The 7th day of every month, a day devoted to St Cajetan

Statue of St Cajetan in Sta Maria della Pieta, Ferrara

The feast day of St Cajetan occurs every 7th August in memory of the day he died in 1547.
Devotees of St Cajetan take this further and often dedicate every 7th day of each month to him,
and sometimes every day with a seven in it, so 17th, 27th, for special acts of devotion in honour of the saint.
Perhaps incorporate this in your prayer life and use every 7 day as a marker
to take stock and reconnect with God & St Cajetan.
If you are job hunting perhaps aim to get a certain amount of things
done by the 7th, 17th or 27th
(ie. I shall send out X CVs, write Y number of covering letters etc)
so you can incorporate devotion as a complement to your job search.
Perhaps then take this "7" day off to reward yourself and recharge both physically and spiritually.
