成功求职者的五个秘密(1)

Completing a 26-mile marathon race shares some characteristics with a successful job search. 跑完26英里的马拉松赛跑和成功找到工作有一些相似之处。

There is one "winner" who crosses the finish line first. There are the many who quit before they've completed the race. Finally, there are the rest of us who don't finish first, but are determined to complete the race nevertheless. 这两者都是有一个“胜利者”会第一个穿过终点；有许多人中途退出；而其余的人并非第一个穿过终点，但还是决定完成比赛。

For most of us, half the battle is finishing the race, regardless of where we place among the finishers. The same goes for a job search. 对多数人来说，完成比赛就是成功的一半，不论最后是排在第几位。找工作也是如此。

有五个秘密诀窍能帮你在求职中更好地获得成功。

1. Visualize 想象自己实现了目标

Marathon runners and other goal-directed athletes are great at visualization. They set a goal and see themselves achieving it. The same applies for your job search. Set a goal and see yourself achieving it. No matter how many setbacks you have, hold that vision of the job you want. Continue to hold it. 马拉松选手和其他以实现目标为目的的运动员非常擅长于想象。他们会设定一个目标，想象自己实现了。找工作也是一样。设定一个目标，想想自己实现了它。不论遇到多少挫折，都对你所希望的工作抱有憧憬，并不断憧憬它。

Focus on the outcome you want, and not on how you're going to achieve it. Picture it in your mind. Be specific. What is your supervisor like? How about your co-workers? What is your workspace like? What hours do you work? Including your right brain in the imagination and visualization process enhances the achievement of your goal. 去关注结果，而不是实现目标的过程。在脑海中想象，让勾画的图像清晰明确。你的上级会是什么样？你的同事们会是什么样？办公环境会是什么样？工作时间多长？在想象和视觉化的过程中用右脑思考会有助实现目标。(to be continued)
