¿Qué hacer si estás considerando un cambio de carrera y quieres navegarlo conscientemente?

The first major step in considering a career change is to acknowledge that those feelings have surfaced. There is a reason why you feel the way you do. However this may look like for you, take an intentional and planned amount of time for yourself to reflect, meditate, and connect with your intuition. When you re-align with yourself on the clarity of your values, passions, and goals, then the practical steps will also follow. Be kind and open to yourself during the process!

To navigate a career change mindfully, consider your values, strengths, and aspirations. Reflect on your values and goals, assess your skills, explore career options, seek guidance, set clear intentions, create a transition plan, manage finances, practice self-care, stay open and curious, and trust the process. This approach ensures a successful transition to a new career path that aligns with your values and aspirations. Stay true to yourself, trust the process, and celebrate your progress.

One thing I’ve considered helpful before considering a career change is it’s important is to consider what the future could look like in your intended career. It’s not much help to pursue a role that’s seeing diminishing opportunities. “Consider the potential growth of the position, company or industry you are considering Switch to. “Before committing yourself to a career change, it’s important to analyze the industry trends and future projections to ensure that you’re making a sustainable decision.” It can also be helpful to determine whether your current skillset could easily transfer to your new role.

Your career should reflect your values. Be mindful in your career research, as enhancing your personal well-being may be far more important to you than material gain. The right opportunity will come to you with the right intention and mindset.

Once you have had your first job interviews, listen to yourself. How was the atmosphere during the interview? Did you feel well understood? Did you have the feeling that you had to pretend or were you able to be who you are? For example, I always realized that an employer didn't suit me if they didn't laugh at my little jokes in conversation. I'm a positive person who likes to laugh - if someone doesn't like that, I'm not the right fit for them. Being who you are and being accepted for it is the perfect basis for then weighing up the "hard facts" to see if they also match your expectations.

Career transition can be stressful and it's totally understandable. You can make a smooth shift if you have a mindful strategic plan. Take your time when transitioning from one career to another. You don't want to rush things and end up being overwhelmed. Plan what things to be done before the transition such learning new skills, updating your resume, networking with new people for opportunities, etc. Do one thing at a time and make the process enjoyable.

Resilience and fortitude are positive attributes that typically result from uncomfortable lessons learned. While personal growth is not always pleasant, if it is approached or 'Surrendered to' correctly, the individual will gain invaluable insights and empowerment.
