to achieve success. And they especially like the freedom that comes from knowing they are no longer shackled to The Black Hole.

One message I want to be especially clear about is this: In the late 20th century (generally the early 1990s), the employer/employee model under which most of us labored convinced us that we would always have a position as long as we worked hard and performed at or above expectations.

That model no longer exists. Now it's up to individual "CEO" to direct the business functions of their own careers, e.g., "R & D" (networking and market intelligence), "Sales & Marketing" (resume and interviewing), etc... in order to secure a viable niche in the business landscape of the 21st century.

For better or worse, you are and will be engaged in an uncomfortably tight race for employment survival in the decades to come. My program lays out the rules for that race and asserts that your only real chance of winning is to boldly leave old-style job search thinking in the dust. I firmly believe that my Extreme Job Search System "the 7- Steps" is the best single defense against any extended periods of transition and the needless suffering endured by you and your family as a result.

I will see you on the radio this Sunday morning at 8am (EST) with Motivational Speaker and Author, Abby Kohut on “101 Job Search Secrets” on Your Career Is Calling on 107.7 FM and online on www.1077TheBronc.com. I look forward to taking your calls at 877.900.1077.

Best wishes and keep networking alive,

Rod Colon
