The Future of You. Preparing for Your Career & Financial Success
It is hard not to be affected by the passing of Kobe, his daughter, and the other passengers on that helicopter. I didn't know Kobe personally, and I am not even a Lakers fan, but the accident affects us all. We are parents, friends, colleagues, and humans. The tragedy makes us pause and realize how precious and fragile life is. My heart feels heavy today, and I can't help but want to be more loving, gentler, forgiving, and gracious to those around me. RIP Kobe.
I recently had a conversation with an industry colleague, and I realized that how he helps solve business problems, is the same way that I help solve people problems.
We both find the bottleneck. Read below and let me know your thoughts!!

Find Your Bottleneck
What do successful, happy, fulfilled executives all have in common?
I hear the following:
#1 They took time to reflect, plan, and strategize their career
#2 They nurtured their professional contacts and made networking a priority
Implementing these strategies leads to a career that YOU have created.
Here's where you can start….
✔ Block time on your calendar each week to reflect, think, and journal
✔ Create a list of 10 people who you admire and respect.
✔Then, make time on your calendar to connect each of those people.
Spend 30 minutes, once a quarter, on a call.
Simple steps bring big rewards.
Do you take out time each week to think, journal or connect?

✔Are you constantly tired?
✔Do you have stomach issues?
✔Have you lost weight? Gained weight?
✔Can't sleep?
✔Feel short tempered?
✔Constantly crabby and annoyed?
✔Missed time with your family?
This is not the disclaimer on a drug commercial - it’s the cost of staying employed in a role that you hate.
Most of us (including myself ) do not take the time to identify and reflect on how the work we hate affects other areas of our lives.
And you keep thinking…… 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒉𝒂𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔.
But, you keep pushing forward and ignoring the clues.
Maybe you're feeling too old to make a change.
Or, you feel stuck and have no idea what you would do next.
Or, maybe you think this is just "the way it is" - work is not supposed to be easy.
The truth is that you don't have to feel stuck.
You CAN make a change.
Message me - it’s confidential. We’ll set up a call to talk about how you can make a change.
