If you’re desiring something different in your career, consider if you are wanting to take an incremental step or make a wholesale change.
An incremental step is where you want to do the same job elsewhere, or you want a more advanced position, or you want to progress within your organisation.
A wholesale change is applying your skills to a different industry or going after a new profession that may not relate to your current one.
It’s important to understand what you really want, as we can be anchored quite strongly to the path we’ve trod.
This can cause us to take an incremental step when we really want a wholesale change.
If you want a wholesale change, it may feel scary to abandon the path you’ve been walking, but you must appreciate that you won’t get to a satisfying position if you keep taking incremental steps.
