A Fitness Plan for your Career
- Take time out quarterly to take stock of what’s working well in your career, and what’s not.
- Focus on the next positive step rather than trying to make a 20-year plan.
- Ask yourself what you could add or change on your current job to do more of what you want.
- Consider learning new skills or trying freelance gigs as a way of discovering new passions.
- Keep a career journal to help you recall details and notice patterns in your skills and accomplishments.
- Build your reputation by writing or speaking publicly about new developments in your field.
- Expand your network beyond past and present colleagues to include others in your field, industry and region.
