The Mental Offload Podcast

Are You Working On Your Job, or On Your Career?


Listen Later

What will the next step in your career look like?

Does the question itself make you want to sweep the whole issue under the rug? Or maybe you've been told that if you just keep your head down and work hard, someone will notice and you'll get the recognition you deserve.

This can set you down a dangerous path. One were you keep putting more effort, more time, more energy into your current job…and avoid thinking about the bigger picture: your career trajectory.

Let's talk about playing the long game: where you're working on your career as much as your current job.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why it's important to separate working on your *job* from working on your *career*, especially in a slower economy

  • The 4 things that matter to your career trajectory – your performance is only one of them

  • The things you can implement this week to start working on your career

If you're listening to this episode in May/June 2023, you can sign up here for The Mental Offload's career workshop.
