Careering Tips Quick Read and Video Short
Our career takes up a major part of our life, as our livelihood and sustenance. And it’s where we choose to be contribution. That’s one reason career exploration is so important. It’s about the influence and positive impact you make, in addition to taking action on creating your future.
That’s why the process of careering is designed to get teens and young professionals like you out there doing, exploring, researching, trying out new things, and having helpful, career-related conversations with others. Yet, the key is to accomplish these steps, in a deliberate, purposeful and paced manner.
It’s not intended to add one more thing to your already-long list of extracurriculars and chores that you have to complete. Instead, the purpose is to create a whole new perspective about the future.
Personally, my hopes are that young people like you find fun, exploration and adventure—along with responsibility and accountability—in finding out what’s next in your lives.
Along with creating a habit or routine of taking action on career exploration, it’s equally important to see the joy. And to offer yourself support, kindness and compassion throughout the process.
Here are FIVE quick and valuable reminders that will help you stay the course of careering in a happy and positive way:
Reminder #1 – Be sure to take time for yourself during the exploration process and have fun with it.
Reminder #2 – Be self-caring—and self-loving—in your journey.
Reminder #3 – Cut yourself some slack when you haven’t quite completed things the way you thought and in the time you thought it would take.
Reminder #4 – Celebrate your triumphs and accomplishments big and small. By doing so, you are fueling positive momentum to continue your career exploration journey!
Reminder #5 – Consider taking a break from career exploration from time to time. More times than not, once you’ve had a break, you’ll be able to see with a clearer perspective and may notice things you might not have been able to before.
So, the main takeaway is to stay the course of careering but be sure to take care of yourself too.
