Are you ending 2012 still on your grind?
2012 ~ IS NOT OVER YET - so plan to end it on your grind!
Professional Development Tips to use right now before 2013 comes into play!
By: Natascha @AskTheJobCoach Saunders
‘We must use our time wisely’.
The
year is winding down, and soon we’ll be saying ‘Happy New Year’. Did you make
any promises to yourself that you were going to accomplish a few things before
the year ended? Are you happy with what you’ve accomplished thus far? If you
are great, congratulations stay the course. However, for those that could use a
little push from the career coach, here are 5 tips
to get back on Your Grind:
1. Take inventory. Accept where
you are, reflect on the past, create a plan to address it, determine what you
need to surpass it and keep moving!
2. Know when to move on. This is
tough in relationships or in a job. However, try this – stand in front of a
mirror and ask yourself, “Is what I am holding onto really where I should be?
 |
| Need motivation - I'm here for you! |
3. Find some ‘motivation’. You
need ‘motivation’ to support you when those not so good days arise. Determine who
or what can provide that motivation and set up a regular check’ in.
4. Manage your cipher. My mentor, Attorney
Joe Feaster said, ‘We have partners, friends, and associates and then there are
people we just know.’ Categorize the people in your life. Determine how much
time you give out and under what circumstance.
5. Take a break from the calls,
text, email & social media. Trust me this is hard but productivity is lost.
Consider downloading a program
on your computer to limit the amount of time you spend online (like
Leechblock).
Implement these 5 Tips to Get Back on Your Grind because the year is not over yet, so let’s see what you can do! If you discover
that you could use some advice, then reach out to Natascha on Twitter @AskTheJobCoach.

Do You Know Your Purpose?
A few months ago, I went in for a routine
eye exam to only be sent in urgency to another hospital to learn that I have an
excess of Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) building up
in my brain. On yesterday, I had a lumbar puncture
which helps to relieve the pressure in my brain and can help to prevent vision
problems or blindness, which they say can occur. Now, NO NEED to feel sorry, I’m
good!
I debated
for weeks if I should post this on facebook but this morning I woke up after being
in prayer realizing that God’s purpose for my life is so much greater than
being a career coach; and that if anyone was an open book and willing to share
their ups & downs, God knows it’s me.
There is a
reason why each of you has connected to me on social media, each of you has chosen
to share a piece of your world with me and I have done the same. So I ask you, DO
YOU KNOW YOUR PURPOSE?
We all have
faced trials and tribulations, disappointments and horrible tragedies but if we
have opened our eyes on today our purpose on this earth has not be completed. Steve Jobs, in his famous graduating
class at Stanford speech, said he starts his day asking "If today were the
last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?"
I ask each of you to take a moment and look
at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, ‘WHAT IS MY PURPOSE?’ The answer
lies in the pit of your soul, your deepest gut instinct, and it’s my belief if you
pray you will receive an answer.
So I challenge you to begin today making
the life you desire. Live the life you deserve. Appreciate the fact that you
can even see the words on this page clearly. I know that I am God’s child and he
has the ability to heal me. Yet, what I want more than anything is to travel
the road God has called me to travel, no matter where it may lead me.
I pray you have the strength to continue on
your journey as I do mine.
Love,
Natascha ‘Career Coach’ Saunders
