If you can dream it, you can achieve it.
My name is Blessing and I am pleased to take you through steps to adhere to in order to hit your dream job. It is very simple to look down on yourself and talk yourself out of going for that dream job. You might hear an insistent inner voice saying something like: 'Why would they want someone like me, with zero experience in that role? There are a lot of qualified people who would fill that role better than I ever could. Those kind of positions are way beyond people like me. I can't do it- I don't have the stature/gravitas/expertise.'
You know what you just did? You've just talked yourself out of giving this amazing opportunity your serious consideration.
So the first and important thing I would say about landing your dream job is that you learn to take everything that undermining voice inside your head says about your capabilities and suitability with a massive pinch of salt!
Rather, just stay calm and challenge the claim, because it's only fear talking.
Secondly, in order to up your career goals, take these simple tips absolutely personal:
1. Take opportunities to get involved in activities, causes or events that fascinate or mean something to you.
2. Grab chances to develop skills along the way-even when they are not related to your job.
3. Get outside your comfort zone every now and then-that's where the magic, and the learning, often happen.
4. Feel the fear of trying something new and do it anyway.
5. Trust that you will rise to the challenge because you know you have done just that in the past.
6. Despite those inner doubts, trust what other people see in you
7. Don't believe the voices in your head that want to persuade you to stay safe, small and stuck.
8. Recognise the shared values and culture of an environment that will offer you the chance to thrive.
9. Be confident that skills developed in a different setting are still hugely relevant.
10. Claim your career and life successes, and appreciate that the attitudes that allowed you to achieve them can be harnessed.
Know that career reinvention can happen, and that it can happen over again when it needs to.
You can never go wrong in your career path if you adhere strictly to these few important tip. In my next article I will teach you how to earn money from social media. Stay glued to this space.
