I <em>really do.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s any consolation, there\u2019s nothing wrong with you! You are just a human being having a very vulnerable, human experience right now.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Here are 5 reasons why you might be finding it tough:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">1. We are human beasts, seeking <strong><em>basic human connection<\/em><\/strong> and belonging. We have \u00a0 hardwired needs that are currently being thwarted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">2. We need <strong><em>purpose and meaning<\/em><\/strong>. And if you can\u2019t deliver your best work right now, you may feel that purpose is less clear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">3. Many people need <strong><em>external validation<\/em><\/strong> to feel like they\u2019re on-track and doing a great job. Without the connection and input from other human beings, that becomes less possible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">4. We humans need to feel <strong><em>certainty<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 or at least the ability to try and predict what may happen. The corona situation has been unique in that it is difficult for even our smartest minds to know what will happen. This need for certainty connects with our primal need for <strong><em>security<\/em> and to <em>protect those we hold dear<\/em><\/strong>. Even those basic needs feel unstable right now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">5. We all have <strong><em>intrinsic values<\/em> that we are seeing compromised<\/strong>. If, for example, you value any of these things: creativity, innovation, variety, conversation, being in the limelight, socialising, being an authority, or your own space and privacy (this is really difficult when you\u2019re you might be living 24\/7 with your kids!)\u2026 you may be finding isolation tough.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">(Conversely if you value keeping to yourself and don\u2019t enjoy face to face communication much, you may be enjoying isolation quite a bit!) \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If any of this rings true, I know you want to help yourself \u2013 am I right?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1191\" src=\"https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"508\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small.jpeg 2457w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small-300x199.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small-1024x678.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small-768x509.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small-1536x1017.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small-2048x1356.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Hand-Heart-ADOBE-STOCK-small-600x397.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 508px) 100vw, 508px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>I&#8217;d love to share\u00a011 strategies to help you push through your Corona-Career anxiety:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.Acknowledge the &#8216;very human experience&#8217; you&#8217;re having right now<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This means appreciating your feelings, needs and values for what they are. There is nothing to be guilty or ashamed about. It\u2019s okay to feel irritated, annoyed, angry, despondent, disappointed. It will all pass.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Remind yourself that this period of time will end<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nothing is finite. We will return to &#8216;normal&#8217; at some point soon enough and then, you might look back on this period and see it as a learning somehow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Know what is in your control<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Do one list of what you <em>can<\/em> control and another for what you <em>can\u2019t<\/em>. How much of this is in your control?<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Remind yourself of your tremendous value<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Be very clear how much professional and personal value you add. Whether in isolation or not, you remain the same experienced and valuable individual you were 3 months ago. Perhaps now you have even more to offer, having managed through this change? Maybe there is a value you can offer your family, team, clients, or boss \u2013 now more than ever? How do they need you right now? How can you help them?<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Write a \u201c50\u201d List<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a list of 50 ways in which you\u2019re adding value today. It\u2019s amazing what this simple exercise will throw up and how it can throw despondency out of the window!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1192\" src=\"https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"290\" srcset=\"https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-scaled.jpeg 2560w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-300x174.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-1024x594.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-768x446.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-1536x891.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-2048x1188.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Brilliant-Imperfect-Adobe-Stock-600x348.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Refocus your goals and expectations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What will be a good outcome for you in the next 3 months? You may need to adjust your goalposts or KPIs. With this new focus, check-in to assess how realistic you are being. Make sure whatever you set is manageable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Keep communication channels open<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And that means both personal and professional relationships. Take lots of steps to keep connected with people. Share your refocused goals with your manager and keep in touch regularly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Set small, regular goals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Keep yourself motivated and focused with small, daily goals. This will help manage the uncertainty and keep your brain occupied on<em> single outcomes<\/em> rather than spiralling into an overwhelmed state.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Be kind to yourself!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re doing the best that you can with the resources that you have. It\u2019s that simple.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. Make plans for the future<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Consider all the personal activities you want to do once this is all over. Maybe you want to visit new countries, spend time with gorgeous people or enjoy a cocktail at your favourite bar. Get your teeth stuck into some career planning. Have you come to realisation you need a different role? Is there a new opportunity you want to experience? Do you want to redesign how you could be more successful in your current position within the next 6-12 months?<\/p>\n<p><strong>11. Reconnect with your higher purpose<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When feeling like you&#8217;re wallowing in the mud and struggling to see the wood for the trees&#8230; always take yourself up to your <em>higher mission<\/em>. What are you doing this for? That sense of purpose might just reignite your enthusiasm and get you back on track.<\/p>\n<p>Rebecca x<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/gHpb7b\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1206\" src=\"https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/loved-reading-that-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"91\" srcset=\"https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/loved-reading-that-1.png 810w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/loved-reading-that-1-300x55.png 300w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/loved-reading-that-1-768x140.png 768w, https:\/\/illuminategrowth.com.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/loved-reading-that-1-600x110.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Rebecca Allen, COI of Illuminate Personal Growth, works with professional women to help them take their careers to the next level.
