Quote: "Change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life." --- Herbert Otto Now onto the "little extra" for today: Career Tag Within Your Mind By Miles Patrick Yohnke Copyright © 2015 - All Rights Reserved. Tag. You're IT. Tag is a child's playground activity. The commonly referred to "game of life" is not a game but a
reality. Find a job that you love and you'll add five days to your week. For real. Create your own adult playground! Often one's life can really feel more like a game though. A
game of hide and seek. One can feel like they are hiding from themselves and each other by not doing the things that they truly desire within their hearts. We can all find ourselves occupying this place through the course of our lives. Perhaps we are in a field of work that we have strived for, even though we end up striving for more. What I'd recommend and I'd suggest this to anyone, in any field, is to write a list of your strengths and your weaknesses. In that list of strengths I don't want you to write things like: "I'm a good person", "hard worker", "I don't miss much work;
rarely am I sick." Most people are this. Rather, create a list of things that make you different. Things like: I think outside the box. ie: I can find solutions to problems. I can create original thoughts, ideas for our division, company - which in return creates more
profits? More jobs? Expand on this. What is it that is special about you, your mind, your being? How are you an asset to your company to take on new goals, and new areas within the company? Companies often place a fear within their employees. Do a role reversal. Be sure to read the rest of the article at: Have a wonderfully blessed day!
