Pivoting within your career can be highly rewarding. The injection of new energy and change can resurrect your spirits

Change is as good as a holiday, and in this case a nice prolonged one. The benefits of learning something new, in the end I can't think of anything wrong with pivoting within your career even going from bartender at a strip club to stripper could be just what you need.

  1. Understand your fear
    Understanding why I don't want to do something has always helped me either discount it as irrational or to better approach it. All fears have a root and once you are able to just identify it then it becomes so much simpler to just move past them or at the very least give your enemy a face.
  2. Look for opportunities
    I don't actually actively do it and more relating it to facing your fears, since I tend to fear something because it may be an opportunity which in itself is always a risk, once I have identified my fear in regards to a potential opportunity I am then able to view it as such.
  3. Think forward
    Just because I feel like I have moved past one obstacle or even do not foresee any obstacles which is ,highly unlikely, I feel it is always important to think ahead. Some say it is overthinking but I tend to see it more as self-preservation, I am very much into self-preservation, it is best to not waste an opportunity after going through all the above just because you did not think outside the box and beyond for a split second.

nice!!! :) you and @penderis really rocked that title image :)

really love this and will probably need to go back and read and re-read it hehehehe a lot of thing resonated with me and... when you read my dito (yep - i submitted it early hahaha) you'll probably see why ;)

great job @calumam!!!!!

The title image was all @penderis, I just voiced the idea :D

It's definitely one to come back to again and again, I wanted to make it resonate with what we're trying to do with BuddyUP. 23 more to go!

I'll check out your dito and let you know what I think!

This was an interesting first episode and I will be looking forward to the next Criterion episode. I thought it was well-presented and I had no troubles comprehending, until I got down to turning fear into your tailwind.

I had to read it again. Fears are a natural instinct and they do provide a certian usefulness, especially when they occur in the present moment. However, in the anticipatory fears, we tend to hold back. Fears, I suppose, would be mainly related to changes and the unknown. Noticing that the best things also come out without knowing the result beforehand and they come with change, therefore, it does make sense that we should be motivated to do the things we fear. I still have my reserves about this notion. One man's truth may not be mine. Maybe I will come around and be able to understand this concept more fully eventually.

Well, turning fear into drive is a lot like using the cortisol from stress to take action. Rather than procrastinating and slowing down, it's wise to flip the script and use that chemical injection for good and strides forward.

Everyone is different for sure, it's just how you perceive doubts and fear. Fear can be one end of the spectrum or the other :)

Like your format!!
