One of the most powerful concepts I’ve learned since I lost my job is that it’s more powerful to substantiate yourself (and your claims) than to just say what your claims are.
Show, not tell.
I wrote about this here: Substantiate Yourself
My first real job offer was after I started JibberJobber. No interview, no application, just an OFFER.
Check out William Arruda’s blog post: Don’t Tell People Who You Are, Show Them What You Are About
I love this line:
“As you can imagine, I am now her biggest supporter. She sits at the top of my list of coaches I recommend to my clients.”
This is so powerful.
What are you doing to back up your claims (said differently, how are you substantiating yourself)?
That’s such a great story.
