How job searching in this job market feels 🫠

which one resonates with you the most?

1. We rewaited until marriage. It was difficult at the start; until we did a Bible study on purity together, it made it crystal clear that it was the right thing for us

2. We got engaged in 4 months, then married 3 months later. Some say it was quick but we’re 36 and 37 y/o & know our values

3. We’ve both had multiple failed relationships in our past… but we are grateful that each one led us closer to eachother 🤍

4. We started long distance - 4,200 miles apart, to be exact. We met face to face after 2 months

5. We eloped and didn’t tell any friends about our wedding. We had five family members at the beach wedding in Florida and will have a bigger celebration at another point.

6. We still can’t believe we are married 😂 in the best way possible!!!! GOD IS GOOD.

the Bible says these 5 things happen when you have a spouse 👇

1. You become stronger together
“Two are better than one… If either falls, one can help the other up.” — Ecclesiastes 4:9–10

2. You grow through refinement
“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” — Proverbs 27:17

3. You learn sacrificial love
“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church.” — Ephesians 5:25

4. You receive wisdom in unity
“The two will become one flesh.” — Genesis 2:24

5. You reflect God’s design for partnership
“It is not good for the man to be alone.” — Genesis 2:18

Marriage calls you higher.
Not just happier.

Two years from now, you’ll wish you started today.

• The time will pass anyway.
• The question is who you become in that time.

Most people stop when progress feels slow.
Results show up for people who keep going.

One habit at a time.
One decision at a time.
One day at a time.

No giant leap needed.
Just refuse to quit.

So ask yourself:

Where could you be in 2 years if you stayed consistent starting now?

I was living the ‘dream’ but felt like I was drowning.
Even as a kid, something about working until 65 then finally living felt wrong….
But I did it anyway because I didn’t know there was another option.

The pandemic started my wake-up call, but I still couldn’t break free from my habits.

Then one book changed everything - ‘Becoming Supernatural’ by Dr. Joe Dispenza.

I learned I wasn’t stuck because of life - I was stuck because of ME.

What happened next:
→ Moved cities
→ Got sober
→ Found God
→ Got baptized
→ Got married

It hasn’t been perfect, but it’s been exactly what God knew I needed.

Hot take: convince yourself to be grateful for every rejection email. It stops hurting, and you become happier knowing that every rejection is a step closer to that dream job (from someone who spent *21 months* between jobs)

The simple trick to seeing more job opportunities each day 🧠

Let’s start with your brain - it is already filtering out most of what’s happening around you.

It’s called the Reticular Activating System (RAS).
The RAS is a filter in your brainstem that decides what information reaches your conscious mind.

You’re exposed to millions of bits of data every second… but you can only consciously process about 40.
The RAS filters based on what it believes is important to you.

Ever think about buying a specific car… and then start seeing it everywhere?
That’s your RAS at work.



Now imagine you’re constantly thinking:
❌ “I’m not good enough.”
❌ “There are no jobs out there.”
❌ “No one’s hiring.”

Guess what your RAS starts filtering for?
More of the same - stress, rejection, closed doors.

But when you start shifting your focus toward:
✅ “I’m open to new opportunities.”
✅ “I’m ready for the right role.”
✅ “I’m capable and confident.”

Your RAS starts pulling in evidence to support that.

It starts showing you the things you were missing;
opportunities, new leads, unexpected connections.



💡 Here’s how to train your RAS daily (takes less than 1 minute):

1. Set a clear intention:
“I’m attracting the right role for me.”
2. Visualize success:
Picture the job, the team, the feeling of getting the offer…..
3. Feel the emotions:
Confidence. Gratitude. Peace.



Your brain becomes a magnet for what you believe is possible.
Train it wisely.

🔁 Rewire your focus.
🔍 Spot what others miss.
💼 Land what’s meant for you.
