Sticking to your core skills

A big part of feeling confident comes from feeling accomplished at what we do in our careers.

I read an interesting article in magazine which I think was called Psychlogy while I was waiting for my son to have his hair cut.

The key point I took from it was that if we are feeling that we are directionless in our careers then we should look at our hobbies and interests for inspiration as these will reflect our key joys and passions.

If we have a role as a mentor or supporting people in our private lives could these skills be used in the workplace or if we are always socialising and organising parties at home, could we use this expertise in our professional life as well?

I guess I have already ticked that box as I spend a lot of my own time with my own children including taking my oldest son's football team while professionally I am a teacher.

Anyway I will give it some more thought.

Cheers
