In career transitions, much like in sales, activity equals results. The key is focusing on what you CAN control. Many people limit their activity and, as a result, limit their success.

When building new habits, identify controllable actions. For example, aim to make seven networking calls a day. While you can’t control whether people call back, you CAN control how many calls you make! Shifting your focus to controllable actions boosts your momentum and helps hardwire new habits for success.🌟

⭐ TIP: Imagine you’re writing about a friend! Highlight your strengths in the third person, or ask those close to you for feedback.

Self-promotion isn’t bragging, it’s about confidently sharing your story and showcasing your leadership qualities. Read more on our blog: https://www.engage5w.com/our-blog/artofselfpromotion

Feeling stuck on content creation? Shift your focus to connection instead. Taking a break from posting your own content doesn’t mean losing momentum. Instead, use this time to engage with your community!

Leave thoughtful comments on your colleagues' updates instead of just liking and scrolling by. Share a friend's inspirational post and tag them, showing your support. Write a heartfelt recommendation for someone who's mentored you or been a key part of your journey.

Building genuine relationships online can be just as impactful as creating new content. Keep the conversation going by lifting others up!
