Mine for Gold, within you by Smriti Goel
Overview
Do you dream about a better tomorrow?
Are you raring to give expression to your skills and talents?
Do you wish to wake up to a feeling of excitement every day?
According to Timothy Gallwey, a famous tennis coach, ‘the opponent within one’s own head is more formidable than the one the other side of net’
To get back to a career that will help you realize your dreams and desires, there is one thing you need to do first.
You need to address the demons within.
Is our confidence shaken by what others think or say about us? Nope, that feeling of inadequacy rises from our internal response to those comments and judgements. It is the defeating self-talk and the repetitive pattern of thinking and behaviour, which can derail us in a matter of seconds.
I took a 6-year career break to look after my children, re-settled in many cities across countries, re-starting my career time and again. I understand how daunting it can be to find your feet and be part of the mainstream again. When I went back to work, I realized that in 6 years of motherhood, I had built strengths that no corporate could ever teach me.
#MarcusBuckingham, founder of the strengths revolution, talks relentlessly about identifying your strengths and cultivating them intelligently. I used my finely honed nurturing instincts to nurture my teams, my peers and was considered a senior resource even though my designation was not.
I became a student of what I didn't know. It was not easy - it required perseverance, patience and ambition.
Invest in yourself, imagine the future you want, #MineforGold - it IS within you!
