In your Journal make a list of tips or strategies (at least five) for yourself that will help you transition to the next step of your life. Some questions that might guide you in creating tips/strategies are:
What do you see as the next phase of your life? For example, a new job, school, new relationship?
What will you do purposefully to be successful?
How will you deal with the stress of working with new people? In a new environment?
How will you approach conflict?
An excellent resource to get some ideas (especially when transitioning from school to work) is at Resume Coach.
Do you get the feeling that most of the tips you have come across ask you to ‘play nice’ with everyone? As much as you should maintain positive relationships with the people you interact with, it is also important to know how to self-advocate and seek support when needed so that you can meet your learning, professional and personal needs.
Why is it important to self-advocate? Are you comfortable speaking up for yourself? Can you see any similarities between advocacy and leadership?
Speaking up is hard to do, even when you know you should. This Ted Talk from social psychologist Adam Galinsky aims to teach you how to assert yourself, navigate tricky social situations and expand your power.
Think of a time when you did or did not speak up for yourself. How did it make you feel? If you advocated for yourself, what gave you the courage? If you did not speak up, what would you do differently?
Positive affirmations refer to the practice of positive thinking and self-empowerment. It can foster a positive mental attitude supported by affirmations that can help you achieve success in anything.
Write a list ofpositive affirmations that will help boost your confidence when you find yourself in a situation where you are nervous or hesitant to speak up.
Make this list visually appealing and put it somewhere you will see it on a regular basis. Just like the transition list, these confidence boosters can be a reminder of what you can and will do when you need it most. For example, “My feelings are important and worth being heard.”
