Finding your hidden talents and skills from others - Hallie Crawford
Finding your hidden talents and skills from others I had a group coaching client recently say to me she didnât know what her challenges were or things she had to improve. And, she wasnât sure what her talents were either. Iâve been there, done that! Until we know what our talents are, itâs hard to define what career is right for us-and know how we stand out from the crowd. Here are 2 great ways to get answers to these questions-by seeing ourselves through otherâs eyes. This is a blurb from DailyOm on learning more about yourself: âBeing with others is a wonderful way to learn more about ourselves. When we see the world through the eyes of other people we become more open to new ideas as well as differing viewpoints, since we are sometimes bound to our own opinions about how the world should be. This sense of blindness lifts when we are with other people, for the more open we are to them, the more we are able to see the various parts of ourselves that we have covered up. Others become a mirror reflecting parts of ourselves back to us and allowing us to see what is both wonderful about ourselves and what we need to improve.â DailyOm.com Here are 2 examples of how you can effectively learn more about yourself: 1) A great way to uncover hidden skills or talents you donât realize you have is to ask people who know you well. Ask them this week, what is my greatest strength or what do I do better than most people you know? Listen closely to what they say. Take it in and donât argue with them. 2) Also, donât brush off compliments. We tend to do this in an effort to be humble. Guess what-you can be humble and also graciously accept a compliment. Let it in, say thank you when someone says theyâre proud of you, or when they say you have a talent for something. Smile and truly accept it. Hereâs to having a career you love!

I Started Waking Up at 5 A.M. Like Michelle Obama and I Noticed the Benefits Right Away
I Started Waking Up at 5 A.M. Like Michelle Obama â" and I Noticed the Benefits Right Away âThe early morning has gold in its mouth.â â" Benjamin Franklin A couple of weeks ago, I got my hands on âThe 5 a.m. Clubâ by Robin Sharma. A fan of his work â" his bestseller âThe Monk Who Sold His Ferrariâ is my go-to gift for friends â" I was enthused to read it, despite thinking a 5 a.m. start could never apply to me. My typical wake-up time has been 8 to 8:30 a.m. since I started working for myself full time in 2014. As a pretty productive person, I never thought there was anything I needed to change and had only ever woken up at 5 a.m. to catch a flight (feeling crabby as heck). Until now. After we heard about all the benefits early risers receive â" plus that fact leaders like Richard Branson, Tim Cook, and Michelle Obama rave about waking up early â" my husband and I challenged ourselves to do it. Weâre now on week two of waking up to a 5 a.m. alarm, and weâve noticed some rapid shifts already. Self-control skyrockets For me, this is the biggest one. As a coach, I know how self-discipline affects self-respect. Sharma says, âGetting up at dawn is perfect self-control training ⦠Increasing self-control in one area of your life elevates self-control in all areas of your life.â After nights when Iâd sleep restlessly, Iâd sometimes snooze till 9 a.m. (or even later) and was behind on my day the moment my feet hit the floor. Iâd switch stuff around, delay items on my to-do list for another time, and even incur ClassPass cancellation fees for my workouts. Now I look at my to-dos and feel relaxed because, hey, Iâm up at 5 a.m. each day â" thereâs tons of time! Trusting yourself to do something hard, like obeying an alarm clock that goes off when itâs pitch black and cold outside, is making my life easier. Iâm proud of myself every time I fire up the Nespresso machine at 5:05 a.m. Healthier habits develop (no 3rd glass of wine!) This is a happy and unexpected side effect. Because my goal is a 9:30 p.m. bedtime â" Sharma preaches that sleep is essential â" I donât stay out late or overindulge because I donât want to be tired the next day. It took two or three nights to adjust to this sleep time, and Iâm really liking it. Iâm switching dinners with friends to brunches wherever possible. And 7 1/2 hours of sleep seems to be enough for me, even though Iâm used to more than that. Capacity to create expands Producing has never been a problem for me. But getting additional hours and focus from an early start is like adding gasoline to your day. Applying Sharmaâs â60/10 methodâ â" working for 60 minutes straight without interruption, followed by a 10-minute refuel in the form of a quick walk or just making tea and sitting on the sofa â" has helped me complete projects faster. I found myself adding stuff to And I find myself grocery shopping and cooking at night (typically we eat out or order in). So itâs saving me money too. Clarity and calm ensue Sharma says that âdigital interruption is costing you your fortune,â and Iâm familiar with the depleted feeling of checking social media frequently throughout the day and constantly being reachable via email and text. Fully waking up first and applying the â20/20/20 formulaâ â" 20 minutes of moving, 20 minutes of reflecting, and 20 minutes for personal growth â" ensures you start the day device-free while setting self-directed intentions for the day ahead (not living from the inbox out). Iâve been spending the 5 to 6 a.m. âvictory hourâ journaling, tapping (an emotional freedom technique), goal-setting (another suggestion from the book â" writing down five things youâd like to achieve that day), reviewing my longer-term goals, and reading a few pages of a personal-development book. As Sharma says, âTranquility is the new luxury of our society.â In the tranquil early moments, youâre not rushing. Youâre not reactive. Youâre able to think clearly, instead of having a rushed, stressed mind first thing in the morning. Thereâs just something too about dawn that makes you feel a deeper connection to yourself. No one is calling you at that time. Most of the world still sleeping. Itâs clear thinking time just for you. While Iâm celebrating this challenge, I know that life as an entrepreneur without kids lends itself well to this 5 a.m. formula. I asked Sharma what heâd tell new parents, side-hustlers, and employees with nontraditional 9-to-5 schedules, and he said: âCustomize the 20/20/20 formula and 5 a.m. club to suit your lifestyle and read the chapter on the essentialness of sleep! Maybe you donât do it nights youâre up at 3 a.m. nursing the baby â" give yourself a break. Doing the 5 a.m. club only three days a week is better than not at all.â The 13th-century poet Rumi said: âThe breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Donât go back to sleep.â Understanding the magic of the dawn is ancient. And like so many of the thriving early birds out there, I like being in on the secret.

