#18: I'm willing to challenge traditional thinking

I think nothing provides more supporting evidence of this than the fact that I started this blog to aid my job search. Conventional wisdom might tell you that resumes, cover letters, and a conservative approach to the job search is really the way to go.  In a normal economy that might work, but when somebody received a few hundred resumes for one position, you really need to stand out. I just read an interview on Dan Schwabel's blog about the importance of audacity. No doubt, this has been one of my most audacious online moves, but I've also rebuilt Bizskoolblog and launched the Skooloflife to extend my credibility.   To add to that, I've already started considering how I will uses this domain after I get my job. Most likely it will be a blog that I dedicate to the job search process, something I've lived in and breathed for a year.
