I've been emailing and faxing resumes in response to job ads all day today. My buns are numb. And, I have almost overwhelming urges to continually get up and go get snacks.
It's a bit aggravating to me how much "teeth gnashing" I go through during this process. I find a listing and copy it to a list I'm keeping of jobs to apply for. Then, I go back to that list and highlight the job openings that still strike me as possible/desirable. THEN, I get caught up in this warp or something - maybe it's all necessary - just psyching myself up to write the cover letter and send the damn thing off. Since last night, I've rewritten/formatted my resume - which is a good thing. Now, I have three versions to use for different openings...and, I've used each format today for different postings.
Then again, this can all tend to feel like busy work.
I keep reminding myself to stay open, be patient. Ultimately, I do have faith that whatever needs to happen is happening.
So, why is it SO tempting to crawl under the covers to try to turn off my buzzing mind? Arrgg!
