Thought for the day....
Sometimes skill sets are like those hidden picture puzzles., For instance you view your work experience as the big picture but there are hidden treasures that you don't automatically see. Think outside the box, often we have skills that we don't recognize as skills such as, with this economy you may find that you have a talent for managing a budget, parents are often great mediators, and those that are caregivers have the patience of Job. What skills do you have that you are overlooking? Make a list of the things you do daily and those things love to do (chances are you excel at it) what skills are used? Ask others to help by listing the qualities they see. Think how those qualities can be used in an employment environment and list them as part of your skill set.

This is wonderful advice, Ra'mon! Thank you so much for sharing!
You're so right Ra'mon. I love the advice of asking others what they think we're best at. We're often our own worst critics, so our friends and family can reveal skills and strengths we may have never thought we had.
