A lot of women are guilty of résumé hopping. It’s literally like they are still adhering to the advice they got from their mothers years ago. Their mothers or grandmothers would get excited so that they hooked their daughters up with a doctor or a lawyer. Yet that doctor or lawyer was some boring, nerdy guy they weren’t really attracted to, even after they tried to find something attractive about him.

Even after letting go of some of mother’s and grandmother’s bad advice, a lot of women today still résumé hop. They’ll meet a guy, they’ll find out what he does for a living and where he went to school, and immediately they’ll put him in a certain class. He’s relationship material because he’s a doctor, a lawyer, in finance, a business entrepreneur, whatever it might be.

They’ll get all excited about this guy and who he is as a person because he has the perfect resume, he looks good on paper. Yet on the actual date, he doesn’t even know how to conduct himself or hold an interesting conversation.

So many women are guilty of doing this. You’ve got to listen to the man you’re dating. You’ve got to stop fantasizing about this guy’s resume, being so impressed by what he does, and start really listening to who he is and what he believes in life.

Otherwise you’re going to be perpetually stuck. You’re going to spin your wheels just like you’re stuck in snow and your rear tires will just keep spinning and spinning and spinning. It’s time you opened your eyes, stopped looking at the resume, and looked at the full picture of the man in front of you.
