Depression Clouds Everything

Depression Clouds Everything A bit of a ramble about a serious topic something that Ive been wanting to write about for a while but not quite sure how to write about it. I dont consider myself emotionally unhealthy. In fact, with the exception of dealing with a big car accident when I was 17, I feel like Ive either been in control of my life, or very comfortable with what has happening. I dont think that I have suffered from anxiety or depression or similar things, although Im close to people who have and know that its real and serious. I have a high locus of control, which means I believe I have a significant impact on things that happen to me (career success, family success, etc.). But, when I started my job search there were two major things going on. First, I was managing and coordinating all of the logistics that go into a job search. There are a ton from getting a resume together to getting it out, prepping for interviews, dressing right, networking, researching, etc. These are all mechanical things, things that you can get coached on from the do these 10 things and youll land a job lists. In fact, they are so mechanical that you can easily define what needs to be done, how to do it, and figure out what tweaks are required because of your needs. You can come up with checklists and plans, and its all good or it would seem to be all good. This is all good news for someone with a high locus of control. The second thing that was happening all of the emotional stuff happening. You see, I was on top of the world I was the general manager of my company, on the board of directors, accomplished in school and feeling pretty good about myself. And then I became a job seeker. This is the person that wont get a call back, or an e-mail reply, from anyone. The job seeker is the person who tries to get interviews so that you can see just how great they are, and what value theyll bring to your company but they get nowhere. The job seeker is the guy who lost an income, but still has bills to pay. When I first lost my job I remember reading an article on MSN it was about a guy in Korea that lost his job, went to the zoo, entered an animals area, and climbed a tree and wouldnt come down. Can you imagine what it takes for a professional to end up in a tree at the zoo, and then on international news? At least, I thought, Im not there. But day after day, the rejection, the self-doubt, all the bad stuff that happens when your world is turned upside down, the emotions where clouding things. Judgment was clouded, because I was desperate. Performance was clouded because I was scared. I certainly wasnt used to dealing with these emotions, especially week after week. It was also somewhat depressing to go to network meetings with professionals in transition who were going through similar things. I was pretty amazed that I met people who were in the same laid-off boat I was, who were much more accomplished than me. Would this never end?? I didnt want to be in this situation regularly! I dealt with it (by ignoring it). But I knew that others werent dealing with it there. A few weeks ago I was at lunch with a good friend that I met during my job search. He had a very similar story to mine, a fast-paced career, good money, big titles and responsibility, and then he got cut out because of lame corporate politics. We got on the subject of emotions, and I said that this was the most surprising aspect of a job search for me, and I asked him if he dealt with negative emotions. Since I had met him I knew him to be composed I didnt imagine that he dealt with them. His reply was shocking: Jason, it got to the point where I asked myself if it was the wrists or the neck. For those of you who havent been jobless yet, thinking that you give 110% to your company and theyll take care of you, mark my words, the emotional aspect of a job search, no matter what your locus of control is, may be the most surprising, derailing thing you have to deal with in your job search. Im not sure if Ill get comments on this post or not but it is a serious issue. If you have anything you feel comfortable sharing, leave a comment.

Personal Branding Weekly - There is No Box - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career

Personal Branding Weekly - There is No Box - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career “Think out of the box” seemed to be the mantra for an entire decade. What if you approached this a bit differently and realized that there is no box? The only boxes are often the ones we create ourselves. Often, we supply the hammer and nails to create “this box”. When the book “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” came out, there was a discussion about the roles that we all play and even the 7 Habits planner later came out with a planning system highlighting the goals we wanted to achieve in each of our roles. While the roles and the focus for each of those roles may differ, the commonality between all the roles is that it’s the same person, personally and professionally, who is taking on that role. Unbox Your Connections When you have a variety of connections that can be helpful to others, you are in a perfect position to be a “hub” of resources to your connections. Stop separating your resources by roles.   A great event planner at your church could be a stellar connection for customer in need of some ideas or connections on planning an “open house” event for their business. A great volunteer you connect with at a non-profit who knows all the ins and outs of a word processing software, could be a great resource or even trainer to your team members (or connections) on knowing all the shortcuts in using this software. Reach across the many roles you play in your life from PTA parent to member of the board of directors â€" bringing people together across a variety of roles is a valuable skillset. Have You Boxed in Your Personal Brand? When I find people who have boxed themselves into a title or role, I often coach them through understanding that within all these roles, they have the same niche. Niche is what you do ever so well. Your niche may be that you are awesome at presenting. If you’re presenting to a board of directors or to parents who are helping put together a field trip for their children, your niche could be that you’re excellent at presenting, facts and figures, in a way that is meaningful to the listener, as well as motivating others to become involved. Niche = What you do ever so well Target Market = Who you do it to In your roles, you have the same niche yet the target market changes for each role.

