Thanks to my colleague Steyn Bartels, a fleet trainer who is also a dedicated LIfe Coaching.
for guiding me through this enlightening process of reflection and re-anchoring myself my career path.
Firstly, He guide me to articulate my ultimate and short-term goals in my career :
In 10 years, land a position where I can make tangible #impact and enhance #sustainability
Short-term goal: secure a role that allows me to acquire essential skills and experience for my dream job in 10 years.
Secondly, with the concrete goals in mind, what steps can I take to achieve them?
Connect and engage with proffesionals who are dedicated in my desired fields
Proactively seek out and apply job opportunities.
Thirdly, why am I not doing the most of above steps? What’s hindering me?
Time Constraints
Feeling frustrated and waste of time when I get rejected from jon applications
Finally, what are the strategies that can change the above situations?
Turn the job search or application process into an enjoyable, fulfilling process by adopting the following mindsets
These attitudes are simple but MIND-BLOWING, As I have unconsciously started to personify myself when writing Coverletters, and present myself as what the company would like to see rather than who I really am, these states of ind help me a lot.
When I am true to myself, rejection is not a failure, but a detour that takes you to a better place.
Shout out for my first life coach experience with Steyn Bartels.
1. I was seeking personal growth and self-awareness. Before starting life coaching, I faced challenges like feeling stuck at work, lacking direction, and struggling with self-doubt. I wanted to overcome these obstacles and improve my overall well-being.
2. The coaching experience has been helpful in identifying my strengths and weaknesses. I've gained a better understanding of my values and goals. Specifically, I've noticed improvements in my self-confidence, communication skills, and ability to set realistic goals. While there's still room for growth, I feel more focused and happier.
3. I'd recommend life coaching to those seeking personal growth and self-awareness. It's a supportive process that helps you identify areas for improvement and develop strategies for success. Be open-minded, honest with yourself, and willing to put in the effort. Life coaching can be a valuable investment in your personal and professional development.
1. For me life coachng was mainly needed for my professional career and what steps to take to get where I want to be. Challenge for me is to understand what I want and where I want to be in 5 years and how to get there
2. The life coaching helped me to second guess my current job and how my own actions can have an effect on my career path. Ways to help me in being assertive in starting projects and steering my own career were changes I observed for myself
3. I think life coaching is a good way to rethink your steps and be critical towards yourself. It helps to have someone else than family think about the future and where you can make a difference in the world
