How To Find the Perfect Job For You

Hello, hello--hello!

Well, I hope you all enjoyed the Forth of July last week, and I also hope that you got the message that was in my blog last week.  You got it?  Good!  Let's hope we all get it and turn this country around, for the better!

I went to the movies the other day, it was very cool, the air-conditioned theater and Icee I mean (the movie wasn't half bad either).  When we left the theater, we ran into one of our friends, who is a little older than we are, having just recently graduated from college. This friend was awful down hearted, because she hasn't yet found a job.  So I asked, "What job?
  I really don't think there's anything out there, other than foodservice jobs."  She told me she's beginning to think I was right, because practically everyone else who graduated along with her hasn't found anything either, and they've been looking for years.  I asked her, "Why don't you make your own career, by starting your own business?  I hear that's what a lot of people are doing now days, especially recent college grads."  She told me that that wasn't a bad idea, since her grandmother started her own business after she retired.  Her grandmother's biggest passion was cooking, so she decided to start her own business by making cakes, pies, and cookies and selling them online.  Today, her grandmother has a successful catering business specializing in parties and repasts.  So I said,  "See?  There you go!  Your grandmother made a business out of what she loves to do!  Now, tell me, what do you love to do?"  She told me that she is very good at arts and crafts, and making little gifts and knack-knacks for her friends and loved ones, but her greatest passion is to become a stand-up comedienne.  I said,  "Okay, here's what you do.  Make making gift items your primary career, and make stand up comedy you secondary career.  That was, if the comedy career doesn't pan out, you still got your gift making career to fall back on."  She thought that was a wonderful idea, and she's going to follow it through full throttle. 

And now, my dear friends, the same advice I gave to my friend, I'm giving to you.  I know how tough it is out there to find a job, and sometimes, the best way to get a job is to make your own.  When life throws lemons at you, you gotta make lemonade, and, when life doesn't give you a job, sometimes you have to make your own job.  That's what Famous Amos, Mrs. Fields, and Cabbage Patch Kid creator Xavier Roberts did, and look what they became.  Perhaps turning your life's passion into a career can work for you too. Try it and see.  good luck and God bless.

Well, that's all the time we have for this week.  Until next time, be well, stay well, and remember to help the disaster survivors!

Sincerely,




Marley Sue
