How you see yourself is likely how others will see you as well. Here’s a few examples of how you can implement this to your advantage.
- You’re unemployed. No you’re not. You’re advancing in your career, you’re an ambitious person looking to move up.
- You do freelance graphic design. No you don’t. You’re an artist.
Think of yourself as a product. You’re selling yourself to others. From your clothing to your way of speaking, you are a product to everyone you meet. Everyone from strangers to business owners subconsciously ask themselves if they want to buy you. So sell them your product. If you don’t market yourself or brand yourself in the way you want, others will most certainly do it for you.

awesome way of turning something around and making it work for you. I’ll definitely have to remember this when working on my next resume.
