Taking Charge of Your Career Destiny
Embrace a New Mindset
Blaming external circumstances for our current situations only perpetuates our sense of helplessness. It's time for a mindset shift. Despite the challenges and constraints, you are not stuck. Let's break free from limiting narratives and embrace the boundless possibilities ahead.
Believe in Your Potential
It's essential to reaffirm your belief in yourself. You have no excuse to remain stagnant. With guidance and motivation, you can unlock your potential and design the fulfilling life and career you deserve.
Understanding Workplace Engagement
Are you among the majority feeling disengaged at work? Globally, nearly 80% of employees share this sentiment. It's time to address the underlying issues driving this disengagement, and stop ignoring it.
Why We Stay in Unfulfilling Jobs
Fear, uncertainty, financial concerns, and societal pressures often keep us tethered to unhappy jobs. It's crucial to identify and confront these barriers to pursue meaningful career changes effectively.
Defining Desired Feelings: Shifting your Focus
Instead of chasing external validations and societal expectations, focus on defining your desired feelings. Understanding "junk values" and their impact can help you realign your priorities and pursue genuine fulfilment through your work.
Discover Your Tendency: Designing Your Dream Career
Understanding how you respond to expectations—both internal and external—is key to shaping your ideal work-life balance. Whether you're an Upholder, Questioner, Obliger, or Rebel, leverage your tendencies to achieve your goals. Refer to Gretchen Rubin's 4 tendency quiz to learn what your tendency is.
Overcoming Career Saboteurs
Internal saboteurs often hinder our progress and perpetuate self-doubt. By identifying and silencing these negative voices, you can navigate career transitions more effectively and maintain resilience in the face of setbacks. Take the free Saboteur Assessment to identify your strongest saboteurs.
The First Step in Career Change
Before diving into a job search, invest time in self-exploration. Understand your values, passions, strengths, life purpose, skills and motivations to ensure that your career change aligns with your authentic self and long-term aspirations.
Insights from Personal Career Changes
Reflecting on my own career journey, I emphasise the importance of identifying your innate talents, prioritising life over work, defining your core values, leading a high-impact career, and embracing the freedom of choice.
Shaping Your Career Intentionally
