Attitude

Today, I happened to watch a short video of Denzel Washington's speech about the factors for success, and it resonated with me. I think that’s exactly what I want to share with you regarding your job search. The key principles he shared can directly apply to your journey as well.

Here are the points he highlighted in his speech:

• Hard work – Don’t believe in luck; believe in hard work.

• Patience – If you are losing patience, then you are losing the battle.

• Sacrifice – If you don't sacrifice for what you want, then what you want becomes the sacrifice.

• Consistency – Consistency is what transforms average into excellence.

• Discipline – Motivation gets you going, and discipline keeps you growing.

• Self-confidence – Confidence is not like they will like me, Confidence is I will be fine if they don't like me,

• Positive attitude – A positive attitude won't solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Focus on your goals, not on your obstacles.

I also discovered that YouTube has many of his speeches, and I never realized what an incredible speaker he is! When you’re feeling low or frustrated by the long process, I recommend watching some of his motivational speeches.

Take a break when you need it, and then keep moving forward. If you continue working hard and staying committed, I truly believe you will be successful!

I couldn't find his exact speech on YouTube, but I did come across some of his other speeches, which are equally inspiring.
