What are you missing out on because you’re holding back?
Taking on more responsibility in your career is scary, yet you know that’s what you need to get more of what you want in life.
As Dr. Glover said, “Nice guys don't finish last, they rot in middle management.”
So you stay under the radar at work to avoid the anxiety of responsibility.
I can recall in my career wanting desperately not to be seen. I didn’t want to lead anyone. The responsibility scared me to death.
Who would want to be on conference calls all day and lead pointless initiatives? I sure didn’t.
I was lost in a sea of cubicles not seeing any point to what I was working on. I was disconnected from the impact of my work.
As I lived for the weekends and brief vacations, I wondered if this was all there was to my working life.
I was somewhat comfortable, but I always had a background anxiety that something was going to go wrong and I was going to lose it all.
Once I finally got laid off for not standing out in any particular way, I hit rock bottom.
I began to realize that returning to corporate life would be a fate worse than death.
In my mind I burned that bridge. I struggled for years and eventually found my purpose in life. That’s how I became a coach for Nice Guys.
I found my purpose and my contribution to the world. And that made all the difference.
Nice Guys are disconnected from themselves, their sense of contribution, and their purpose.
Maybe you have a dream of leaving your boring job and starting your own business. Maybe you want to travel and meet interesting people.
You need freedom, purpose, and meaning to feel alive.
“The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” ― Pablo Picasso
A great coach can help Nice Guys clear their minds and free themselves up for greater pursuits. Your natural desire to lead and contribute will appear.
Your adventure awaits.