Just the Monday blues or something more serious University of Manchester Careers Blog

Just the Monday blues or something more serious University of Manchester Careers Blog Its Monday. Its dark, gloomy and raining. No-one expects you to be bright and perky on a day like today but what if its not simply that I dont like Mondays feeling? Doing a postgraduate degree is always challenging, but sometimes life continues to pile on the pressure, until the cracks start to show. The start of a new academic year can sometimes trigger that feeling that something is about to give, but there are things you can do to make it easier to cope with whatever your postgrad programme, and life, are throwing at you. Here are a few pointers to help keep you afloat. Should I stay or should I go? Help if youre wondering whether to give up your postgrad programme. Managing a disability Support while on your programme, plus some inspiration for those students with a disability who want an academic career. Looking after yourself: Positive mental health and postgraduates Includes a great new blog from a postgrad with some practical (and entertaining) advice on dealing with mental health issues 1. Should I stay or should I go? If you think you may have done the wrong thing, starting your postgrad degree, or cant face the prospect of another year, dont just sit and worry on your own. Talk to someone, preferably someone without a vested interest in keeping you on your postgrad programme. Sometimes, the best person to talk to is your supervisor or programme leader, but if youre not ready to do that yet, get some alternative perspectives on your concerns: The Careers Service we can listen, help you think through the possible outcomes, whether you stay or go, and help you look at the alternatives, particularly in terms of career prospects. Contact us through our normal appointment service, just letting us know at the time of booking what you want to cover. Just be reassured you wont be the first person (or even the first person this week) who wants to talk about whether your course is right for you. The Students Union their Advice Services include professional advisers and student-to-student support such as Nightline. Your School seek out other sounding boards in your School. This may be one of your lecturers, an academic adviser (other than your supervisor if youre doing a PhD), a student support officer (different systems and roles operate in different Schools) or simply other postgrads, post-docs or sympathetic academics or support staff you feel you could talk to. If you dont want to talk to someone (yet), have a look at our postgrad careers guide, How to recover from setbacks for some tips on finding support, plus links to our resources for doctoral researchers (by year) with some interesting information and resources on Imposter Syndrome, a seemingly common phenomenon in academic circles. If things have gone beyond worrying about some of the practicalities surrounding your postgrad programme, and are starting to affect you more personally, our Counselling Service has a wide range of one-to-one, group and online resources to help do use them, thats what theyre there for. 2. Managing a disability Our Disability Support Office has a strong track record in supporting students with a wide range of disabilities, whether visible or hidden. If you are concerned about the impact any disability may have on your career plans, then you can book a careers appointment like anyone else but if you mention that you wish to discuss a disability issue, well make sure that you get to talk to the right person and that you have sufficient time and space to discuss your issues. Will it damage your career prospects?Having a disability doesnt mean that you should write off your career ambitions. In some cases you might need to go about things a bit differently, but that can also be positive. For example, Dr Judy Williams, a senior lecturer in the Medical School has recently written an article in the Guardian about the challenges of being an academic with dyslexia, and how shes made it work to her advantage. If youve been on one of her training courses, you probably didnt realise that her amazing responsive and interactive training style is a way of really playing to her strengths and minimizing the impact of her disability. 3. Looking after yourself: Positive mental health and postgraduates Our Counselling Service has lots of self-help resources and one-to-one support to help you keep your mental health on an even keel while you do a postgraduate degree.   However, it is also useful to hear from other postgrads, at the very least to realise that youre not alone. I dont have any data on how many postgraduates have to deal with mental health issues during their postgraduate degree, but I was struck by a point made recently in a new PhD blog, An Academic Follower of Fashion. Jessica MacDonald, a current Glasgow University PhD student who also experiences depression, came up with a great quote: Research has shown that mental illness, particularly mood disorders such as depression, may be more common in highly intelligent and creative people and those who would identify as perfectionists. Intelligent, creative perfectionists. Sounds like a lot of PhD students I know. Its a very new blog, so I dont know how regularly it will be updated, but shes started out in tremendous form. If youve struggled to talk to your supervisor about mental health issues affecting your progress, Id urge you to read her post, Having the chat with your supervisor.

It Is Going to Take More Than A Slick Resume

It Is Going to Take More Than A Slick Resume What else will you need to stay marketable in the future? Thats fun to think about. The resume is so static and employers dont even really like looking at them. Thats why LinkedIn is so helpful to employers. It allows them to see who you are more fully. Of course they only want to find people who will fit in their company and who have the talent they think they are looking for. Once part of LinkedIn, join groups, comment, share information and get recommendations! Dont stop there. Have you googled yourself? What comes up? Anything? What can you do to change this? Comment on blogs- add your expertise (carefully of course). If you want, you could start blogging. Do you have a website? A domain with your name? This can also make you easier to find. What would you put on your website? LinkedIn profile link, resume, sample work, links to articles youve written or presentations youve made, links to articles written about your work. Video of you in action. There are tons of options. Louise Fletcher at Blue Sky Resumes posted this over the top, yet funny post related to this. As technology changes, we also need to think about how we need to change with it to maximize our self-promotion.
