Need a career change?



It's been my observation over the last 20 years that people typically between the ages of 35 and 42 experience a desire for new growth. Prior to such time we educate ourselves, cultivate opportunities and celebrate the process of reaching a nebulous goal of guaranteed security. Some of us are even of the opinion that we could retire at 40 without any help from the lottery or an unexpected windfall. As we enter this mid-life transition reality begins to close in on us and we find that the teaching job or the MBA that we had hoped would make life more respectable and interesting, simply falls short of satisfying what we are about to become. At the YOU Consulting Group we have certified consultants trained in a process called The Cycle of Life and this allows them to coach each phase of a client's personal growth with compassion and accuracy. If you are feeling restless, do not despair... you are right where you're supposed to be. Give us a call and allow us to answer some of the questions that may be confusing to you right now. It can be very disconcerting if the thoughts that occupy every minute of your day are riddled with the need to be growing in a different direction or are simply interfering with the quality of your performance. At some point, the need for change seems to push beyond the necessary boundaries of what is acceptable and you find yourself doing things and considering options that a few years prior may have seemed absurd. Never say never. If there is one thing we can count on, it's change, and if you are in this interval and experiencing discomfort... guess what? It's time for a change! Don't be afraid. Don't let money matters or outside influences keep you from growing naturally into what you were meant to be.Simply Trust in Y.O.U.!

LUCK




I don’t believe in luck. In Vegas, http://www.visitlasvegas.com/, we call it gambling, but the casino owners call it gaming, because to them, it is a game, and they build their business model around it. No one builds their business around luck. There is a quote attributed to Thomas Jefferson that says, "I find that the harder I work, the more luck I seem to have." Several golfers and business people have even taken versions of the quote.

My definition of “luck” is… when preparation meets opportunity. Preparation, you have total control over, and the opportunities, I believe are divinely guided. When one meets the other, good things happen. It is you doing your part to meet a blessing that comes your way. First of all, know yourself and prepare. You can find out a lot about yourself by visiting http://www.yougrp.com/ and taking the survey. You can get a translation and a personal consultation which will tell you how to prepare for this game called life. Prepare diligently, and then open your eyes to the opportunities that are all around you and take action on them. That’s what separates the superstars from the also-rans. Luck has nothing to do with it.
