8 Mins To Reconnect With Your Career Awesomeness
It’s time to stop saying “I don’t know what I’m good at’”. It’s time to stop discounting YOU and your accomplishments, wisdom, knowledge, and experience.
I want to help you step into your power and build your confidence whilst you pivot your career. Remember when you pivot, you are not leaving anything behind. You are not starting from scratch. You have a serious amount of career equity to pivot with. Let’s reconnect with it.
Try this for an exercise.
Get a playlist/album that makes you feel awesome.
Pop that music on.
Set a timer for 8 minutes and brainstorm/mindmap EVERYTHING about your brilliance
Be sure to include:
• The skills and talents you’ve developed over time.
• Positions you’ve held. All of them. Even when you were young.
• Degrees and school stuff you achieved.
• Awards you’ve won, regardless of the topic.
• Training, areas of study you’ve immersed yourself in overtime.
• Life experiences or situations you’ve overcome.
• Natural skills and talents.
• Skills and talents you take for granted because they’re easy for you.
• What people value about you at work (what have people thanked you for?)
• What people value about you at home (what have people thanked you for?)
• What you value and appreciate about yourself.
• What you’ve created.
• What you’re proud of having accomplished
After 8 minutes of just writing, what you do think? Can you keep going?
Know that everything you have done before has been preparing you for this moment. You are not leaving any of this awesomeness behind when you pivot. These are pivot powers that will fuel your next move. You are now ready to take them forward.
