This may explain why you struggle to relax after a hectic day. #relaxation #anxiety
Achieving your goals doesn’t have to be hard. You just need to know the process to follow (based on science).
Here are 4 evidence-based steps to include as the foundation of whatever process you use:
1. Create your Visualisation
Picture the life or career you aspire to– the clearer, the better.
What does it look like?
What are you achieving?
Let this vision be clear and compelling in your mind.
Then, write it down.
↳This increases your commitment (Cheama & Bagchi, 2011)
2. Imagine the Steps
Think of all the hurdles and obstacles that might block you.
Distractions? Fears? Financial constraints?
List these potential challenges.
↳ This mentally prepares you for challenges (Kappes, 2011)
3. Create your Coping Strategies
For each hurdle you listed above, identify a solution for each.
What resources, skills, and supportive people can help you?
Document them → this is your coping plan.
↳ This enhances your readiness to face obstacles (Sheeran, Listrom, Gollwitzer, 2024)
4. Visualise Facing These Challenges
Imagine yourself confronting and overcoming these challenges using your prepared strategies.
↳ This boosts confidence & reinforces your ability to handle difficulties.
What else have you found valuable when it comes to setting and achieving goals? There’s a lot more we could add to these four steps.

Feeling stuck in your career? Which of these 3 (+2 extra) reasons is it for you?
1) INVISIBLE ACHIEVER:
You pour in hours, yet your brilliance goes unnoticed.
2) HAUNTED BY DOUBT:
That nagging voice keeps whispering you’re a fraud.
3) THE SILENT SIDELINER:
Your groundbreaking ideas stay buried beneath your own hesitation.
4) LOST AT THE HELM:
You feel you have no control over your career direction.
5) THE OVERTHINKING TRAP:
Your overthinking brain has become your own worst enemy.
What else do we need to add to the list?

Hey YT family! There are only 2 DAYS LEFT to download my FREE Career Resource Bundle, which comes with my FREE Salary Negotiation Guide, a step-by-step playbook for securing the salary you deserve (even if you’ve never negotiated before), with sample scripts. Also comes with my Resume Checklist (with 40+ questions) + 5 must-know ChatGPT Prompts to become the ultimate job applicant– 100% free.
Early in my career, I lacked the confidence to ask for opportunities, to speak up or to negotiate what I was worth. For years I watched others being offered higher salaries, better opportunities, and more recognition. Why? They confidently advocated for themselves.
And I want to help you do that too.
So, I created this bundle to help you advocate for yourself (now or in future) when looking for a job, during interviews and while negotiating.
Download the FREE resources here (2 days left!):
www.shadezahrai.com/salary-negotiation
The key message: 👉 Stand up for yourself, because no one can advocate for you better than you can.
Cheering you on!

What’s on your TO BE list this year?
With 2023 just around the corner, now’s a great time to reflect back over your year and to purposefully look ahead.
Here are three questions I love asking to help get those reflection juices flowing:
1. What am I grateful for this year?
2. If I could go back in time and give myself 1 piece of advice, at the beginning of this year, what would it be?
3. If I could change one thing about my life in 2023, what would it be?
It’s good practice to journal your answers and then immediately commit to putting them into action.
I’d love to hear for of your insights in the chat below!
And lastly, if I haven’t expressed it enough - a heartfelt thank you from my husband and I for being here and giving us a reason to share this content with you all (we co-produce these videos).
To your growth, joy and health.

Hi lovely people, Please look out for a scammer pretending to be me offering iPad prizes. It's been brought to our attention by some subscribers. It will be great if you can report this to Youtube and please share in the comments the channel ID. Let's get this creep! 💪
