7 Reasons Why You Havent Discovered Your Dream Biz (And What To Do About It Today) - When I Grow Up

7 Reasons Why You Havent Discovered Your Dream Biz (And What To Do About It Today) - When I Grow Up I have 10 years of coaching hours under my belt with hundreds of clients, and I’ve heard some things. Actually, I’ve heard all the things when it comes to  creative, multi-passionate women discovering, igniting, or achieving their dream careers. And you  are no exception. {I mean that in the best way possible.} The reasons why you haven’t hit on it yet aren’t new or unique, and I hope by laying them out below it makes you feel seen, less lonely and totally freakin’ ready to take some action. Here are the 7 main reasons youre not discovering your dream business, in no particular order: You have too much going on. Whether it’s by choice or not, you have to say No to one thing in order to say Yes to something else. As an extreme extrovert and a recovering people-pleaser, I have total FOMO and always wanna do all the things…but my body and my family shows me otherwise. Look around and see what you can say No to in order to say Yes to moving the needle on your dream business discovery a few times a week. Whether it’s your after-work happy hours, SVU marathons or spin class, remember that you’re working on your long game for long-term happiness! You’re feeling Resistance like whoa (which includes perfectionism, procrastination and more). The War of Art by Steven Pressfield (so recommended!) classifies everything that’s keeping you from following through on your creative pursuits as Resistance. Resistance only exists to stop us, and the longer we don’t do what we’re supposed to â€" what’s calling to us â€" the stronger Resistance gets. Our only way to fight Resistance for the day (because Resistance comes back daily, no matter what)? Do. The. Work. Even if it stinks. Even if you throw it all out. Even if it’s just no good. If you put the work in, Resistance is defeated another day, and those Vampire Voices that suck the good stuff outta ya get softer and softer. You haven’t been struck by lightning or tapped by a fairy to tell you THIS IS IT! I can promise you: you won’t feel like Snow White dancing in the forest and singing to animals when it comes to clarifying the What of your dream business. Usually, there’s fear and lots excuses â€" with some excitement thrown in that you may even decide to ignore. Just because the angels aren’t trumpeting and the “Hallelujah” chorus ain’t being sung doesn’t mean you haven’t found It. The War of Art says, actually, that the closer you get to Doing What You’re Meant To Be Doing, the louder Resistance gets. So it’s actually a good thing when you hear those excuses being shouted at you! It means Resistance feels so threatened by you, bad-ass. You’re not convinced that any of the ideas you’ve come up with are what you’ll want to do for the next 10-30 years. Is it worth starting even when you’re unsure whether it’s “right” or what you “should” be doing? Of course! In this case, the only wrong thing to do is nothing at all. Start somewhere. Anywhere! And keep going. Following whatever makes you feel scared and excited always leads to The Land of No Regrets. You’re ashamed of your new choice and/or don’t immediately identify with it. When I initially heard of life coaching, back in ’06 or ’07, I immediately lit up. Here was a way for me to help others, use my communication skills, and build relationships without having to go to grad school and/or listen to upsetting or depressing stories that my clients tell me (so much respect to the therapists and social workers who do that!). But the reputation that life coaching had then â€" think hippies who read crystals and don’t wear deodorant â€" made me feel totally disconnected. It took me months to reconcile the type of coaching I wanted to do â€" and how I wanted to do it â€" with the stereotype of a life coach. You think it’s too late or you’re too old. It’s not. Don’t believe me? Think of how many years left you have until retirement. Wanna suffer through that? I thought not. You’re afraid you’ll look like a big flake if you decide to start a business now. I had 20 jobs in 7 years (pre-2007!) and still got hired in Corporate America and have been taken seriously as The When I Grow Up Coach (I made the Top 100 Websites For Your Career by Forbes, dammit!). Nobody has a linear career, so shed those expectations and jump on the roller coaster, taking transferable skills and life lessons along the way. If you’re ready to pull the trigger, hit the Commit button, and go down the unknown road towards your dream business, then be careful what you wish for! Here are 5 things you can do today that’ll get you started:   Change your mindset. It’s hippy-dippy but absolutely true: If you don’t believe you can make a grown-up living with a business you love, then you won’t. I honestly believe it’s the biggest roadblock keeping you from your dream business, and once you shift your mindset from Can’t/Won’t to What If, the possibilities open up. I hope it’s comforting to know that I’ve yet to work with a client who found their WHAT and then couldn’t find their HOW. There is always a way. Really look at your finances. I promise you that spending just a couple hours working with the numbers will be more empowering than you think. Even if you do some crunching and realize it’ll take you four years to save up the money you want in order to quit your job and be a Woman of the World (aka full-time entrepreneur), you’re then able to work from a proactive