If I tell you to stop talking about any interview I go on as if I already have the job, then stop fucking talking about interviews as if I've already have the fucking job!!
I know some people like to manifest and say things like "I'm going to get this job" or whatever. You do you if that's your vibe. For me, whenever I do that, it's 1000x more devastating when I inevitably get rejected. There have been some interviews I've gone to that were jobs I really fucking wanted. Like if I those were my #1-3 choices. And even though I tried to have reasonable expectations ("I'm going to try my best and it would be cool if I got hired, but I know it's not guaranteed") it was still depressing to get that rejection email or not get a call back in the timeframe outlined.
When I say do not talk about a job interview that I will be going to as if I've already been hired, DO NOT FUCKING TALK ABOUT A JOB INTERVIEW I WILL BE GOING TO AS IF I'VE BEEN HIRED. It's very easy for me to get ahead of myself and imagine what it would be like to work there and if I let myself, I could easily start planning to work there before even being interviewed. I specifically don't do this, because not only is it delusional, it's so much harder to move on when I've gotten myself all excited vs. "eh this job would be alright, but it's whatever" I know that not getting myself worked up before an interview is my problem to work on and I'm trying to. So STOP FUCKING ENCOURAGING THAT MINDSET
