No BS Career Advice: January 19 2025

No BS Career Advice: January 19 2025

By Jeff Altman, The Big Game Hunter

One thing I know is that I need a daily dose of inspiration to handle everything that is thrown at me and lately there has been a lot thrown at me.

One of many ways I get support is from an app I’ve downloaded, Spirit@Work cards. Created by Dr. Lance Secretan, there is a free and paid version of the app to give you a dose of inspiration for your day.

I know it is available in the App Store. I don’t know about it elsewhere, Download it and use it each morning. Answer the question it asks at the end of the inspiration. I believe it will help you as it has me.



If you visit my website, www.JobSearch.Community and click the button to become an Insider, at checkout, enter code INSIDERFREE between now and February 1 at midnight, you will have access to all the video courses, books, and guides available there for free.

I want to help more and I am giving away this content free with no obligation. If you want to purchase a half hour, an hour, four hours, or more with me, great! If not, that’s ok. People need help and I want to give it to more of you as you start the new year.

Also, sign up for the email list and receive weekly thoughts of mine, different than what you receive here.

Share No BS Career Advice so others can benefit from the advice.
