Never Overlook the Obvious By: Harrison Barnes
Career Mission's Chief Executive Officer, A. Harrison Barnes discussed how many a time obvious solutions are overlooked.
Harrison narrates a bizarre incident, which involved a poorly constructed asphalt sealer tank that he had rented. He had rented an asphalt sealer tank that had a pipe welded to the bottom of the tank which meant that it shook when it was on the freeway. He had gotten on the freeway with his tank and because of the ass-backwards design of this rental tank, it had shaken loose and poured a 3 mile path of asphalt sealer all through the City of St. Clair Shores, by the time he had exited the freeway at 9 mile drive. It was a complete disaster.
He was summoned to court where among others, environmental protesters had also shown up for the hearing. After lot of deliberations the court asked him to pay $18,000 to get the tar removed from the street. Later Harrison gave a solution where he suggested that he could himself pick up the material and put it on a driveway. “It is asphalt sealer. That is what it is made for,” he said matter-of-factly.
The entire court room fell silent. Everyone very quickly realized the ridiculousness of the whole situation. There were all these studies and all of this issue about the environment, when all that was needed was to pick up the asphalt sealer and reuse it on a driveway.
It was amazing how something so simple had been overanalyzed and the most obvious solution had been overlooked. So many people overlook the obvious. In your job search and life do not overlook the obvious. Many times the solution to whatever problem you are facing is right in front of you and very simple. We often create mountains out of mole hills for reasons that simply make no sense.

"There are always vacancies. Organizations are born, organizations expand, workers become restless, quit, change jobs, move, become ill long-term, or become handicapped, retire, or die. There are always jobs out there waiting to be filled. The fact that you can't find those jobs only means the vacancy hasn't been advertised, or you're not using the right method to find it. When the Internet or job-postings, or agencies, or ads, or resumes, don't work, there are other ways of turning up the job you want. So, if you're coming up 'empty,' you need to change the search method you've been using. ... To speed up your search for one of the jobs that are out there, go after many different organizations, instead of just one or two."
