Do you have a Career Avoidance Plan?

Check now if you have an Avoidance Plan in place

If the thought of undertaking career planning is putting you off, be aware of this. If you have unconscious plan underway, that is an avoidance plan, maybe you need to ask yourself a few questions.

Avoidance strategies usually come out of a reluctance to change, even if this means moving from an uncomfortable position. The status quo is very attractive, and the internal voices will tell you so…. Don’t rock the boat…. Better the devil you know…. The grass is always greener….

By undertaking the reflections and activities on the Career Redesign website, you can start to think through the cost of change and what you are willing to give up to have the career you said you wanted to actually happen.

You may also just need to find a way to keep your motivation and energy levels up. Is it a passive habit and inertia that is kicking in at this point? If you are starting to feel apathetic then setting well formed outcomes will help you refocus your attention.

    I'm interested in how we find ways to bring passion and curiosity into everyday lives. Embrace being restless, be inspired by others journeys and just have a go.

    Above all I value the awake, curious and creative mind that cross pollinates ideas to join the dots and build new ideas.
