Happy Anniversary to Me...3 years blogging

Happy Anniversary to Me...3 years blogging What started as a side project (and technically still is), has become one of my greatest loves! This is post number 658. Cant believe you missed that many huh?   You can always subscribe to get these emailed to you (Subscribe to Guide for Lifetime Career Navigation by Email ) or Subscribe in a reader. I am by no means a great writer or SEO guru.   I am an admitted hack, but I am having a great time. As I mark this milestone, it is about time I come up with a positioning statement for my business and really focus in on my core strengths.   So, here it goes: Hannah Morgan is a no-nonsense career consultant and strategist directing aspiring leaders toward a better career.   She delivers guidance with a blend of tough love and compassion to inspire her clients to proactively pursue their goals. Ive written a lot about pitches, elevator speeches, and positioning statements, however, doing myself is much harder.   I wrote recently about the help I received from trusted friends in further developing my statement and I hope you too enlist the help of people you respect to develop your own. Milestones are important and deserve some self reflection.   In your search, youve had milestones.   Perhaps you are measuring months.   You may be measuring contacts.   Some of you may even be notching your belt by rejections (though I dont recommend that).   It is so important to savor your successes.   Look at how far youve come and the progress that youve made.   No one said finding your next job would be fun or fast so stop expecting both.   Sure, you can have some fun along the way, you may even find that youve had time to pursue family or a hobby in greater depth.   That is a milestone.   Cherish these moments, but, dont let them side track you. Now, move forward with your pursuit of something that truly matters.   Find your calling.   Pursue it relentlessly and with passion and optimism.   It is there, you just need to find it.   To do so, use every resource available.   Spend your time doing the things that really have an impact on your search- meeting with people. Get out of your house.   You wont find a job waiting for you there. What has been one of your significant milestones?
