The definition of insanity...

Tuesday, June 23, 2009 by Susan Kent
So we've all heard it by now - the definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over the same way and expect different results. Yet we all do it. 

So after running and doing weights for two years, I haven't seen much of a change in my physique in the last twelve months. But I had been doing the same thing, thinking eventually I'll see different results. Duh. Time to try something new.

So I went to an orienteering meet with a friend this weekend (pause while you all google 'orienteering'). I didn't have the right gear, so I had to invest some time to put toghether the assets I would need to succeed. Then asked my friend a MILLION questions about what to expect, so I would be mentally prepared. Finally, I showed up. Deep breath....

I loved it!  What a great workout, escpecially since I was so distracted by my self-preservation insticts to notice the stinging nettles and sweat in my eyes. You know, the thought of trying someting new is often far more fear-invoking than actually DOING something new.

So if you have blasted out 100 resumes with little to no success, are you going to continue a process that has not yielded the result you want, or will you spend the time to create your free online portfolio to improve your Indianapolis job search? And if it seems overwelming, ask us questions, a MILLION if you need to. We're hear to help you succeed (and I promise, no stinging nettles!).
