What is Career Mojo?

 

 

If you’ve been waking up in the mornings feeling reluctant to start your work day, or perhaps you find yourself watching the clock after lunch, nervously begging for those tocks to tick on, so you can escape the mundanity that is your day job, then you need to read this.

 

 

We’ve heard it all before.

You spend the majority of your waking life at work .
Do what you love and you’ll never have to work a day in your life.

We think whoever spews this ridiculousness must be naive or gripping onto fragile hope just to make it through the day, right?

Wrong. We are here to tell you that it’s ok to leave a job you’ve had for years, or even decades,and find a more fulfilling role that enhances your self-worth and sense of pride. In fact, it’s more than Ok - it’s fantastic! Your Career Mojo is something worth fighting for because your happiness, well-being and life-satisfaction are worth fighting for!

We are beings who perform better when we are motivated. Whether that motivation is coming from an external source, like work conditions and the physical work environment, or an internal source, like the satisfaction and enjoyment you get from your job, it all impacts your performance and your state of mind.

Your Career Mojo is that feeling of sheer joy when someone asks you about what you do. It is that spring in your step as you get ready for your day. It is that realisation that you are a valued employee.

The times of remaining loyal to a single company for the duration of your working life (not because you’re happy or you love your colleagues, but because it’s a stable job and sticking with it is the responsible thing to do) are long gone. We are blessed to have more opportunities available to us today. We no longer need to fear being rejected across the board if we lack specific experience. Companies are ready to train, educate and develop the transferable skills you already have. There are also new positions open today that were unheard of just a few years ago.

You might need to reframe the anxious feeling you get at the thought of starting something new and beginning the next chapter with unfamiliar people. It might be better described as excitement . And why shouldn’t you feel excited about reinventing yourself, expanding your self-image and discovering something afresh? It IS exciting! It can be exhilarating to regain your Career Mojo. All that’s needed is to look around.

That’s where recruiters come in. Recruiters want to know about your personality, the things that motivate you, your past successes and difficulties, what your passions are. These things will allow them to better guide you to what possibilities are available to you, ones that you might have not even known existed. They want to help you get back your Career Mojo and love what you do.