place. What can you cut back on? How can you put more in savings? What can you do in those four years (which’ll probably go down when you commit to cutting back and saving up) to make the career transition as comfortable for you as possible? In my experience, most of my clients realize they can make the transition earlier than they thought once they get familiar with their own numbers. Create your support system. It might not be that your loving family members and trusted friends don’t support you and want the best for you â€" they do! But they probably don’t understand your choice. Why leave a “perfectly good” job to do something that’s not guaranteed? Why “waste” your experience and start all over? These aren’t safe choices, and those who love us want to see us safe and secure. While I feel it’s important to loop your family in to your goals, plans and challenges â€" it can only help if you can count on them for support! â€" it’s also important to be around people who are like-minded in their own goals, plans and challenges. Thankfully, there are both local and virtual places for that, so you can choose how you best receive support. Be kind to yourself as you go through this identity shift. I’ve been hearing statements from my clients that go something like: “I don’t really like this idea of me being  ABC, but I can’t get it out of my head because XYZ.” They’re uncomfortable with the label of the thing they wanna do, not wanting to be seen as a “self-improvement person” or a “flaky artist.” I know this dis-ease ( on-purpose hyphen) first hand, when I resisted becoming a life coach because I did not want people to assume I’d read their aura or that I braid my leg hair. But once I realized that I could be the life coach for those who, um, also didn’t want their crystals read â€" and that being a life coach fed into my grown-up passions, skill set, values and priorities â€" then I bit the bullet and signed up for my certification. I still introduce myself as a career coach, though. ?? Notice your Vampire Voices. Vampire Voices are the voices in â€" or out of! â€" our heads that suck the good stuff right out of us.  Their why-do-you-think-you’re-so-special? questions and you-could-never-make-it-work quips are our fears articulated, and they keep us away from The Thing That Matters. That’s their whole purpose. But they also point us to what we need to specifically look at so that we can reach our goals. Does your Vampire Voice tell you that you don’t have enough experience for the new job you want to transition to? Then it might be worth looking at how you can build up your confidence in that arena. Does your Vampire Voice say that you’re not unique enough to stand out in a crowded marketplace? Then it might be worth talking to your loved ones about why they think you’re a special snowflake. I highly recommend writing down every Vampire Voice you hear around this dream business journey, and take notes on what you think it’s pointing you to. Which one of these resonated most with you, either now or in the past? What will you start doing today? Leave it in the comments and I promise to comment back with any questions, thoughts or resources that could help!

Writing a Resume Without Job Experience

Writing a Resume Without Job ExperienceThe majority of resumes don't have any job experience whatsoever. Most people think that it is important to list all of the skills and experiences that you have in your resume, but in reality it can be much more helpful to know what you don't have rather than what you do have.When you go into a job interview, you must be prepared to state your strengths and weaknesses with regard to the position you are applying for. A strong resume without job experience can make this much easier. One way to accomplish this is to list as many of the accomplishments that you have as possible and also mention any training that you have received.Another way to eliminate any job experience that you don't need to include on your resume is to add it to a separate document called 'personal statement'. It can consist of anything that you would like to put in the resume. You can include your thoughts on the matter or explain your reasons for not having any job experienc e. In addition to making your resume much more efficient it can also create a better interview.There are several ways to work around an absence of job experience in your resume. You can offer your spouse or another co-worker that works with you to submit your resume. In fact, you can sometimes make one of your colleagues do this for you. Remember that these will not get you a job and you might lose some respect from these people but it may help you get the job that you are looking for.If you want to include something with a job experience on your resume then it might be best to include one. Be sure to emphasize the most relevant job for the position that you are applying for. This means that if you are applying for a post at the local auto supply store, you will want to add information about the automotive work that you have done to the resume that you submit.It is also important to list your full name and the city where you live in your resume. In addition to this, you might consid er putting a brief statement of your work experience on the cover page of your resume. Remember that it is part of the preparation that you need to put in the application to get the interview.Don't feel overwhelmed when you are writing your resume. Make sure that you include information that you should have but don't include any items that you don't need.

