The Secret to Goal Setting and Driving Your Own Career Bus

Published on July 16th, 2008

I admit that I was a bit skeptical when I first read the hype surrounding the book and movie The Secret. However, upon reflection, I believe the ideas in The Secret can be useful and empowering to job seekers.

For those not familiar, The Secret involves the belief that the universe will send you what you ask of it. In other words, believe it and it will come. Entrepreneur, public speaker and business coach, Jane Pollak suggests actually writing down your goals and carrying them with you on a daily basis. She notes in her blog, Leading, “That act alone has made enormous differences for me personally as I continue to meet my goals.”

So, as we move deeper into the dog days of summer…Consider listing some goals and carrying them with you in your wallet. Take a look at them when you’re waiting in line or stuck in traffic. You never know – this type of focus could be the difference between achieving your goals and staying stuck! Drive your own career bus!

    It’s an act of courage and faith to walk this path, Miriam. Not one for sissies. I do it on a daily basis and have a track record of success and happiness as a testament. There are no guarantees. I’d rather step out on this divine road than one paved with doubt and skepticism any day.

    Jane – Thanks for your comment and thoughts! I agree that doubt, skepticism and “woulda, shoulda, coulda” attitudes can only lead down the opposite road.
