Attract the Right Job or Clientele:
Regardless of political leaning, it’s safe to say we are experiencing uncertainty in many regards. Our businesses and careers deserve careful examination on all levels. Giving credence to “History repeats itself,” I’m sharing the following quote.
In 1859 Charles Dickens wrote:
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.”
My Story
It’s very easy to allow the news to affect us. The better plan is to acknowledge all that transpires while selectively moving forward. Previous blogs give an indication that my endeavors have been trimmed to focus on those most preferred. At the same time, expenditures, income, and proposed outcomes are all weighed as requests come forth.
I believe educating ourselves on the new and what intrigues us most will land us in a better spot. Intrigue leads us to further motivation for continuing. A word of caution is to choose wisely. For example, a few video tracks were previously marketed like crazy, but they didn’t appeal to me, so I ignored them. The previously highly touted tracks are now falling by the wayside.
On the opposite side of the coin, bitcoin intrigues me. It’s not that I’ll invest in the new system, but I want to know what it’s all about as it is continually in the news. Likewise, reading classic books, coming to grips with some history, and keeping an eye on the daily news, has me reading signs that signal caution while moving forward.
We once again live in uncertain times that suggest we are to review investments and expenditures in every regard. It will be foolish not to examine how we receive and spend money. My philosophy is to be aware of and keep options open.
Your Story
Should you be concerned about ‘what’s next’, due to uncertainty as our history is to be laid out and sits in front of us, there are cautionary steps you may take. As you consider the following ideas, decide what will work best for you.
Slow Down to Move Up
Now may be the perfect opportunity to gain additional education. Perhaps you are intrigued by robotics or IOT; if so, take classes to learn more. After the education, you just might be motivated to switch careers.
As an entrepreneur, no doubt you have seen intriguing mention of new social trends. Now may be the right time for further exploration of the new strategies being encouraged.
Business and career can be affected by the news that drives anxiety. As anxiousness increases, we find ourselves on a simulated roller coaster ride. However, it is how we handle the bottom that dictates whether we will make it to the exhilarating highs.
Yesterday’s blog spoke to having a Plan B to keep the motivation in motion.
