Today's #TackleItTuesday. The day I encourage my followers to mentally tackle a career problem or challenge. Follow me here if you'd like to be challenged each week to take your career to new heights.
Years ago, I was asked a question that turned into one of the most important career coaching conversations of my life. The simple question was:
What's your fear of success?
In other words, what did I dread might happen if I actually achieved my career aspirations? In the video below, I share:
- How that simple question helped me unlock some things from my past that were holding me back from going all-in on the pursuit of my career dreams.
- Why it's the things you don't fear that are the real danger.
- How going after your career goals not only helps you, but enables you to help those around you.
Please don't let the fear of success be the reason you don't go after your career dreams. As someone who once did that, I can tell you pushing past the fear is truly worth it!

7yIf anyone's fear of success is accidentally or unknowingly appearing uninformed in your written communication, such as the above example of using P.S.S. rather than the correct P.P.S. to indicate multiple post scripts (P.S.), let's connect. Excellence is always intentional--you can avoid unintended grammar and writing mistakes with a Word Coach. Even when a word, phrase, or abbreviation is commonly accepted--such as "most importantly" instead of the correct "most important", if the decision maker you seek to impress knows the difference, they will notice your error. By the way, multiple post scripts are identified as P.P.S. for post- post script to show the writer added another "script", or message, to the original document. People may not recognize correct grammar or syntax, but they very well may see the errors. Even the accidental ones.
