Ep213: My "one word" career strategy.
In this episode, Mei Phing discusses why taking action to demonstrate confidence in oneself and one’s skills is crucial for success, rather than just talking about it. Personal examples of how courage and focusing on competence helped with career progression.
Key Highlights
🌟 Courage and taking risks are essential for career growth: Mei Phing's decision to fly to Singapore for an interview, despite uncertainty, showcases the importance of courage and seizing opportunities.
💪 Focusing on competence can overcome challenges: Starting as a fresh graduate with longer promotion cycles, the speaker chose to focus on competence, leading to top performance and success.
🗝️ Mindset reset through choosing one word: By choosing one word, such as competence, and committing to it, the speaker experienced a mindset reset and found motivation for growth.
🌟 Motivational videos alone don’t bring change: Relying solely on motivational videos without taking action can become an addiction and hinder progress. Choosing one word as a motto is more effective.
📈 Progress should be felt along the way: It’s important to feel a sense of progress in terms of courage, confidence, competence, and self-belief throughout one’s career journey.
