Trish Sadar's insight:

Excellent advice! 

 

Planning as early as high school in regards to what industries are growing, and what experience, projects, and skills will be needed to land the first job in your career path.

 

Starting early to apply to the employers who offer internships in your industry, and in your area of expertise.

 

All excellent tips.  The time you invest for planning now will springboard you years ahead of the competition.  Education provides additional tools in your toolbox; however, you have to use the tools and drive your career.  The tools will not do the driving for you.

 

Make it a great day!

Sharon has 20 years of experience as a human resources consultant, trainer and career counselor.
Trish Sadar's insight:

In this article:  Sharon Armstrong: I often encourage them to find a career coach with whom they have some chemistry. A good coach can help the individual cope with the stress of change and focus their search efforts on self-assessment and marketplace realities. They provide a structure and a method for the process. They support, challenge and hold the job seeker accountable. A coach will help the client define their career goal, develop a marketing plan, write an effective resume that markets their unique selling proposition, polish their interviewing skills and think about networking in new ways.

Zig said it for everyone to believe.  It is true, each of us has our own dreams and abilities.  We are the only ones who can use them.

 

What is stopping you?  Your education, knowledge, and experience are valuable tools; however, they won't drive your career for you.  You have to take the wheel, start the engine, and take action. 

 

Decide where you want to be...don't let anyone else drive your career.

Many of us get so caught up in day-to-day work that we lose sight of whether we're on the right path. Do you enjoy going to work every day? Are you stimulated by what you do? Are you making enough to live the way you want and save for the future?
Trish Sadar's insight:

Nice reminder!

 

Throughout our careers we need to be consistently asking ourselves:

 

1.  Where am I now?  (In relation to my career goal & next career ladder step)

2.  Where do I want to be?  What does success look like?  Why is it important to me?

3.  How do I get there?  Am I taking steps in the right direction?

 

Asking these questions have helped me stay on track and risk getting derailed from achieving my goals.

 

What are some of the things you do to stay on track?
