Want Career Change Success? Take Action!

When it comes to your plan to change your career

, setting yourself up for success is important right from the start. Having the best intentions is not what is going to get you to your final destination. The only way you will get to where you want to go is to take action.

Your career plan is very much like a road map to help you to navigate to your destination. Every time you complete a task, you get to check it off. Every time you check off a task, you are that much closer to reaching your goal.

Each smaller task that you complete during the process of working towards achieving your larger goals is an important milestone that gets you closer to your main goal or mission. So celebrate each and every step nearer your goal you get.

These milestones deserve to be celebrated, as they allow you to see the forward progress you are making toward achieving your goal, and they're proof you've taken action. And that's what it's all about.

How many people do you know who talk about the book they are going to write some day, or you hear about a friend who has a great idea that will improve our lives in some way. Yet somehow the book or the great idea never gets born into the light of day. Most people let their dreams slip away, and that's a tragedy.

Why is this?

The difference between whether any goal, small or large is reached is whether we take action or not. The great philosopher Lao Tzu said, "The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." That's why I strongly recommend you celebrate each and every tiny step you take towards your career change goal, because this will encourage you to keep on. This continuous action will help you gain the necessary momentum in following your plan from beginning all the way to the end.

Taking action is the thing that will set you up for success.

Keep things fresh and interesting for yourself too. Do something different than you normally do every day. Change, no matter how small is good for us. It stops us "getting old" in our thinking. It can be something small such as turning right instead of left when you leave the house to go about your business tomorrow. Change your route. When you make little changes every day you'll notice your awareness starts to expand. And with each expansion of your awareness you get more in tune with yourself-your higher self. The purpose of your higher self is always to steer you in the direction of what's right for you-to steer you toward your purpose.