10 Smart Women Give Advice to This Years Interns
10 Smart Women Give Advice to This Years Interns Internships are an ideal way to get experience in an industry, learn how companies operate and network. Its also a time for students to take what theyve learned in their classes and apply it in the real world, decide if a career path seems right to them and gain valuable work experience. Some people even decide to take on internships well into their careers if theyre thinking about breaking into a new industry or getting back into the workplace after taking some serious time off.Studies show that nearly three-quarters of students enrolled in four-year colleges and universities take on at least one internship during their school career. As this years summer interns settle into their new positions, women whove been in the workplace much longer share their career advice. Heres what they have to say to this years interns, and what they wish someonehad told them when they were interns.1. NetworkYour connections will take your further than a ny resume or qualifications, says Melissa Chiou, a writer and content producer.2. Know Your WorthMy advice for this years interns, regardless of role or company size (but definitely extra relevant to the fields of marketing, communicationsandstartups) Go in with confidence says Kt McBratney, CMO of SeedSpark. Most companies and gruppes know that interns are valuable team members, so dont let outdated assumptions that youre just an interndim your shine before you even start. Know your worth and demonstrate the skills and insight you were hired to contribute. You are valuable,otherwiseyou wouldnt be part of the team.3. Be PresentBe present,says Emily Withers, Digital Marketing Specialist at ICVM Group. Do not use your phone at work ever Unless someone specifically asks you to check something with your phone, it should stay in your bag or pocket,or better yet, your car. Using mobile devices at work or doing similar non-work related things (ie reading a novel, doing a crossword) is one of the fastest ways to get the boot. It shows your superiors that you dont care about the company or about them.4. Hold Yourself AccountableWork hard, demonstrate everyday ethicsand hold yourself deeply accountable, says Jacquelyn Cyr of JC+CO. These are the actions that build trust and generate future opportunity.5. Go the Extra MileDear Gen Z interns As the most technologically advanced, socially-conscious, boldest generation of our time... I implore you to take those positive attributes and mixtur in a little old school work ethic of previous generations to make yourself stand out, saysJaime Sarachit, Head of Communications forThe way to prove yourself invaluable and turn that internship into a job or an excellent recommendation? Build solid relationships and trust among the folks youre working for.Come in early and stay late. Go the extra mile to get the job done. Speak up when asked for your opinion. Ask for extra assignments that will give you more experience. If you hear abou t a project where you could make an impact, raise your hand to help. Make yourself memorable by inviting the CEO or department head to coffee or lunch which is the perfect opportunity to get their words of wisdom and if youre bold enough, give them your unique Gen Z perspective on how to improve an aspect of their business.7. Own Your CareerAs a woman with 24 years of corporate experience, I would say the most important advice for women entering the workplace is to understand that you must own your career, says Rebecca Hott acertified professional coach and life strategist. This means that you should not wait on or depend upon your company to help you find a mentor or develop your career plan. The smartest thing you can do is walk into your new boss amtsstube and ask What is your biggest challenge?How can I help?Seek out your own mentors informally by connecting with people naturally.And learn all you can about the structure of the organization and how your skill set fits into the b ig picture.8. Become InvaluableBecome invaluable,saysSarah Zurell, chief brand officer,executive vice president and one of the founders of Pavemint. As an intern, you have the chance to become the person your boss cant live without. Take on new projects, share your brilliant ideas and shine like the bright diamond that you are Remember that you offer a fresh perspective, and that is valuable. Dont get discouraged if they dont always use your ideas. Take the notes, learn from themand try again. Thats why youre there Also, remember that the way you take criticism matters. Exercise grace in all things that you do, especially when its hard. Know that if your boss isnt being kind to you, it likely has more to do with their own stress levels than with anything youve done. Instead of taking it personally, take it as an opportunity to make their life a little easier and stand out from the rest of the group.9. Try New ThingsLet this summer surprise you, says Bella Kazwell at Asana. Try worki ng on something meaty and not necessarily what you think youll like. Are you a user interface whiz? Try out security. Do you think that writing proofs on a white hauptplatine is the best thing since sliced bread? See what its like to work with a product manager and a designer to solve a user need. Aim for breadth.10. EngageMy advice would be to interact with and offer your help to those who are in positions you would like to have in the company in a few years, says Stacy Caprio of Accelerated Growth Marketing. Get to know them, get to know what they like and dislike about your job to help you determine if its actually a good fit, and offer them help and assistance even when unasked, as this will help you gain relevant experience and even build a connection in the industry you want to enter in the future.Some of this advice will help interns set themselves up for full-time rides.--AnnaMarie Houlis is a multimedia journalist and an adventure aficionado with a keen cultural curiosity a nd an affinity for solo travel.
