When you’re feeling lost in your career, it’s not because you’re incompetent or unworthy. You’re just focusing on the wrong things.
You will probably never see your career path laid out neatly in front of you, with clear signposts and definite milestones. Don’t wait for that moment because it will never come.
Your colleagues aren’t mind readers. They can’t know you’re feeling stuck unless you tell them.
- And guess what? They’re probably too busy worrying about their own careers to notice yours.
- Don’t expect your manager to hand you promotions on a silver platter. That’s not their job.
- Their job is to keep the department running smoothly, not to plan your career for you.
If you’re serious about getting your career on track, start by setting clear goals. What do you want to achieve in the next year? The next five years? Write it down, make it concrete.
Remember, your career is like a garden. You can’t just plant the seeds and expect a lush landscape overnight. It takes time, patience, and consistent effort to see results.
So, stop waiting for the perfect moment to make a move. There is no perfect moment. The best time to start steering your career in the right direction is right now.

I was not impressed with resume writers
I used to be frustrated when I encountered candidates who had paid for a so-called resume writer.
The outcome often fell short, failing to attract attention or meet the requirements of Applicant Tracking Systems used by most job boards and employers’ career pages.
I’ve worked in Executive Recruitment – and that’s for a living – for the last 20 years. I think it is fair to say that in my job I have seen more resume and LinkedIn profiles than most people do in a lifetime.
There are resume and LinkedIn writers. And then there are resume and LinkedIn writers.
I see many writers who are good with words but have no idea what recruiters are looking for.
Why? They are writers, authors, journalists, and other good people, but they have never worked in the recruitment industry.
Inside this eBook, you’ll find page after page with practical tips that will make any update of your resume and LinkedIn profiles an easy Do-It-Yourself.
