Chart Your Options
If you are uncertain about your next step, but you have 5-6 job possibilities in your mind, chart out these options and ask:
- How interesting would it be? Use a 1 to 10 scale to rank it.
- How easy or difficult would it be to make happen?
- How much do you actually know about this as a career? How deep is your knowledge?
Add up the points and see where each job falls on the chart.

Don’t Wait Until You’re Unhappy
We tend to only do something about our careers when we have a problem. But if you wait until you’re laid off or dissatisfied, you may take action but it won’t feel authentic.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
