Ask yourself what is going on for you.

Is it too easy to stay where you are? Are you afraid of going for what you really want? Do you think you lack the skills necessary to make the leap to something new? Don’t want to put in the effort to get that new opportunity?

I find that taking steps toward a change very helpful. No matter how small they are. Once you are on a role you become more and more motivated to keep taking steps.

You might want to test the market – see what is out there for you. Apply for a role or two – or more! See what happens!

You might want to ask for more responsibility at work – showing initiative and working hard gives those around you, particularly superiors, a view of you that is reliable and capable. This path will lead you to bigger things, I guarantee it.

You might look into finding a project you can undertake outside of your full time job – is there someone who you have always wanted to work with? Do you want to grow a hobby of yours into something bigger? The point is to take action, take a risk and do something for you. It will motivate you to keep taking further leaps and when you look back, I’m sure that you will see that you have made progress both personally and professionally.
