Day 5: Building Your Career Action Plan – Mapping Your Next Steps
Welcome to Day 5 of the Burnout Reset Challenge!
Welcome to Day 5! Now that you have a clear vision of what career alignment looks like for you, it’s time to get practical. Today, we’ll start building your Career Action Plan—a step-by-step guide to help you move toward the role that fits your strengths, values, and long-term goals.
Practical Tips:
Break Down Your Vision: Take your career vision from yesterday and break it into smaller, manageable goals. What milestones can you achieve in the next 6 months? 1 year? 3 years?
Identify Key Resources: What resources (skills, networks, tools) do you need to achieve these goals? Start building a list of what you need and where to find it.
Create a Timeline: Set clear deadlines for each milestone. The more specific your timeline, the easier it will be to stay on track.
Reflection Prompt:
Take 10 minutes to reflect on the following:
What is the first step I need to take to move toward my ideal career?
What resources or skills do I need to reach my next milestone?
How can I create a realistic timeline to achieve these goals?
Tomorrow, we’re going to dive into one of the most important elements of career growth: upskilling. We’ll talk about how to build the skills you need to thrive in your new role!
