68 | How To Identify Your Career Goals And Share Them With Others


Listen Later

Welcome to Season Four!   This season we are going to focus on opportunity. How to have the confidence when opportunity comes along, having the skills to seize it, plan for it and best of all, get the most out of it!  Every episode has specific and actionable tools and advice. 

We also have some amazing guests this season who all have similar stories of finding the opportunity when really they wanted to dive deeper into their current path or exploring a new career path.  It's amazing the journey these folks take and I'm honored they share it with us.

In this episode, we will focus on creating strong goals that you can achieve and be excited about.  It’s easy to say you are going to do something but if you don’t really understand WHY you want to do something, what that goal ACTUALLY should look like and HOW you are going to get there so you won't be stuck every time.  So today we focus on making you sure you are setting the right goals and have a plan to achieve them!

You’ll specifically how to:

  • Identify your goals
  • Create tangible goals
  • Identify real and perceived blocks to work through 
  • Share your goals with others to help both achieve them and create accountability
