The Second Most Common Reason Why You Are Unfulfilled At Work: It’s Not What You Think
“I don’t feel good about myself because I’m not tapping into my full potential…”
Or “I’m not making the contribution I know I can deliver…”
Have you ever had that feeling that you are much more than who you think you are or what others see of you?
This is not an uncommon feeling, especially among executives. You’ve climbed the corporate ladder and got yourself into a power position to make a difference in people’s lives.
Yet, you know there is so much more inside you waiting to be unlocked. But somehow, day after day you witness that you’re not maximising what you’ve been given by life.
Deep down, you know with certainty that there is more to you than meet the eye. But for some strange reason, it’s not happening… You feel you’re falling short of your capacities…
Why is it so close, yet it feels so far?
It’s because you’re battling an invisible force: resistance.
You can’t see it, touch it or smell it, but resistance is alive and well.
People live unfulfilled lives because they ‘listen’ to resistance.
Resistance seems to come from outside ourselves. We locate it in spouses, jobs, bosses, kids, and colleagues.
But in reality, resistance is not a peripheral opponent; it arises from within. It is self-generated and self-perpetuated.
It’s our enemy from within. Resistance joins the other voices inside our heads. It is the friend of fear, procrastination, and staying inside our comfort zone. Its target is the epicentre of our being: our genius, our soul, the unique and priceless gift we were put on earth to share.
If you feel enough is enough! If you know it’s time for you to leave the average route and embark on the path to awesomeness.
Here are a few ideas to start with:
- Get crystal clear on who you truly are. It’s having crystal clarity and certainty of your values and on what drives you day in day out. It’s also knowing precisely what is holding you back. Without this degree of clarity, you lack congruency. And that makes it harder to feel totally aligned with what you’re doing.
- Give your goals meaning. Goals need to fire you up and if they don’t, then they need some refining. Goals need strong personal commitment. This often means changes in attitude, perception, and a stronger belief in yourself.
- Self-reflection. Despite your busy life and your many commitments, it’s crucial to block time off for yourself, so you can go deep and spend time alone without distractions to look for your own answers. If you don’t schedule your “me-time” it won’t happen. One of my mentors said, “If It’s not in your diary, then you’re not serious about it”. Commit to yourself and your personal growth! None can do it for you…
- Be flexible and become resilient. The truth is, things rarely turn out exactly as you expect. Tackling roadblocks and overcoming the rollercoaster of emotions requires specific skills. Most likely, it’s a skill set you’ve never been taught. Emotional intelligence and resilience are skills you can learn and master.
It’s never too late...
The steps and suggestions above are just the starting point.
Clarify Your Identity, Create Your Future Vision, and Clear The Roadblocks are three steps we use in our 5-Step framework to help our clients move from stuck and unfulfilled to free and on purpose.
It takes time, patience, commitment, effort, and often a different perspective to put all the pieces of the puzzle together.
Once you’ve completed the puzzle of yourself, the real game of life can begin.
In Nutshell:
To regain fulfilment at work, clarify your identity and your goals, question your perspective and develop emotional resilience. Together these will allow you to get a deeper understanding of yourself, help you put the pieces of the puzzle together, and shed light on a path forward to greater meaning, satisfaction, and success.
