“It is a terrible thing to see and have no vision.” Helen Keller
It is time to put down the magnifying glass used to scrutinize other’s choices and look in the mirror. Are you moving toward your dream, or someone else’s? Your dream career is out there, but in order to find it you have to know who you are, where you are, and where you want to be. Just as you must take an eye exam periodically to identify changes in your vision, you need to reassess yourself. To bring your true self into focus, you must remove the blinders that block your peripheral vision and get a full 360° perspective of yourself. You don’t have to do this alone, consult friends, family and colleagues and take their feedback to heart. Review old performance appraisals and 360° feedback reports from your employer to tease out patterns or blind spots you might have previously ignored. Time to take the blinders off and move forward to the fulfillment you have always desired. You deserve it!
