Forward, Stuck or Backward - What Are Your Strengths?

You are reading from the book  “Just Quit” & Live 

Q: Why do you want to quit your job EVEN if you don’t have another job lined-up?

I hate my job. I don’t get to do what I thought I would be doing. It feels like the role is moving me backwards in my career.

Today’s Meditation:

We are either moving forward, feeling stuck, or moving backward. 

Where are you on that spectrum today?

P.S.

Of course we all want to be moving forward in our careers, but sometimes we are STUCK or going BACKWARDS.

The first thing we need to do to get unstuck or going forward is to recognize where we are and admit it. That is easier said than done.  Why?  Because we then need to do something about it and that is where the rubber hits the road.  That is where we have to make some decisions and many of us…

Have NO IDEA what we are good at, or what we want to do with the rest of our lives.

TODAY…just focus on your strengths.

Strengths are those skills that are innate.  You can use your strengths in any industry, any job, any country, or anywhere.

What are you good at?  What do you love doing?

If you feel you don’t know your strengths, then ask someone who knows you well what they see as your strengths.

One way or the other today your task is to write down three of your strengths.

Just write them down for now…
