- Don’t be afraid. Change is hard. Change is difficult. But change is not impossible.
- Don’t do it alone. Find a friend. Hire a coach. Find someone who has your interests at heart.
- Turn down the volume on those "inner voices. Don’t listen to the "experts" unless they really are experts. It’s your life. Period.
- Get honest feedback. On the way you look and the things you say. Remember, perception is reality. Is the feedback positive? Great. Are there concerns that hit a nerve? Work on them.
- Answer the question: What do I really want? A different job? A new career path? A social life? Someone to love?
- Do you have a road map to get there? Do you know someone who does? Ask for help.
- Work from the outside-in. Life is easier when we’re dressed for success. Wear a "uniform" – simple, elegant clothes that connote confidence, assurance and poise. Wear the uniform everyday. Consider it "protective armor".
- Now work from the inside-out. Try something new. Like initiate conversation with a stranger. Or ask your boss if you could discuss a vertical move. Or sell your house and move back to the city.
- Remember, we’re all characters in our own novels. If the story you are writing is unsatisfying, rewrite it.
- Life is the greatest adventure ride ever invented. A merry-go-round is pleasant, a rollercoaster offers speed. If you’re lusting for adventure, find someone or something to unleash your inner momentum.
There you go.
