Reconnect with Your Inner Child

~~~~~~~~~~~~Think of Yourself as Being Creative~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you think of yourself as a creative person, you will begin to act in creative ways. Use this new perspective of yourself and act as if your work, chores, commute and duties are outlets for your creativity—and they will be!

I heard a great story of Edward Adamson, an English art therapist who asked a group of high school–aged children to look at a brick and write down as many things they could imagine the brick being used for. Some children had no problem, jotting, with ease, a hundred ideas. Other children struggled, so he asked those children to close their eyes and imagine they were eccentric artists known for their creative flair. Once they had an image of themselves as innovative, artsy people, he asked them to open their eyes and again look at the brick and write down all the things that the brick could become. This time, the children overflowed with ideas. The difference was they now saw themselves as "artists." !!!!!Now think outside the box!!!!!http://www.oprah.com

How Volunteering Can Help You Get A Job

By volunteering in your community, not only will you be helping out organizations in need, but you'll also expand your network, add something to your resume, and come in contact with loads of new people who will now want to help you.

And, of course, if you happen to want to work in the nonprofit sector, volunteering for a nonprofit that particularly interests you is a great way to get a foot in the door. You'll get to meet inside players and form relationships, get early leads on upcoming openings, and be able to demonstrate that you're reliable, talented, organized, efficient, skilled, and all the other things people look for in new hires.
