Getting a job where I'm doing work I'm proud of in an environment where I'm treated with respect and that had good benefits.
Realization that it's about the long haul, and is a numbers game. The right thing will come my way eventually. Also, celebrating failure because that means the only way to go is up. Leveraging the support of friends seems like a smart thing to do, as well.
