Breathers Before The Interview
by Mickey Mixon
You could not cut off the wings of those butterflies in your stomach. You could not tame that mouse running in your chest. Being nervous before an interview is of course very normal, even though you are a well-experienced person when it comes to conversing with people.
What must be done? You have to do things that will make you feel relaxed before being interviewed. This matters a lot, for the way you answer questions in the interview would be affected if you are too nervous.
The following are the things you could do in order for you to ease those monsters in your chest:
* Images & mind pictures
Imagine a picture of peace or serenity. This would really give you the peace of mind and the atmosphere to think and be relaxed. You have to try this method out. A couple of minutes of this would give a huge benefit.
* Breathe and smile
Breathe deeply, and then you exhale the pessimism within you. Do it for several times until you feel relieved from your nervousness.
* Carry a sweet memory
Choose a picture you like that would remind you of an inspiration. You could paste it in a notebook. Stare at it and recall beautiful memories. This would definitely help you get inspired for the interview.
* Oath of esteem
Remind yourself by being in silence, telling your self that you are the best for the job, you could answer the questions and you could be hired. Being positive moves mountains and it could build muscles of hope.
* Prayer
Prayer always works.
These three activities before the interview could ease your emotional burden. You are but human, and it is natural to feel those shivers within but hey! This may be a once in a lifetime chance and you could not afford to miss, could you?
