If You’re Feeling Stuck, Frustrated, or Unfulfilled

We’ve noticed a trend with a lot of executives we talk with these days. They want more. Not money, titles, or power ? though those things are usually quite welcome! The theme we’re seeing is executives today are craving more fulfillment, freedom, and sense of purpose in their work.?

If you’re kind of bored, tired, and generally stuck in your career, you are in the same boat as so many we talk to every day.?

We get how you’re feeling. A career isn’t only about the work you do every day; it’s about your life. If work doesn’t make you excited, if it’s just what you do to pay the bills…that’s just a job, and so much less than you’re capable of at this stage of your life.?

If any of this resonates with you, you are in need of stepping out of your comfort zone and exploring what’s next for you. It will look to others as a career change, large or small, but in reality, it will be a life change.?

If something inside of you is saying you’re ready for something different, what we call your Next Great Next, you should listen. It means you’re ready for the next role and set of challenges, ones you embrace with zest, excitement, and passion. A role you can’t wait to get back to when the day ends.?

As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said: “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”?

Usually, it’s impossible to see where a change will take you, but if you are feeling like a change would be good for your life, you should give yourself a chance to “climb that staircase” to something that will fill you with excitement, motivation, and all kinds of rewards.?

Whatever it is you are interested in…do whatever you need to do to get started! Even if it’s something small, decide what your first step needs to be and get impetus by taking it. You will feel energized by possibilities and excited for what could be.?

Simply taking that first step is a mindset that unlocks career ? and life ? happiness.??
