Transitions the Easier Way: Career & Life

Posted in Careers & Jobs, People-Skills, Thriving in Change, inspiration on Nov 9th, 2009

Career and life transitions are difficult for many people. For some — downright scary. People feel they can no longer be who they are nor are they sure of what their life will become.

So what happens? They resist career and life changes. Wrong move for sure. There’s an easier way to transition to your new career and life goals. Need a little inspiration and guidance for the impending changes and transition?

Here’s one of my two minute motivators including music. It inspires and teaches lessons learned from my three career changes and even more transitions.  Change really doesn’t have to be so hard!

Remember, people change when the fear/risk of changing is less than the fear of staying the same. So take inspiration from this two minute motivator and replace your fear with the easier way.

After you watch this two minute motivator,  add your insights and transition stories in the comments field below.  I also welcome your questions.  I am here to help as a coach or as the speaker at your next event.

Motivate Mondays: Tips to inspire a great start of the week:

  • Sunday, have fun during the day, get organized in the evening, and sleep happy at night.
  • Plant a big smile on your face as you go to work.  Let your actions control your feelings not the reverse.
  • Do something different at work on Monday morning.  It will change the entire week.
  • Ask your teams and colleagues: What will we learn this week?  Because you change how you start the week, your week will take a new and different path.

Inspiring yourself and others has great rewards.  It changes your thinking.  It changes your outlook.  It changes what happens around you because of your actions to try something different and change.
