"Now What? The Young Person's Guide to Choosing the Perfect Career" The impolite truth nobody mentions in college commencement speeches: "Many of you have just spent four years and a small fortune studying something you will never use, and, if you do, you won't like all that much. Have a nice life." Up until now, you've had to rely on hit-and-miss methods of picking your career that lead to only 30 percent of college graduates reporting satisfaction with their careers.
That's because up until now there has never been a book that guides you through the difficult process of designing a career that gives you the best chance for both high-level success and satisfaction. Get the book now | | Hi Isodifj,
 Hope your fall is starting off right! I was able to squeeze in one last trip this summer. My son Vaughn and I visited my dad in Florida and got one more tubing run in. We had a blast! We have many events planned for this fall. Our Vanderbilt Alumni "Identify Your Ideal Career" webinar series started this week. I am hosting a free webinar, “Coping With Career Regret”, on October 8th for the University of Colorado. On November 19, I'm leading our "Overcoming the Imposter Syndrome" webinar for the University of Minnesota Alumni. (View our videos on the Imposter Syndrome to get some quick insight on how to handle it: #1 My experience and #2-How to manage negative inner voices.)
Our Career Corner articles will help you reduce stress at work (which we could all use!), understand when to apologize at work and when not to, and improve your job search by avoiding the #1 mistake job seekers make. We hope these resources are helpful to you!

When your decision affects others in a negative way. Go here to read more.
4 Ways to Reduce Stress at Work  In a Feb 2015 APA report, 60% of American adults are stressed about their job. Not surprising, with how much we are bombarded with social media, multiple forms of communication (texting included), and the increase in job responsibilities and resulting stress due to downsizing from the recession. Although the APA reported stress levels are down, 60% is still a big number. Everyone handles stress uniquely, causing different problems depending on the person, from irritability, insomnia, to more serious health related issues.
