Self-doubt might be a sign of true talent
People often become more self-conscious about their abilities as they become more accomplished, Oliver Burkeman writes. It's fine to compare yourself to colleagues and critically evaluate your work, but don't forget that all talented people feel inadequate at times, he writes. 99U (10/1)

The Landscape
Report: Unemployment rate dipped below 6% in September
U.S. companies created 248,000 new jobs last month, including 35,000 retail positions, according to the Labor Department. It was the second best month for job creation this year, sending the unemployment rate from 6.1% to 5.9%, a low not seen since July 2008. "Clearly a solid number sets the table for a positive fourth quarter outlook," said NRF Chief Economist Jack Kleinhenz. USA Today (10/3), The Wall Street Journal (tiered subscription model) (10/3)

Your Next Challenge
Never ask this question during a job search
Job seekers should avoid asking their contacts straight out if they know of any job openings, writes Jason Alba, the CEO of JibberJobber.com. Even worse is to follow up the question with a statement such as "I'm willing to do anything." The tactic makes you seem desperate and inexperienced, Alba writes. Business Insider (10/3)

Balancing Yourself
Don't wait until after work to exercise
Workers in a recent study who exercised during regular work hours reported feeling more productive and satisfied at the end of the day. The key to consistent exercise is finding something you enjoy doing so it's easier to incorporate into your day-to-day activities, Ron Friedman writes.
