Lose your job recently? Think you might be in the wrong job? Wondering if perhaps you haven’t found the purpose and passion that you know is inside your soul?
Well then, I hope you tune in to A Closer Look this week because Career counselor and intuitive Sue Frederick guests! And we’ll be taking calls! Sue has helped some of the biggest wigs on Wall Street find new career paths after the economic blow-up. I bet she can help you and me!
Sue has been featured in People Magazine and quoted in the New York Times. “If your career has recently ended, now is the time to think out of the box about what you’ve come here to do. This is your great opportunity for reinvention. In order to tap into the great abundance that still abounds on this planet, try these six steps.”
1. Shut up! Quit telling your sad story to everyone. Take a deep breath and recognize the gift in this opportunity to reinvent yourself. It’s not the end of your world, it’s the beginning. Quiet the fear thinking and tap into your higher intuitive self where you’ll find guidance you can trust.
2. Be grateful for this opportunity to reinvent, and be honest about how unhappy and off-path you’ve been. Make a list of the secret career dreams you’ve stuffed away because you’ve been so exhausted in your old career.
3. Remember who you really are. Chances are good that you haven’t been living and working true to your authentic self and what you came here to do – or you wouldn’t have hit this bump in the road. Stop hiding. Claim your real talents and gifts and realign your work so that you’re making a living directly from those talents.
4. Look around you at this new world and ask: What needs do I see in the world that inspire me to take action, think out of the box, and use my gifts to make a difference? (Whatever idea excites you most is a clue to your next career.)
5. Stop asking: “Who do I think I am to try to a new career?” Start asking: “Who do I think I am to ignore the work I came here to do? Who do I think I am to ignore the gifts and talents I brought with me? Who do I think I am to ignore the purpose of my life story?”
6. Surrender what you know. The new direction reveals itself only when you’re open and have let go of your old story. When you have a new idea, take one baby step at a time and surrender the outcome. The rest will unfold gracefully as long as you don’t get in the way.
Frederick’s books such as Dancing at Your Desk, and her career sessions and teleseminars, provide powerful tools that help people align their lives with their mission to find true success and abundance.
I hope you’ll catch the show this Thursday, January 7th at 1pm PT/4pm ET.
