Take the Leap
After soul searching and planning, it’s time to take action. The first step is always the most difficult, but making a start will help build momentum. If reaching your goal means convincing others, strengthen your persuasion skills through online courses.
Seek Support
Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Most people like to assist those in need so use your network. Identify mentors, collaborators or stakeholders who can provide expertise, resources or opportunities to support your progress.
Persevere Through Obstacles
There will inevitably be obstacles and challenges along the way but don’t be deterred by them. Maintain a positive mindset and adapt your approach as needed to overcome hurdles. Keeping a journal can help you track your growth and remind you how far you’ve come. Most importantly, realise the value of learning from your mistakes.
Stay Open-Minded
Keep your eyes open to new avenues, new contacts, and new ways of getting to where you want to go. Try not to be so narrowly-focused that you miss out on unexpected opportunities that could bring you closer to your dreams.
