Four Suggestions to Consider When Advancing Your Career

1. DON’T LET THE PERKS DETERMINE YOUR CAREER PATH

​Keep your eye on your needs and you won’t regret your career choices. The lure of an expense account, health insurance and a retirement plan can take you off course. We receive many requests from people that are looking for career coaching. A vast majority of those requests come from people that definitively know what they DO NOT want. 

Your career goal should not simply be about avoiding a miserable work environment. In order to achieve a high level of career fulfillment, you have to have a clear understanding of your specific career and personal needs. 

2. DEVELOP YOUR INTUITION AND USE IT

Developing your intuition is great way in pursuing career fulfillment. Some call this street smarts, other will call it your gut feeling. Using your intuition, gut or street smarts in conjunction with solid logic is the best combination. Relying on your logical brain too much, will guide you away from many legitimate opportunities in career advancement. On the other hand, using your gut only without using valuable critical thinking skills will also misguide you. Working with a certified coach will help you to have balance between the two. 

3. DEVELOP YOUR CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS

At some point in early development you may have learned that asking for help was not for you. There may have been a well -intended adult that forced their beliefs on you, and you felt trapped or disrespected as a result. Going into adulthood, you may have decided not to ask for help or take the advice from someone that had the wisdom to help you succeed. Getting the facts from a credible person is a big part of using critical thinking skills. Using critical thinking skills will be very useful in determining the career path that is best for you resulting in career fulfillment. 

4. MAKE CAREER CHANGES MINDFULLY

Today the average person stays at a job for 22 months. Many of those same people even change careers entirely. Job hopping without considering whether or not doing so will advance your career can prove to be time wasting. Many career hopping people get stuck in an anxious cycle of discontentment. Getting personal coaching help will enable you to carefully analyze what’s working and what’s not. Most importantly, you’ll get clear answers as to the “why” your career path is correct or needs to be adjusted. Take your time and make thoughtful decisions based on carefully crafted strategies.