11 Simple Things to Do Right Before a Job Interview So Youll Be in Top Form

11 Simple Things to Do Right Before a Job Interview So You’ll Be in Top Form The 15 minutes before a job interview can be harrowing. Job seekers are never quite sure what to do with that time â€" but experts suggest that you look in a mirror, take deep breaths, and do whatever else it takes to get focused and stay calm. “Those 15 minutes are your opportunity to get yourself into the right frame of mind, and set your energy and focus on who you’ll be meeting with, what you want them to remember about you, and what you want to ask them,” says Deborah Shane, a career author, speaker, and media and marketing consultant. Here are 11 things you should do in the 15 minutes before a job interview: Stay calm When you become stressed, your body releases stress hormones such as cortisol and epinephrine. Depending on the level of your stress, these can inhibit your ability to think clearly, said David Parnell, a legal consultant, communication coach, and author. “Ensuring that you remain calm, collected, and cool in the minutes leading up to the interview is necessary to avoid this hormonal elixir, and keep your mind clear,” Parnell said. Career coach Anita Attridge added that staying calm before and during an interview allows you to listen better and to stay focused on how to best respond to questions. “In addition, you are better able to think how you can best present your accomplishments in alignment with what is important to the interviewer â€" and being calm also demonstrates your ability to deal with stressful situations,” Attridge said. Arrive early, but don’t go inside Few things can shake you more than running late to an interview, so always arrive early â€" but no more than 10 minutes early. If you’re earlier than that, wait in your car or a nearby café, as being too early can place unnecessary pressure on your interviewer and start the meeting off on the wrong foot, Parnell said. Rita Friedman, a Philadelphia-based career coach, agrees. “It can come across as an imposition, as if you are expecting the interviewer to drop whatever he or she is doing to attend to you.” Be friendly to all receptionists and security guards When you do walk into the office’s waiting room (which should be about 10 minutes before your scheduled interview time), remember to be nice to the receptionist, security guards, or whoever greets you. “It’s very likely that he or she will be reporting back to the hiring manager about how you behaved,” Friedman said. Hopefully, you were planning on being friendly anyways. Decide on one or two things you want to be remembered for What makes you different from other applicants, and what do you know the company is looking for? Project management, communication savvy, or another skillset that sets you apart? “Keying in on a few things that will impact your memorability and likeability is a smart way to approach the interview,” Shane said. Stop rehearsing You don’t want to use this time to over-prepare or rehearse responses, which can make your conversation seem scripted and not authentic. “You want to know your stuff, but remember your interview is a conversation. Trust that you know what you know, and that the interview will take on a flow of its own,” Shane said. Breathe Feeling nervous? Try a breathing exercise. This will help with the first tip, which is to remain calm. “Counting your breath is one of the most immediate and impactful techniques for calming your nerves,” Parnell said. “Simply focus on your breaths, counting each until you reach 10, and repeat.” Focus on your posture Sitting up straight, along with maintaining eye contact and minimizing your use of filler words, communicates that you’re confident and professional, wrote Fran Hauser, author of “The Myth of the Nice Girl.” “You’ll come across as looking more confident and poised,” Friedman added. Business Insider’s Erin Brodwin wrote on exactly how to maintain great sitting posture: First, sit at the end of your chair (that’s right, don’t rely on your backrest). Let your body go into a slouching position. Now, try to sit up straight, accentuating the curve of your back as much as possible. Hold this position for a few seconds. Next, release the position a little bit. Be sure your feet are on flat on the floor and your shoulders are relaxed, too. Don’t check the news, your email, or social media Now is not the time to read up on political news. You may hear or read something that will get you all worked up, Shane said. Then, you’ll be distracted and harried rather than calm and confident. Briefly review your notes, but don’t do any additional research You should be done researching, preparing, and rehearsing. But if you made any notes for yourself, this is a good time to briefly look them over. “This is not the time to be using your phone to look up the company’s recent achievements or earnings report,” Friedman said. “Giving big numbers of projects a glance at the last second is a good way to misinterpret key information.” Look in a mirror Duck into a nearby restroom or clothing store to check yourself out in the mirror. “You may have left the house looking like a million dollars, but you could still arrive looking like a vagabond,” Friedman said. This is also a great time to wash your hands and make sure your fingernails are clean and your palms are dry. If you wore comfortable shoes and plan on changing into dress shoes, be sure not to do this in the office. Think happy thoughts This may sound cliché, but thinking of pleasant things that make you smile and feel good will help put you in the right state of mind going in to the interview. A smile can do wonders on how people perceive you. This article originally appeared in BusinessInsider.com.

