🔧 Tuesday Tune-Up, Week 3: Simplify to Move Forward

Today is about clearing mental clutter so your next steps feel lighter.


🧭 Step 1: Reconnect With Your Non-Negotiables

Ask:

“What are the top three things I absolutely need in my next job?”

Examples:

  • Respect
  • Flexibility
  • Growth
  • Stability
  • Creativity

These become your compass.


🧹 Step 2: Remove One Source of Job Search Noise

Choose one:

  • Turn off job alerts that don’t fit
  • Unfollow accounts that trigger comparison
  • Delete outdated versions of your resume
  • Remove roles you applied to but don’t want anymore

Less noise = more clarity.


📬 Step 3: Send a Clarity-Building Message

Something like:

“Hi! I’m exploring roles in ___ and would love your insight when you have time.”

This isn’t networking — it’s information gathering.


💡 Your Tuesday Tune-Up Mantra

“Clarity grows when I remove what no longer fits.”
