Play Games
Instead of brute forcing yourself to work hard, make your job hunt a series of little games:
- Could you reach out to someone on LinkedIn 3 days in a row?
- How about you blog daily for 7 days?
- How funny could you make your follow up emails?
- What if you pitched the company that's "out of your league," just for fun?
- Why not play guitar in your pitch video?
Lighten up. If you fail, it's only a game!
(But you might actually get better results).
