TORONTO, ON -- Managing your career requires preparation and ensuring that your time is directed meaningfully. Just like athletes who prepare for the "big game", or a marathon, designing your career requires goals, planning, work, and above all, commitment. Think of yourself as a Career Athlete.
Being a Career Athlete requires awareness and action. Athletes are aware of their gifts, talents and abilities. They then focus their training on sharpening these skills with the goal of being the best they can be. Designing your career is no different. You'll also need to focus your attention on the "training". What steps do you need to take in order to design a career that honors your abilities? What is in your way, that you need to overcome, as you strive for this goal? Knowing what may become a stumbling block allows you to move through it much easier when it occurs, rather than being stopped by it.
Shape your career, don't let it shape you! Decide what you want and create your opportunities accordingly. A Career Coach can help define your goals and a Career Marketing & Outplacement Service can help with a Career Evaluation. back
