Grasping the idea of rizq as I look for advice

Salaam everyone. I’ve been out of a job for over a year now, even with a master’s degree. Honestly, I’m exhausted from all the ghosting and rejections. Every time it seems like something might work out, it slips away at the last second. Alhamdulillah, Allah has provided enough to keep me going, but I really crave some stability. I switched gears and tried applying for fully funded PhD spots too, but no luck there either. It’s been pretty discouraging sometimes. I’m asking for advice: what can I do to improve my connection with Allah so that what’s good for me reaches me without more delay?

This hit home. I was unemployed for 2 years with a PhD. Giving sadaqah, even a little, and really trusting Allah turned things around. Just a thought.

Honestly akhi, your rizq is written. Nobody can take what's for you. Stay strong and watch for the blessings in the small things.

Maybe check if your source of income is purely halal? Cutting out anything doubtful can unblock barakah. Wallahu a'lam.

Yeah man, I feel you. That late tahajjud prayer hits different, especially when you're really asking. Don't sleep on it.