The Curious Case Of Overtime And Productivity - Work It Daily

The Curious Case Of Overtime And Productivity - Work It Daily Arianna Huffington of the Huffington Post has an interesting take on the connection between sleep and productivity; especially the one-upmanship that goes on between the boastful people who cite sleep depravity as the secret of their success. If you also think making your employees work overtime will reap you benefits, you’re on a risky terrain already. It's okay if you’re compensating them monetarily, but it's outright criminal if you’re not offering any extra cash. So, is overtime really that counter-intuitive for growth and productivity? Here’s an attempt at exploring it: Do more hours guarantee productivity? It’s true, accolades are ushered upon those who put in extra hours. They scoop this time either from their sleep or recreation; furthering the chances of on the job burn-out by ten folds. During 2011, Harvard medical school came out with a study that in the United States insomnia costs $63.2 billion per year in productivity. Our modern day workplace ethos dictates us to do more work and faster. And, when an employee does it after finishing the task, s/he’s given more work with double the alacrity. An unstoppable, vicious circle. Cheri D. Mah, a Stanford researcher discovered that when basketball players (males) slept for 10 hours at night their performance got a real boost. There’s no dearth of examples that relate a good sleep with high performance, but that will only happen when time is utilized constructively. A lot of times poor utilization of time is the cause of low performance. Motivation definitely Plummets! A motivated employee is seldom a product of overtime and overwork. There is a direct relationship between the number of hours and motivation. The moment hours go up by 10% to 20%, the motivation declines. The further it goes up, the effects are even more devastating, resulting in disgruntlement. This is one of the biggest disadvantages of overtime. On the other hand, managers and employers with their constant ‘need to control,' always want more work in less time, making workers feel they’re always behind schedule. So, putting unrealistic targets in front of them is also a way to make them work extra. Organizations should instead find ways where employees work out of choice rather than compulsion. The quality of work suffers (and the efficiency does, too!) It happens eventually, if not immediately. Putting in extra hours and maintaining a good quality is nearly impossible for most people. Regular exhaustion, weariness becomes routine. Attention to details is squarely affected, so does meeting the standards and expectations. Also, since workers are marring their aspirations of pursuing personal interests and not spending time with their families, they would try to rush through the job. This is where mediocrity comes in. Employers want to see their workers perform consistently. But overworking never lets them go beyond regular. Besides anyone working overtime is less likely to be enthusiastic about learning new skills or undergoing cross functional training. Overtiming leaves them with enough reason to care only about their wages. Some considerations for every employer: As an employer of your small business firm, it’s always better to customize your ways according to the size of your firm. We’re using some facts to shed more light. In April 2012, Sheryl Sandberg, the COO of Facebook admitted to makers.com that she leaves office at 5:30 pm, to spend quality time with her family. Suggestion: Being Sheryl Sandberg may be an exception. But, as a manager/employer of your small business firm, leaving home before your employees might irk them to no end. Of course, it’s different in the hospitality industry, where people are scheduled in shifts and work hours and timings are pre-planned. Over there, using a workforce scheduling software can come in handy. Humungous layoffs during the 2008 Recession (close to 9,000,000 people in the U.S. alone) has left its scars. At that time employees worked overtime at same or less pay. To fend off any such injustice now, they’ve started filling lawsuits. Suggestion: Beware of getting into a lawsuit situation with your employee. It might not only bring you bad reputation, but can be financially very upsetting. Researches by Harvard Business Review say that only certain kind of employees, committed to certain kinds of professions and work environments are at a risk of sickness, injury or low productivity at some levels of long hours. So, it’s true that longer hours wouldn’t hurt most employees physically. Suggestion: In the U.S., there’s huge ambiguity over overtime laws, under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Besides the issue is forever contentious as many researches say overwork can hurt your heart. Final thoughts: Studies say once you’re up for 24 hours, the level of glucose that reaches your brain goes down (this explains your chocolate cravings). Similarly, the glucose lost by parietal lobe and prefrontal cortex is 12% to 14%. These are needed for thinking, interpreting ideas and differentiating right from wrong. So, let alone good performance, even error free work looks impossible. It gives rise to bad eating habits, turns into ill health followed by bad temperament and finally low productivity.

