I bet you are so done with survival mode, and you want to move to thriving. You are looking for some work-life balance, more success in your career, to be doing fulfilling work and enjoying the people you are working with. That's not much to ask for, is it? No, it's not! You have every right to have all of those things and what's more… It is possible! Keep reading to find out how!! Let us start with the question: Why haven't you attained all of that yet? My guess is that you have yet to find balance, fulfilment and confidence because your THINKING is getting in the way of your success. It's time to learn how to shift your mindset to the mindset that is actually going to help you get the success you desire!
Yet, my guess is instead, you doubt yourself!
Let me show you what I mean... 3 reasons why your mindset, or the way you think, is getting in your way. Consider these 3 "truths" and see if they apply to you. ![]() 1) Hope with no action
That blind hope alone is not going to change anything. In fact, it will leave things exactly the same way they are. Hope is the belief that tomorrow will be better than today. But hope alone doesn't change anything. You must take action to make that happen. ASK YOURSELF: Do I have hope without action? ![]() 2) Blame without responsibility
We spend a lot of time being in victim mode:
THINKING that way is not going to get you anywhere. That is blame, finger-pointing, or waiting without taking responsibility. You need to take responsibility for your growth and development. ASK YOURSELF: Am I blaming without taking responsibility? ![]() 3) Being random instead of focused We spend a lot of time taking whatever course shows up on our email. We tend to take the flavour of the month training:
THINKING that you should take whatever course is available might keep you feeling ok, but my dear, you are settling. THINKING this way keeps you in the tolerating or coping point on the surviving to thriving continuum — Ho hum, mediocre or just ok. Find out where you land on the Surviving to Thriving Continuum here But here is the problem, if you're competing to advance your career, and everybody has that same training, that will not make you stand out. Nor will it help you develop YOUR gifts, talents and strengths. You need to create your OWN learning curriculum that will grow YOU! ASK YOURSELF: Am I randomly taking whatever training shows up? If you want to make the changes that you're looking for, you need to take responsibility for creating your own personal & professional learning plan. You need to become response-able. If you didn't get the promotion, you could respond to that feedback. That's feedback. That's just information. I didn't get the promotion. So what is it that you need to do to get the next promotion?
ASK YOURSELF:
Maybe it's going and sitting down with your boss and saying, Tell me why I didn't get the promotion, what can I do to improve? That's taking responsibility.
![]() Curriculum mindset example # 1 GOAL: Create more work-life balance. PATH: I need to learn how to set boundaries Great, but how are you going to learn to set better boundaries? You just can't wish that you're going to be better at setting boundaries. You can't just hope that one day you're just going to magically feel more confident and be able to set better boundaries. That is hope with no action. You need tools to help you. TOOLS: In my mind, if you don't have a binder or book and a pen to write things down, you are not learning strategically. Your tools are: ![]() Curriculum mindset example # 2 Maybe you want to be able to maintain your composure during tough conversations.
