Get a Notebook, Do 1 Thing a Day

You don’t need motivation, you need momentum.

So here’s a tip, get a notebook. Then, every day before you go to bed, write down what task(s) you completed that day towards winning a job.

Do at least 1 thing a day. This is called a Non-Zero Day. This is especially helpful if your job hunt is a side hustle right now, and you’re busy.

Now take 5 minutes for this video on Non-Zero Days. Don’t skip this one. Really, it could change everything for you.
