Coaching Tips

There can be nothing worse than that awful feeling you get on a Sunday evening because you are dreading Monday morning and another week at a job you hate.

Monday, a day of dread, fear and loathing for so many all because they’re in the wrong job; that sick feeling in the pit of your stomach, it always used to remind me of being in school and going back after the long summer holiday that feeling you get that is a mix of fear of the unknown, dread and apprehension.

Instead of being a day you enjoy, Sunday becomes a day that you try to prolong for as long as possible; getting up late and staying up as late as possible as if it was possible to suspend time, turn the clock back or stop it in its tracks! But sure as day follows night Monday morning will come around and you will have to confront all that you have been dreading head on.

How do I know so much about this?

Well the simple answer is this was me in my first job for 6 and half years of hell, knowing from day one I hated the job and I should have run and never looked back. Why did I stay so long? Because I had no idea how to escape, find another job or what else I was capable of doing.

So if you hate Mondays you don’t have to suffer any longer, help is at hand, you know what to do get in touch and let’s make all your Monday’s Happy ones!

Try this exercise:

What is missing from your work now, and has been in previous jobs?

Write down all that is missing and turn these points around into a sentence that starts: “What I want to create ad experience in my work is……..”
