Quiz: What kind of rut are you in?
Feeling lethargic and uninspired? Learn what type of change your personality craves and get tips on recharging your life.
By Dayna Boyer
A career rut
Most days you feel uninspired, anxious, overwhelmed, and/or unimportant in your job. The scariest part about coming to terms with being in a career rut is becoming aware of the unhappiness, says Julia James, a life coach in Vancouver B.C. She recommends some small steps to take in order to regain control of your work life:
1. Be clear with yourself about your job priorities and say no to projects that don’t meet these goals.
2. Stop checking your email. Email can take up your whole day if you let it, which detracts from other (more important) tasks.
3. Look back at what used to inspire you at this job or another, and start making positive career moves to get back to that point where you loved your job.
4. Realize you can’t complete everything, so don’t beat yourself up over every missed deadline.
