Stop the Job Suckage: Day Six
* This ten-day series is designed to help you kickstart a new way of approaching your job or career. Over ten days, we’ll explore how to look objectively at the job/career situation you’re in, and clarify where to go next. For some, that might mean not leaving a job but drastically improving it in some meaningful way. For others, this series will provide some help with clarifying your next career move or pave the way to a transition. You’re strongly encouraged to complete all ten steps, in order, to see what answers you arrive at.
Day Six–whew!
You’ve looked at how to be in integrity (if you skipped the last post, it’s really important–pause, read, then come back here).
Now it’s time for action. Look at your list of possible solutions from days three and four.
Choose between 3-5 items (challenge yourself to go beyond that, even) and implement them.
Now.
Not tomorrow. Not next week.
Now.
It’s Wednesday. You can do this. You don’t have to do it perfectly. You don’t have to see the effects immediately.
You don’t “have to” do anything–you GET to do this. Chances are good that if you are reading this, you are living in one of the lucky countries where changes such as, say, improving communication skills in the workplace or having a more balanced schedule are “luxury problems.” I don’t say that to guilt you; I say it to encourage you to take advantage of how fortunate you are. Use your power.
Get started.
Tomorrow we’ll address: “I’m going along with all of this, but I still don’t want to be in this line of work. Now what?”
