One Step at a Time: The Power of Determination in Your Job Search

The power of determination is what bridges the gap between where you are now and where you hope to go. For job seekers, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, especially when the road is filled with unanswered applications, ghosted interviews, or self-doubt. But here’s the truth: showing up, again and again, is what creates momentum.

It’s not about perfection, it’s about persistence. You don’t need to have it all figured out. What matters most is what you do next: update that resume, send that message, apply for that opportunity, ask for the informational interview. These actions, rooted in determination, are what move you forward.

Let this week be a reminder that determination doesn’t mean never feeling stuck, it means not letting that feeling stop you.
