THE ABUNDANCE PSYCHE

"I HATE WASTING TIME!" 

I've had this internal script for as long as I can remember. It is in fact one that has helped me be ruthlessly productive. But like every script, it's day has come to retire.  Why?  Because as I started @theabundancepsyche, this script led me to an Instagram overdose and business fatigue. Because I hate wasting time, if the baby takes 2 hours to go to bed, I am beside him and keep obsessing about numbers on Insta and email open rate and what not...   Because that's not wasting time. BUT SOMEHOW lying down beside a baby is!   I couldn't do it any longer. My brain needed rest and my family, job, and clients needed the best version of me. Not the most productive version of me.  It took me ages to figure out the mental switch from this script that has served me so well to the current one on the post-it note. But I'm committed to protecting my time and energy for those who truly matter.  Do you hate wasting time too?

WONDER HOW PEOPLE PIVOT IN THEIR CAREERS FOR BIGGER INCOME AND IMPACT?

They seem to have it all sorted out! Raises, promotions, and even career pivots come easy! Who are these people? How did they pivot their careers? And can I do the same?

Of course, you can! And it’s surprisingly “easy breezy”... well that’s what the feel it should be anyway. Because dream jobs are not meant to make your work 5X harder!

But, how do you get into a different job when you feel like you don't really have the skills for it?

Everyone seems to be talking about career pivots and you might be wondering where they are really getting the skills for because the university didn’t teach them that! Did they retrain? Take a bunch of courses? Or were they just lucky?

Today, I'm going to share with you the five-step method that will actually get your CV ready for the next job.

1. Identify your dream job

2. Figure out what are the skills that you need to be excellent at this job

3. Figure out your transferable skills

What are the skills that you already have, from your current life, from your previous jobs, from your previous life experiences, and put those into the bucket for skills I already possess?

4. Do a gap analysis

What are the skills they need? What are the skills that you have missing? Once you've done the gap analysis, go get the skills that you need to have on your resume for getting the job

5. The final step is actually getting your CV. And so important these days, actually getting your LinkedIn ready to be found for those jobs.
