Welcome to 2007!

It seems like the change from one year to another year is more than just flipping a page on the calendar. For many people, it is a time of reflection, a time of new beginnings, and a time of resolutions (and broken resolutions!). If this sounds like you, what have you resolved to do this year? Lose weight? Drink less soda? Quit smoking? Exercise more? Get a new job?

If a job change is among your lifestyle changing resolutions during 2007, ask yourself, “Why do I want to change jobs?” Your answer may be as simple as “I want more money” or “I want a promotion”. If your first response is more, “I don’t know, but I know I want a different job”, then ask yourself, “What type of job do I want?” If you’re not sure about that either, I would suggest you add another resolution to your list. Add the resolution to “Discover my Career Purpose”. In the process of discovering your career purpose, you may find that you discover more about yourself, your values, your motivation, your interests, and your abilities.

What a wonderful year 2007 can be if you discover all those things about yourself!
