As a career counsellor,
Most people think that I care most about my coachee’s career
Yes and No!
I care first about their mental health,
Then how to develop their career accordingly.
You may have the dream job.
But, if you’re struggling with your mental health,
You face progression bottleneck sooner than later.
Mental strength is like physical strength.
We train and maintain our physical strength to be ready for physical challenges
We also train our mental strength to be ready for any mental challenges we face.
If we face physical injury we treat and rest before training again,
If we face mental blows we treat and recover before moving forward.
Agree? Would love to hear from you.
