If you know me, you know how incredibly impatient I can be at times. I have a problem sitting still, too. Those two things contribute to a recipe for me getting really antsy during this job-hunt business. But it has also taught me a valuable lesson:

It's ok to take breaks and relax. Sometimes you need to just breathe.

And I think that applies in job-hunting, in a career or while going to school. Whether or not you have a "work hard, play hard" mentality or not, there is something to be said about taking a few moments for yourself.

So I'm encouraging all of you to breathe. Go for a walk. Read a few pages of that book you started. Get yourself a coffee (heck, buy yourself a beer-- because you're worth it!)
