Anyone who has experienced the ups and downs of a job search can say with certainty that your mindset (what you think, feel, and act on) becomes very volatile during the process. Add on to that a big change like moving into a new industry, and you’ll be confronted with a fear of the unknown, that can almost be immobilizing.
Yet the anxiety created during a job search can be minimized through the act of reframing certain beliefs about yourself and the world. Through a ‘reframe’ you can start to shift your perspective, which dilutes any fear of the unknown until it slowly goes away with time.
One of the most helpful reframes is “People want to help me”.
This statement can led the way for your efforts in networking, reaching out to friends and coworkers and generally help you feel safer when asking for support of people you just met on Linkedin. The truth is, most people are open to supporting you - lean into that belief to make the job search work in your favor.
