Of the dozen or so ways to find a job, which ones do you think are the most successful? Would you be surprised to learn that the ways most people use to find their jobs are actually the least effective? The reason is because they are relying on the old standards: classified ads, job fairs and mailing resumes to employers. While those methods typically result in 5-7% of job candidates finding work, for the rest of the population, something else is going to be required.

In the feature film, True Grit, Marshall Rooster Cogburn (John Wayne) warns "Lucky" Ned Peffer (Robert Duvall) and three companions of their arrest. Cogburn on horseback faces the four horseman across a clearing. Cogburn tells Peffer that he intends to kill him within seconds or see him hang. Peffer responds, "That's bold talk for a one-eyed fat man." After a flurry of gunfire only Cogburn is alive. The moral? Never underestimate people with disabilities.

What was the secret? Talking it over with her coach, she saw that her topic, and this particular audience, was precisely in line with her vision of her purpose, the reply to why Im here. She had been true to her professional mission statement. The experience of being aligned in this way apparently left no room for self-consciousness or fear of rejection.
