The Test; what a lot of people seem to "fail" at

Note: This is a two-part series. You can read part one here.

You have the ability and option to stand out. Right now, the economy is still not good. This is actually a “test” for people and I thought about it tonight at work. Some don’t realize how big the “test” really is.

What are you passionate about? What are your goals? What drives you? What wakes you up in the morning? What keeps you up at night from being able to contently close your eyes? What feeds your soul? What attracts other people to you?

Pause.

Re-read that last question. Well, go on! :)

Unfortunately, I’m writing this from a creative perspective. Huh. That might not be such a good thing for you though. Or it is? Did you take art class or band or theater or architecture 101? No? That doesn’t mean you’re not creative by any means. Everyone is creative, you just have your own ideas of what is creativity. There is no law telling you what the definition of being creative is. Ever thought about that?

If you want the job bad enough, show it. Prove it. Live it. Become the job. But don’t get cocky and don’t just stand there and try looking good regardless to whether or not you have natural beauty. Have a brain? Use it. It’s actually sexy and appealing.

Take life by the reigns, put your own words into actions and a terrible thing happens: no one else to blame. It's your life. As Switchfoot would say, become who you are. It happens once in a life time.
