"Happy" New Year Coming? - Fact or Fiction

Christmas is gone for 2007, but not forgotten. The grand kids had a wonderful time playing, running, shouting, grabbing, opening, throwing, and losing many gifts. My oldest got a Wii and is already a rock star with guitar hero. Although his dad has as much fun playing too. Well what does the New Year hold for us? Do we get lost in the new toys and games for a month or two? Do we dread as adults going back to that same old job we've done or had for years? How do we beat the New Year doldrums?

Here are some tips I ran across for a New Year job seeker or changer:

1. Reevaluate yourself.
2. Do your homework.
3. Party, er, network.
4. Sharpen your resume.
5. Be patient.

Life is always filled with opportunities to refresh or refill one's self. I hope this New Year will be your happiest ever!
