Feeling overwhelmed? Read below 👇
When I speak to people and they ask me how I got to where I am, it’s easy to say just work hard but it’s more complicated than that.
It’s easy to get overwhelmed when you have a goal but don’t know where to start. I certainly felt frustrated, overwhelmed and stressed when it feels such a big gap between where you are and want to get to. So here’s a few tips:
#1️⃣ - Acknowledge how far you’ve come
It’s easy to look ahead without remembering what you’ve achieved so far. You’ve got evidence that you’re capable of doing great things!
#2️⃣ - Reach out
Speaking to people who’ve walked where you want to go is a great way to gain perspective and insight. Networking might sound very professional but see it as having a casual conversation to lower the bar. People are more willing to help than you realise!
#3️⃣ - Consistency
Big goals require lots of time to come to fruition. It took me 10 months of job searching before I found the role I landed at McLaren. Then 7 months of applying to F1 roles before I received the offer. Being consistent is key and not giving up on your dream!
If this helps or you have similar experiences let me know below!
To your success, The Career Engineer
