There are many times in life when it will be difficult for you to stay motivated, for example, in a tough job search . Don’t be discouraged by reminding yourself of times in the past when you might have taken up the challenge and moved forward.
Jenny Foss, writing for Muse, explains why this is important:

These memories serve as proof that you can handle your job search and come out on top. Use them as a mental uplifting conversation to keep you focused on your goal. More tips on how to make your job search less stressful can be found in the full post at the link below.
