How's that working for you?

Bills to pay. Orthodontia. Mortgage. Car payment. School loans. Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go.*

"How's that working for you?" I first heard that phrase on a radio "shrink" show. The caller was talking about how they had been dealing with a dysfunctional mate and the host asked the question. Obviously it wasn't working so well or the person wouldn't have aired their laundry for a national radio audience. The host then asked, "What are you going to do differently to change the situation?"

So, how is your work "working for you?" Are you earning lots of money, enjoying harmonious relationships with your spouse and family, getting adequate leisure time and a joyful heart? No, you say? Well, then, what are you going to do differently to effect the changes you want? You know the cliche definition of insanity - doing the same thing over and over but expecting different results. Not gonna happen!

We all make choices. Will you choose to make a difference in the life you lead? Will you take the steps to research yourself and find your "heart work" (you know, the work that makes your heart sing)? Making confident career choices is easy but it takes some heart work.

Ready to sing? Talk to me.
