Hello there,
When did you last think about how good you are at your job? Here are some ideas to help you remember just how awesome you are.
Rediscover Your Potential: Embrace Change in Your Career
When was the last time you took a moment to reflect on how amazing you are at your job? Let’s explore some ideas to help you recognise your unique strengths and reignite your passion for your career.
Step Out of Your Comfort Zone
We all love the comfort of our routines—like sipping hot chocolate on a crisp autumn day. But what if you’re ready to shake things up and explore new opportunities? Whether you have specific ideas in mind or feel stuck in a rut, there’s always room for growth.
Acknowledge Your Achievements
It’s common to feel overwhelmed by the demands of a busy job, especially in the medical field. As you navigate your career, it’s easy to forget the skills and experiences that make you exceptional. How often do you find yourself saying, “I’m just a…”?
Challenge yourself: Replace that mindset with one that celebrates your achievements. Remember, you don’t need to meet every criterion in a job description to be an excellent candidate. You might be more qualified than you think!
Consider a Portfolio Career
A portfolio career could be the refreshing change you need. There are no strict rules—sometimes, all it takes is a little permission to explore new paths. This could mean reducing your hours to pursue another role, setting boundaries, or even trying something entirely different.
Take Action: Your Next Steps
Craft Your Dream Job Description: Imagine your ideal role. What does it look like? List out all the essential and desirable criteria, perks, and salary expectations. Dream big!
Update Your CV: Reflect on your experiences and transferable skills. If you notice any gaps, think about how you can fill them.
Write a Compelling Cover Letter: Create a two-page letter highlighting why you’re perfect for your dream job. Focus on what makes you uniquely qualified—banish thoughts of “I’m just a…”
Make Small Changes: If your ideal role doesn’t exist yet, consider what small adjustments you can make now. Setting boundaries or carving out time for yourself can lead to significant shifts without overwhelming change.
Seek Support
If you're feeling stuck, consider working with a coach who can provide guidance and accountability. A good coach will listen and help reflect on your thoughts, making it easier for you to take meaningful steps forward.
