Welcome to Brazen Careerist!

People are finding the awesomeness in Gen-Y'ers! Check out this awesome opportunity for a lucky lady to star in a TV series. (Based in Philadelphia). You're welcome. ;-) http://www.katieblogs.com/p/casting-call-for-philadelphia-ladies.html

I for one am always waiting for the "urge" to do things. When that urge doesn't come, things don't get done. Sometimes, you just have to ....just do it. Get started. Get inspired. Sometimes the inspiration won't find you, you have to find IT. Go to a park, people watch. Hit the local coffee shop and try a new blend. If things aren't creatively coming to you, try to switch things up. Hell, it's worth a shot, right?

Working from home, as awesome as it is, breeds bad habits. How easy is it for you to up and decide to watch something on TV in the middle of the day? How easy is it for you to decide to clean something mid say? If you have the dedication to work 8 straight hours each day, then go with it, but don't feel bad if you have a hard time doing it. Look into renting an office space. You can also vent your frustration out on the non-working copy machine with a baseball bat.

In conversations, always always always ask questions of the other person. Talk about yourself where appropriate, but don't abuse the privilege. Ask interesting questions; "What are you planning on doing this weekend?" "What movies have you seen recently?" Make it interesting. Make it sound like you're interested. BE interested. If you're not interested, the think; "Why am I having this conversation to begin with?"
