In this economy, unfortunately we hear all too often of
job losses. Today, I'd like to share a success story
with you.
Last week, Brenda told us about a job she wanted. She
wrote:
"It is exactly what I have been looking for. It
deals with working with clients (veterans) and
assisting them in applying for veterans programs and
services/benefits that they may be eligible for.
"It also deals with public relations in letting people
what services the Veterans Affairs department offers."
Today Brenda tells us, "I start in two weeks. Thank
you for the ideas and advice!"
Please join with me in congratulating Brenda Henige on
the successful completion of her job search.
Brenda, we all wish you the best of luck! You have
worked hard and we are all delighted to learn about
your success.
If you have a success story of your own, we would
like to hear about it. Please e-mail us about it at
MemberServices@eSight.org and remember to include your
phone number, so we can call you for further
information, if needed.
I'd like to offer some advice from an old friend who
has contributed significantly over the years to the
success of eSight. Fernando Botelho has often said:
"Success and solutions to problems are
often not simple. However, the attitude you need to
succeed is simple. Just be positive and persistent and
follow your dreams. Do what it is you want to do -- do
what makes you happy."
Please consider the issues Brenda now faces as she prepares
for her new job, and then reply to this question:
What tip do you have to offer to Brenda (or anyone else),
who is beginning to work at a new job?
Please post your advice for Brenda at