How to Negotiate for More Maternity Leave

How to Negotiate for More Maternity Leave Negotiating for mora maternity leave isnt something you may realize you can do. If your employer has a maternity leave policy, understand that it is elend set in stone. Instead, consider it a starting point for negotiation.In most cases, you probably have nothing to lose. The worst that can happen is that your employer says no and hopefully you dont feel you will damage your reputation or risk your job by simply asking for mora. If youre like most women, you didnt ask about your employers maternity leave when you started working. Most people dont know very much aboutmaternity leaveat all, which is why we wrote amaternity leaveprimer which outlines your basic rights here. If you find out what it is and youre unhappy with what your company offers, weve put together a checklist of strategies that will help you negotiate1. Try to Hold off on Telling Your Manager or Co-Workers You Are Pregnant until You Are ReadyBy ready, we mean that you understa nd what your companys maternity leave policy is and whether you plan on negotiating it. If that ship has sailed, try not to make any commitment or set any expectations about your maternity leave plan until youre ready. If your manager says something like, Will you be taking your maternity leave?, just explain that youd like to gather more information and set up a time to talk about it soon. This gives you time to do more research. Being prepared when you deliver your news helps everyone and makes you look well-organized and considerate.2. Decide What You Want, and Be SpecificRemember, you are negotiating with an employer and you must start with a clear goal in mind. What every woman wants will be different. You may want 8 weeks of paid leave when you are only entitled to 6 weeks. Or you may simply want four weeks of unpaid leave because you dont qualify for FMLA. One big factor in what maternity leave you want may depend on what your childcare options are. Some women may not want to put their children into daycare until a certain age, for example.3. Do Your ResearchFirst, consult your employee handbook and get the official policy from HR so you can confirm that your employer is offering you the minimum maternity leave required by law. If they are, you know anything extra you receive is something they are not required to give you. If youre koranvers youre getting less than what is required by law, then youre negotiating from a place of great strength.4. Do More ResearchAsk your colleagues who have been on maternity leave whether they negotiated and were able to receive unofficial deals. Even if they havent, they may give you advice and help you understand what is possible. Most working moms are supportive of each other and they may share important information. For example, they may know who was most helpful to them during their maternity leave, who in HR is the best person to ask about things, and other issues you may not have even realized may come up regardin g your leave. Try to find out what your companys competitors offer. This may persuade some employers that they should update their policies since companies have become increasingly generous with maternity leave in the past few years. Some of the information you are looking for may exist in our crowd-sourced maternity leave database. And you may (anonymously) contact Fairygodboss members who work at your company if you dont feel comfortable asking them directly.5. Determine Who You Want or Need to Negotiate with, and Size Them UpFor many women, their direct supervisor or manager will be their best advocate. If you can win your manager over as your ally, you will be able to approach HR or any higher-up managers together. HR may be unwilling to act without your boss approval, anyway and generally will be less inclined to help you by deviating from policies that they, in all likelihood, created in the first place. If youre uncomfortable speaking with your direct manager, you may have to speak with multiple people or perhaps go directly first to HR. Whatever your corporate hierarchy, simply remember that your pitch should resonate with them and their familiarity with both you and their responsibilities in the organization.6. Provide Your Manager with a Thoughtful, Detail Maternity Leave Plan First. After This Has Been Approved, Then NegotiateYour maternity leave plan should include how much contact you will maintain with the office during your absence, your dates of departure and return, what decisions and big milestones you will complete before/during/after your absence (including which colleagues and direct-reports will cover your certain responsibilities), and your plan for managing the transition both into your parental leave