We’re wired to belong. We want others to like us. Rather than risk rejection for being different, it’s safer to blend in. But in a professional sense, that can be a big mistake.
Amy, the concept of seasons of a career is very useful. I not only change jobs, but (hopefully) change/grow who I am. Thus, regardless of career trajectory (conventional, unconventional), I should be constantly growing personally and professionally. Hence, what I am capable of, my professional capacity, grows as I prepare to move forward into the next season of my career. Without seasons, I can become trapped into the same-old, same-old of no growth and professional stagnation (also referred to as "retired in place"). Personally, I'm in a new season - recently retired and purposefully transitioning to blogging and active on LinkedIn.
Totally #TeamGuac--the simpler, the better (although I do find a bit of red onion really pops!). Thanks for another inspiring post, Amy.
Ha ha! I knew I liked you, Candice! #TeamGuac FTW 🙌🏼
