Just a quick reminder that hierarchies at work are ARTIFICIAL and CONSENSUAL. 

No-one you work with has any ACTUAL power over you. 

• They might have a different title. 
• They might give and review your work
• They might make decisions about your progress at that firm,

BUT…

...

If you’re managing people and feeling a little frustrated…

Perhaps because they’re not doing it ‘right or don’t seem to ‘care’ enough…

This is just my reminder to you that …sadly… we can’t control other human beings. 

Take...

If you’re waiting to feel confident before you do the thing….

STOP WAITING.

Confidence is NOT NECESSARY to take action. 

Confidence is also not necessary to take action that other people perceive as confidence. 

I know that because over the last six years I’ve coached...

If you’re struggling with lack of motivation, you’re not alone! 

We all have periods where we feel like we’re just going through the motions. 

We start to ask ourselves why we’re even bothering. 

Isn’t there an easier career out there for us?!

Just a reminder that these 3 things are totally unnecessary for career success: 

1. Perfection
2. People being pleased with you 24/7
3. Someone else’s belief in you

Not necessary. And will ultimately hold you back. 

• I don’t know any successful people who are perfect. Zero. Not...

I know you probably work in a “fast-paced” environment. 

Where people frequently tell you things are “urgent”. 

They’ll look very serious when they do. 

They’ll 100% believe it. 

But I’m here to remind you, that “urgent” is...

Do you believe you’re not a confident person? 

You see people around you who (seem) super confident. 

You compare yourself against them - and make it mean you’re different. 

Not a “confident person”. 

I’m here to tell you you’re...

Do you ever hear yourself saying:

• I should have done a better job at …
• It was so stupid of me to…
• I can’t believe how lazy it was of me to…

Mean girl central. 

You’re a total bully to your past self. 

No compassion or understanding about what she was...

Just a quick reminder that your value is NOT just in:

• working hard
• being organised
• being a team player. 

I’m sure you’ve been praised countless times for those things. 

But they are NOT your only economic value. Not even close.
