Editor's Notes
- it’s your career if you haven’t noticed, lots of people want to tell you what is best for you
- We think success is dependent on extending the passion you’ve already created to a broader audience.
- what’s not important to you?
- know what you want there are so many ways to define success don’t go with assumptions be honest with yourself what’s important to you what do you really want what is most important (because tradeoffs are inevitable) don’t assume it’s what everyone else wants life and career
- connect them to your values, to you give people the why make sure they know why it’s important to you, what it will allow you to do/become keep it open-ended
- confidants, personal board of directors they will make it better they will help you think it thought
- timing is everything people forget, but they will appreciate the reminder don’t be afraid to remind them of what you want (and what you can do)
- seems impossible to imagine a time when you’re feeling uncomfortable, but it will happen the 100th time you’ve written a brief the 1,000 campaign you’ve launched being uncomfortable means that you are doing something new it means you are growing & learning you should always feel uncomfortable about something you’re doing
- what’s next what are you curious about what would i like to try
- your attitude will determine your opportunity
- what does this tell me about who I want to be what does this tell me about who I don’t want to be
- it’s your career you can let it happen or make it happen
