Foreword
“It’s not just about how to find a job, it’s about how to live your life.”
So said one grateful person who found the best job he ever had by following the advice in this book.
However, I must caution readers that some others have found this advice to be quite ‘tough minded’ and in terms of applying it to their daily lives it might be a bit too tough for some. But I am not trying to convince you to live your life this way, only to find the job you want this way.
In writing this book I used a format and style similar to that of a best seller written several years ago (and if you ‘google’ it today you will see it is still very popular). That book was “Up The Organization” by Robert Townsend.
Townsend’s book was given to me by a friend when I started my first civilian job after serving as a young infantry officer. He was aware that I knew nothing about business and he thought it would help me make the transition from the army to civilian life. It turned out to be one of the best gifts I ever received because the way the Contents was designed I was able to get help very quickly every time I needed it.
I hope this works equally well for you during your job search because this book is not just meant to help you find the job you want but to help you do it very quickly.
