What do you want to be when you grow up? You may think that this a silly question but many people are still trying to figure out why they are here. The world is changing and this new economy is forcing many to rethink their career choices. Think about how you ended up in your career. How did you start working in the profession that you are in? Was it happenstance or did you go through formal training? Did you dream about becoming who are you are today when you were a little child? However you got here, you are here! You have managed to successfully carve out your niche but is this really your niche? So, what do you want to be when you grow up?
If you are in transition and you are caught between a layoff and a layup, now is the time to think about what you have been called to do. What you have been called to do is innate to you. It is something you love and it is something that you would do that is effortless. You do not get stressed about this calling because you love it. It comes natural to you. This gift inspires, motivates and impacts others positively. It brings out the best in you. It is a part who you really have been called to be and what you have been called to do. It is something you will do even if you are not compensated. It excites you and causes you to excite others.
Let us look at these times as a time to become who we really have been called to be and not settle on what we happened to become. Transitions are made to move you through life’s roads so you do not get stuck in the same lane. Get in your own lane and work out your dream!
It is time to learn something new! Invest in you!
Keep on moving, don’t stop!
