Some people want it to happen, some people wish it would happen, others make it happen! – Michael Jordan

In these uncertain times that we are facing,

When it comes to your career,

What do you want to happen?

What are you wishing could happen?

And what are you DOING to MAKE it happen?

When I was writing my first book five years ago, I realised that it is often assumed and accepted that people will have great ideas, perhaps a goal they set themselves, a challenge they want to overcome…

And they think about it, talk about it, want it to happen, wish it would happen…and yet…

Nothing happens. 

Why?

Because no action is taken.

It was no secret all those years ago, that I was writing my book.

I was working long hours in my role as a Sales Exec at Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

It took evenings and weekends for 8 weeks in succession, to complete my first draft.

Yet, when I showed up a few weeks later, book in hand, I was taken aback by others’ surprise, that I had published my book…

The responses I received were along the lines of:

“I know you were talking about it; I didn’t realise you would actually follow through!”

When it comes to being in integrity

Do you DO what you SAY you will do?

Or do you SAY what you will DO, and NOT follow through with the associated action?

When it comes to your career, or job search,

What ACTIONS are you taking to MAKE 'what you want' happen?

Or simply wishing that it would happen?
