So I know a lot of you don't know me, but I have a big week this week and I guess I need a little encouragement cuz I'm really nervous. I graduated in May and have been looking for a job since. I have a huge interview today that I am terrified for cuz I really want the job! I also have an interview tomorrow and then I take part of my CPA exam on Wednesday. I'm really scared about my exam too, but I have been studying for a month so I know more than I believe I do. I don't have a lot of self-confidence so please wish me luck with everything this week or share some encouraging words if you have a second. Thanks in advance

BTW I hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

Yea, I know how difficult school can be, especially with a mental illness. Taking exams are very stressful for me also. with the cost of a course and all. I hope you can get the job your trained for. If not, life goes on. I don't think people should sweat the small stuff. That is just me though. Good luck, I hope to hear good news!
Thanks for this!

I wish you good luck with your interview and from now until then take time out to meditate and give yourself positive energy, know that you are entiled to be more positive about yourself.

Just keep in mind that being a bit nervous about any interview is really normal for everyone. Just give yourself REAL permission to relax and NOT add to your NORMAL sense of being a bit nervous. Remember to smile at whoever is interviewing you, the act of smiling itself brings a natural release in stress.

Thanks for this!

ok...you have been studying. you know your stuff. you got that part covered.

here's what you need to do.
today: lay out your clothes for the next day...everything...lay out everything you need to bring. pack our bag.

once that is done...go DO SOMETHING FUN. preferably something that will wear you down...take a hike, go to a museum, etc...something physical...go to the zoo..i love the zoo...but DO IT. enjoy it..forget the job.

tonight..eat a good dinner. take a warm bath.

tomorrow eat a good breakfast...something with protein...gives you the fuel you need.

look you know your stuff...you know it, i know it..you got that aprt covered..now all you have to do is relax, so that your confidence shines thru...if the company didn't think you knew it they wouldn't waste their time on you...really...

oh & don't forget the lucky underwear...becaUSE no matter what that always helps too.

good luck!
Thanks for this!
