Dive into your Career

This one will raise a smile...

In this episode, Gina has a quick conversation with her 4-year old about goals and goal setting (Yup... seriously!). The lack of filter from kids is so refreshing and the honesty about the goals that come to mind is funny.

An impromptu discussion with a child this age about  this topic is fascinating - and a great reminder that our goals can be as complicated and / or simple as we want them to be.

Where are my goal setting sceptics?! Don't look over your shoulder and the person behind you - lol - there's a very good chance that I am talking to you.

If you think that it is safer on your ego, heart and soul NOT to set goals because odds are you won't achieve them, I invite you to step out of your comfort zone and explore a different perspective. This is the episode for you if you can open up to another point of view. 

In "Goal setting sceptics... I am talking to you", Gina Visram (an ever optimistic goal setter!) talks about how even in a climate where a lot feels like it's out of our control, there is still scope to actively get some goals if there are things you want to achieve.

Acknowledge what scepticism may look like, reflect on how your scepticism is serving and benefiting you (yes, really) and  embrace the invitation to do something different.

This episode is inspired by a recent LinkedIn post in which someone told students to stop obsessing about internships, in what could potentially be described as a disparaging "oh, you're being so silly" type of why. 

You can get a fuller breakdown of the context in the episode but it made this week's topic a no brainer. "Are Internships really that important?"  So are they? Are they?
