As you're entering into this new year, do not allow yourself to pause. We've probably been in that state of pause for most of 2020, not by anything that we could control, but this is not what we want to take into 2021 even though naturally that would be the direction.

So go ahead and put some career goals in place for yourself for this year. Allow resiliency to step in and take control, showing that you do have what it takes to pick up from where we left off in 2020 and move forward in 2021.

2020 has been an unprecedented year and if you're like me, you've had personal challenges, personal losses, personal difficulties, professional challenges, professional losses, unbelievable professional difficulties, but you're still here.

That's why, as I've been reflecting on this year and thinking about what it meant in my life, the word RESILIENCE kept popping up for me. That is my word for 2021.

I've talked about this topic a lot over time, but I truly believe that it's worth revisiting because it's something that sticks with us, and it can truly cripple our journey to whatever seated the table that we aspire to achieve.

The eighth reason why you may be stuck in your career is that you have not been able to demonstrate that you think strategically and that you have the strategic vision that you're capable of strategically thinking and developing a strategy.

Reason #7 of the 8-part series on the reasons why you may be stuck in your career is Not Ready for the Political Sharks! 

Workplace politics is all about is knowing who the key stakeholders are, how things get done, whether it's through relationships or through hierarchy. 

Every company has its own workplace politics. And then there are those people who decide that they're going to take workplace politics to another level. 

You need to learn how to navigate the waters and stand strong.