period, and then back. These are all things you should address in a formal proposal. You will be in a better position to negotiate more maternity leave if you appear to be well-organized and considerate of your managers needs. Put yourself in your boss shoes. What are the hardest issues and questions she will have about how your work will be done in your absence? Is there a colleague who can take over some of your tasks? Can certain projects wait until you come back? Will you finish important work before you leave?7. Make Your Requests in PersonWe hope this goes without saying, but if you are asking for special treatment, you will need to make your pitch like a salesperson would. Look your manager in the eye, and convince them you love your job, the company and are eager to come back to work after you have your baby. Its important to negotiate in person, rather than over-the-phone or email since you will be able to assess their position by seeing their unfiltered body language. Your more formal request should probably be written down and go into a lot of detail, but you dont need to go over all of that in-person. You can email or present them with the document so the conversation is focused on the big picture. In mos t cases, we think that HR should be informed after your manager has already approved your plan. To the extent that HR also needs to approve your agreement, we think its better for you and your manager to present a united front.8. Frame Your Argument in Terms of How it Will Help the Team or Your CompanyIts easier to frame your schwierigkeit as a joint problem or opportunity, than as a demand or threat. Although you and your baby are obviously the direct beneficiaries of your maternity leave, your company is not just absorbing costs. For example, making sure you are happy during maternity leave and adequately taking care of your personal life means you are much more likely to return to the company.Positioning your request as an exception to the policy can make some managers uncomfortable. Instead, you might try to set it up as an experiment to improve morale or retention. You may be saving the company quite a lot of money and time in terms of recruitment and replacement. There is a de cent amount of researchshowing that companies experience improved retention of women when they extend their paid maternity leave programs. To bolster your case and make it less about you, consider speaking to other co-workers (even those without children) to find out whether they believe the maternity leave policy would discourage them to return to the company. If they agree with you, you can point this out (without naming names).9. Accept That You May Not Get Everything You Want, and Actively Anticipate Alternatives or CompromisesYou should come up with a second best plan in case your ideal maternity leave situation isnt possible. For example, you might be able to get a more flexible or a reduced work-from-home schedule that will pay you some money during the leave and also help lighten your employers work. You also may be able to receive more unpaid time off than more pay. You should go into your negotiation with an idea of what you think is most achievable and be prepared to comp romise a bit. The following are some possible compromises you may be willing to propose in order to possibly receive more pay or a longer maternity leave job sharing with another employee for part of your maternity leave, part-time work, remote-working and telecommuting, flexible hours, and coming in for special events, seminars or meetings. While we believe that you should really minimize your work during maternity leave whenever possible, sometimes its not possible.10. Give Yourself a Reality CheckSometimes you shouldnt negotiate or expect much even if you do. For example, if the company is going through hard times and laying people off, you need to be sensitive to the overall context. If you are relatively new to the company, youve recently gotten pretty badeanstalt performance reviews, or dont get along with your boss, it may be unrealistic to expect that youll be able to negotiate for more.11. Stage Your Requests, if That Makes Sense in Your SituationIf you know you want more t ime off and may even quit if you are given more leave, consider waiting until towards part-way through your maternity leave to ask for an extension. While this may not always work, if youre convinced you do not want to return to your employer, you and the employer will have nothing to lose at that point if you part ways (though, note, that some employers will ask you to reimburse them for benefits or maternity leave pay if you do not return for a minimum period after your leave of absence).Fairygodboss is committed to improving the workplace and lives of women.
