“As women, are we focused on the job or the care

“As women, are we focused on the job or the career?" is a powerful contemplation. I know so many women who have stayed in the same position, the same role for more than 5 years, sometimes sacrificing their career advancement for the sake of the team, the organization, or their partners and families. In one of the organizations, I worked for, we called them ‘strong contributors’ as they were very good at their work. The irony is they were not considered ready for promotions.

I was once a strong contributor. Every time I thought of leaving for a better offer - I would try and rationalize the situation by saying "I love my company, I like the people here" or think about the long-term benefits of having built the network in the organization while staying here so long.

I dreaded that, I will have to start from scratch if I were to move and I didn’t know if I would get the same flexibility that I got there. Post-reflection, I realized this was half true - though I was comfortable I had my frustrations too.

If you can relate to this and want to try something to change the situation, here is what you can try:
➡️Analyze the intent — Identify all the activities that you are doing today and check for alignment with your future vision. (If you don’t have one, it's time to reflect on why it is important).

➡️Visualize them and prioritize the work based on what you’d like to maintain (the ones that are relevant for your role) and develop (the ones you will need in the future).

➡️Get yourself a Mentor. You may need more than one based on your needs.

➡️Create a Board of directors for you as a product, basically your list of stakeholders – your manager, your peers, your partners, clients, direct reports, etc. and identify your potential allies. Declare your intent, and seek input and support.

➡️Manage your Power and Presence – this has been the most difficult one so far for me. Start by showing up, being intentional, and building your own space in the room.

Our thoughts play a huge role in the way we percei

Our thoughts play a huge role in the way we perceive situations and so will our actions. Having a positive mindset and believing in oneself is really important in today’s fast-changing world.

When things go wrong, it can be easy to get discouraged and feel like we don’t have it us. But by having a growth mindset and believing in your abilities, you can accomplish great things!

As Carol Dweck suggests, Add YET to your life and change the way we see things!

👏Instead of I just can’t do this, say I can’t do this YET..
👏Instead of I am not good at anything, say I am not good at anything YET..

It gives you an opportunity to believe there is a way to get there and I am yet to figure it out. And you will start taking action. Remember, everyone makes mistakes and it is an opportunity to learn in the journey called growth.

✅Your mindset defines your reality. Challenges are inevitable and success is an intelligent choice that you can make.
