The anti-resume
I hope one day you realize you don’t need a resume.
The kind of people you want to work with don’t want to see your list of interests and accolades. They don’t care about your work history, what schools you’ve attended, what awards you’ve won.
They want to know what work you’ve put into the world, what you’ve left behind, where you’re going.
The best work stands for itself.
Your resume is the communities that miss you after you’ve left, the imprint you leave behind. The relationships you’ve forged, the lives you’ve touched, and the work that sparkles with your finesse — this is your resume.
When you realize this, you’ll be filled with freedom and independence: titles no longer matter, job descriptions are irrelevant, length of employment fails to indicate your loyalty and value.
Your success doesn’t rest in the hands of another.
Why spend another moment waiting for the phone to ring? You’re worth more than that.
What if you created your own tribe, shipped your own art, designed a viable solution? Don’t wait for opportunities that may never find you. Create them. For yourself.
And change lives along the way.
