Your emotions and mindset are top priority when changing jobs
Your emotions and mindset are top priority when changing jobs.
Here’s one unconventional way to keep them steady:
A Brag Book
To keep yourself mentally fit and emotionally afloat during the uncertainty of a job change, create a Brag File (and look at it often).
A brag file is a file on your computer (or physical file you keep) where you can save all of your Wins, Metrics, Awards, Honors, Thank You emails from your boss, glowing reviews, client kudos, etc.
All the stuff that makes you high five yourself in the mirror for a job well done.
This can support you in two main ways:
1. To use in your career materials as social and measurable proof in the future (think resume, cover letter, linkedin, portfolio, etc.)
and
2. To review on days that you're feeling down to rekindle the belief that your work is meaningful and others find it so, too.
Look at it often
And build on it every 6 months.
