OMG, I had know idea seeing without blurry vision could be so good 🤩

Listen, purpose is calling?

Is your vision blurred about the next step in your career?

Hit me up and let’s chat about how you step into your career and leadership to maximize your potential, purpose, and your pay.

My vision is clearer.

Development leads to growth. Growth leads to oppor

Development leads to growth. Growth leads to opportunities.

Many will miss out on opportunities because of the lack of humility to development.

I get it. Learning is vulnerable because we have to admit that we are improving.

In a society that promotes acting like you have it together makes it challenging to admit you are learning or need to learn and grow in an area.

Let me be clear, not everyone deserves this level of vulnerability.

However, insure pride is not getting in the way of learning that will expand opportunities and choices for you.

To learn more about how you can expand your choices and leveraging your learning that creates opportunities for you, I invite you to attend my free Facebook live event happening Friday at 11am central: The Role and Power of Self-Awareness in Career Transition on Lynn George Consulting- Career by Design

#lifelessons What I’ve come to realize is that

#lifelessons

What I’ve come to realize is that there are two kinds of people in the world:

👉🏾 One that lives like no one owes him/her nothing

👉🏾 The other lives as if someone owes him/her something

One lives in gratitude the latter lives with a sense of entitlement.

While both potentially will work hard, the one with a sense of entitlement works with resentment and bitterness. The other sees that past experiences made them stronger and are grateful for what they are becoming as a result.

The grateful one will forgive but not forget while the other accuses constantly whenever he/she is emotionally triggered.

I’m not about to preach this morning.

Which are you?

BEHIND SCENES:

I am not gonna lie, prepping for a presentation is one of my happy places 😁

I am the student of what I’m about to present to my audience. I can know a subject but when preparing, I am become a student and this deepens the learning.

I love that God has given me the ability to help people regain momentum to advance their careers (depth) but also be able to apply what I know and help other audiences (breadth).

Recently, a VP asked in an interview, “how did you get to this place of passion and purpose?”

It’s been years of pausing, reflecting, journaling, looking within, learning, making mistakes, embracing those mistakes, having people in my corner with my best interest give candid feedback, tweaking, crying,doubting myself, regaining confidence, clarity, then not so clear again,

The point is the path to destiny is not straight. It’s squiggly 🤣

Be curious about the journey.

Know your WHY.

Over the last week, we've seen a more than qualified and Honorable Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson navigate with grace what we, as women and black women, face on a daily basis in the workplace (questioning our ability, experience, and value despite her qualifications).

My firstborn son was the driving force behind my motivation as a teen mother.

I'll confess that I didn't always get it right, but knowing that someone was looking over my shoulder gave me the motivation to keep going.

They're watching (your children, the future generation of leaders,and aspiring leaders).

Earlier in my career, I didn't know how to deal with microaggressions and toxic situations as a young professional black woman but my faith helped me to persevere. WHY kept me going in the face of adversity and now I get to do what I love with joy and make the choice to go where I’m celebrated rather than stay where I’m tolerated.

Know your why and revisit it often.
#persevere

I am grateful and humbled by the women I get to work with daily and some within my network I don't work with daily but I see you. These women are trailblazers, champions, change agents, and warriors who pave the way for all women and girls to live in a world where women's day is more than just a trend but where we are celebrated regularly. Keep going, I see you, and I am honored to know you.

Happy International Women's Day

I spend my days talking to beautiful people who TALK about what their significant dreamwork is and have known it for years but have yet to take action to create it.

As a woman who had her first kid as a teenager and overcame challenges that would have made me a statistic (only around 2% of teen moms graduate college), I learned early on that what you desire in life requires intention and focus on getting it.

Remember in Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill calls this "definiteness of purpose" (read the book, excellent read)

Why do I share this, you ask? 👇🏾

Because some of us over-index on education because we lack confidence in our ability to influence, advocate for ourselves, and build relationships.

Let's discuss.

I grew up believing that you should not have relationships with people in upper leadership positions in organizations. Yet, it was my manager who advocated for my promotion and supported my goal to advance my career in workforce development.

After leaving the classroom in 2011, I took a small pay cut to return to corporate, and after a year, the company informed me that there was no money in the budget to increase my compensation. I was ready to walk, but with the support of my manager, I decided to advocate for myself. I did some salary research and lobbied for myself. That year, the outcome was an $8,000 increase. It may not sound like much, but that experience taught me a valuable lesson.

Learn how to influence in different situations to get what you want.

If you're not prioritizing relationships and growing your influence to do the work you've been put on this planet to do, you will get left behind.

The grave doesn't want your calling or your gifts.

👉🏾Take action
👉🏾Set goals
👉🏾Shoot your shot
👉🏾Grow personally and professionally
👉🏾Learn, practice, and grow
👉🏾 Pray and do the work

It’s not enough that you know the work you have

It’s not enough that you know the work you have passion for doing.

The key to “overnight success” is development.

Becoming impactful requires your curiosity, learning, and development.

Passion alone does not lead to mastery. It will be your belief about your ability that leads to mastery.

Affirm today: I am confident that I will succeed in what I set to achieve because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I am enough.

You will experience failure on your way to greatne

You will experience failure on your way to greatness. One of the best feeling in the world is doing the work you’re made for:

There were many failures before getting to this place.

We shun from failure because somewhere along the way, we adopt the notion that failure define us. So we hide and put on façades.

Failure is simply data on how to improve.

The quicker you get to this belief, you will stop fearing judgment of others, critiquing yourself so hard, and self-doubt.

Now, I understand that this is a journey that you have to be a willing participant because learning is vulnerable. You have to admit that you’re improving.

As I sit in rooms with decision makers and lean into what’s in front of me, because God did NOT give me a spirit of fear but of POWER, I lean in and open myself to learning and offering what I have to the best of my ability and effort. Not trying to prove anything.

Because,

What you seek is seeking you.
Rumi

Learn and be open to change.

Destiny requires it. #loveyourjob #liveyourpurpose #teachers #teachersofinstagram #purposedrivenlife #purposedrivenwoman #careercoach
