In this economy it is wise to look for a job NOT your dream job. You will spend endless hours, money and energy with coaches, success teams and networking when you could be geting paid for something you may not want or like.

Time to wake up and face the facts/smell the roses/pinch yourselves. There ARE positions out there that may not be be your fantasy job.
