Accelerate Your Career! With Best New Year Tips
Are you at ease? Do you feel that you are not going on, that your career development has stalled? You get used expertise and your potential or you have little energy and motivation? Have you ended up in the category "reasonably satisfied" that goes okay? Maybe it's time to focus ahead on what actually provides career development and job satisfaction, time to change the 'okay' to 'great'.
Where has the working my joy, developments and challenges mine, what gives purpose and meaning? What has happened, what do I do now? It is easy that career goes on autopilot. The years pass until something suddenly happens, something that makes you awakened to thinking about how you really have it in relation to job and career. Often the reflections on job satisfaction when one is fit stressed or tired. In my job I meet often statements like "it was just so", when I ask questions about why they "took hold" of his career earlier. There may be external factors or coincidences that make you choose what you do. Nor is it always easy to ask themselves the right questions, ones that provide valuable choices and development.
What is most important to you: Jobs and career, or what you do outside of work? Do you focus on career and strive to adapt their lives to the job? Or do you focus on what life you want to live and get jobs and careers to fit into it? Think about it before you read on, what is important to you, work or "the others"?
Should we choose our career by head or heart? "Yes please, both" is a fine answer. The tendency is often too many to choose head ruled early in his career, then select more balanced later. What costs career us? How much must sacrifice other parts of their lives? What is most important in the stage I'm in now? These are questions that may be helpful to imagine.
Identify your satisfaction - take the test!
We often need help to put things in perspective, to get new ideas. We think that we have done, we get what we've got. Thus, new approaches may be helpful. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you feel that your company and your job gives you meaning, and how important this job is really for you?
- You get used your talents, and made it to cope and thrive with?
- Think back to the jobs or the work you had. What do you have mastered the best and most successful in?
- What have you enjoyed at least with or succeed with the poorest?
- Think about your specific tasks. Make a list of 6-8 points with what you spend the most time and think about how satisfied you are with the individual points. Please use a scale of 1-10, where 10 is a home run in relation to the satisfaction of the point, and 1 is completely dissatisfied. Then you quickly an overview of how satisfied you are with what you spend the most time on average.
- Blink out the 3 tasks that give you the most energy and joy today.
- Take the list with 6.8 points and go through each item. Think about whether you would use more or less time on certain tasks, if it were possible.
- Do you have time and resources to carry out what you think is important? Stretches to?
- How satisfied are you with your immediate supervisor, colleagues and the environment?
- Is there a culture of mutual benefit, you developed yourself, and you get the feedback you need?
Would you be happier in a new job, or are you going to invest where you are?
Many who come to me for career guidance has made exercise with changing jobs, but continue with the same duties, some several times. However, they are not satisfied, and then it's time to take a proper grip on his career and evaluate tasks and what you spend the most time.
Learn to evaluate yourself and the organization you are, and learn how you can see that you have come as far as possible in one place. Will a job change for you to be a step up the career ladder, or will it prove to be a step to the side? Would a change in career make any difference in how you feel?
What you lack in current job - what is your ambition?
Why go to work? In Norway, we are in a unique situation in the world scale, we do not actually work, the state takes care of us! So when I ask the question to the people I coach, who have enough money, I get roughly the same answers: Get "used up", using talents, mate interests, be part of something, deliver something to the community. So we will have something that gives us meaning, so that when we come home after a working day shall it feels good!
