Motivation for Your New Job in 2022!

Let’s get a little woo-woo for a second. Close your eyes. It’s December 31, 2022. Where are you? How do you feel? What job is giving you some awesome vacation days? 

If you’re ready to feel awesome in a year with a great job, we need to get motivated now. 

        Welcome to your 2022 New Job Motivation!

I’ve mentioned this before but here we go again-

Your beliefs change your actions and we need the vision to give us something to believe in. 

So, first step, where do you want to be a year from now?

Now that little exercise from the intro was just a taste, but here’s how I recommend finding your vision for the year; 

Create a letter FROM your future self. Or journal as if it is December 31, 2022, and you are reflecting back on everything that happened this year. 

The key to this is you are writing as if what you want already happened. 

Will you feel silly at first? Oh yes, but I promise it’s worth it. 

You might be surprised at what comes up for you. 

And don’t just write about your career, what do you want LIFE to look like? I actually go through different categories and write about each. 

By writing this letter you are seeing vision of what you want, from there we need to have the belief that we can get to that vision.

If that vision feels pie in the sky right now, I get it. We need to change our beliefs so that we can move forward. 

Best way to change beliefs? Create affirmations.

Now it might sound woo-woo, but there is actual neuroscience that shows we can literally change our thought patterns. 

Write down affirmations around the person you want to be or the goal you have. 

And the key is to write in the present tense - not “I will” but “I am” 

“I am working in a job that brings joy and fulfillment”

“I am making enough money to cover my needs and invest for the future”

Read your affirmations out loud every day. Yes, it sounds silly, but we need to hear it for it to work!

Then, what are 3 key actions that person a year from now would take or would get you to that goal?

Write those down and start doing them!

By changing your beliefs and having a vision for a year from now you can start taking action in that direction. 

To help you get started, I have created 5 job search affirmations for you to print out and put on your wall or as phone wallpaper.
