Overqualified?

Lately I've been trying to find a part-time job within the legal realm. Thought it would be a great way for me to get back into the field before I do the law school thing. Plus would be a great place to get last minute references :) Anyways, I've applied for a couple of positions, but for some reason, I haven't heard anything back. Most of them have been on Craigslist, and being that there are no phone numbers I've had to just send a follow-up email to the same random email that I initially sent my cover letter and resume to.

What is bugging me, is why wouldn't I hear anything back? I don't know how other people operate, but when I apply for a job and nobody calls me back, I take it personal. For one, I'm not one of those people that just send generic cover letters to everyone they apply for. I take the time to personalize each one. Two, I don't just apply to any old place with an opening. I make sure I'm qualified for each position I apply for. Thirdly, I think I'm a damn good worker. So what's really good? I don't know...

I'll update on how this goes...

Do or Don't

I'm currently in a situation where there is action that I could take that I feel could get me what I ultimately want, but part of me doesn't want to feel like I'm forcing a situation, causing me to not get what I want at all. This is a VERY testy situation that I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to go well, but I'm very much conflicted on the best way to handle it.

How do you balance "Letting go and letting God" with "Taking life by the horns"?

Pray for me...
