I'm working on a tough project today, one that needs a great deal of effort and a lot of sweat equity. I've got my bluetooth speaker cranked up, and it struck me that we all have music that means something to us when we're working on something important. What I'm doing today is not unlike the effort you need to make in finding a job. So tell me, what would get you invigorated and ready to face those elements of distraction and negativity? What's the music of YOUR job search soundtrack?
Mine is Tom Petty's "Won't Back Down." Here's a sample of the lyrics. [Note: Must be played loud].
Well, I won't back down
No, I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of hell
But I won't back down
No, I'll stand my ground
Won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down
(I won't back down)
Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out
(I won't back down)
Hey, I will stand my ground
And I won't back down
Well I know what's right
I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
But I'll stand my ground
