Dream Girl
“Where there is no vision, people perish….”

Do you ever dream or aspire to land that perfect job or accomplish a particular task?

Over the last four years, I watched someone dear to me not only land the perfect job amid a sour economy and high unemployment rate but also set up steps to accomplish this position by writing down her vision. I was inspired by the steps she took to land that perfect job.

Mom, my children at Channing’s college graduation

I am speaking of my daughter, Channing. She graduated from college in 2009 with a PSU degree in Broadcast Journalism. Unfortunately, she could not secure a suitable job in our small town.

The journey begins with creating her blog, Channinginthecity—a style blog sparked by one writer’s journey to finding a job in New York City.

The quote above is a verse from Proverbs that says, “Were there is no vision, people perish…”
“Channing took the time to examine herself for personal/ professional goals and created a vision board.

“Vision boards put goals in your subconscious mind, where they steer your everyday choices toward making the vision happen.”

“Fast-forward to 2013. After countless trips by train to New York City and endless interviews with no response, you were finally hired.” She starts as an editorial assistant for a significant lifestyle media company next week.
