Want a new job in 2021?
Anxious and miserable are the top two words I hear women use to describe how they feel when they go to work each day. How awful, right?
If you’ve found yourself using those same words, do you think it’s time to make a change?
2020 has (hopefully) taught you that there’s no time to waste being unhappy. (Wo)man up and set all the excuses aside.
Make it your #1 goal to get a new job...one that you actually like...in EARLY 2021. I’m sharing all about how to make it happen in our latest blog post. https://www.mindsetmamas.com/blog-post/2021

That is definitely a good way to think! Especially right now. I am someone who was a contract worker who did set build and painting, fabrication etc as was furloughed. I didn’t realize how much I physically killings myself until COVID forces me to stop. I have def had time to sit and think what the next step is for me. I want a new job for sure but I just need to figure what that new direction! Maybe just a badass painter!? We will see! I definitely agree that any sort of thinking positive for the future is a great thing right now!

Hi Liz! Thanks for your comment. Wow - what a job and I'm sure your body just plain hurts from it. Do you love painting? If not, what are you typically doing when you lose track of time?

Sorry for the late reply! Yes I went to school for painting and that has always been my number #1 . So It is time for me to work work work and see what happens!? I am also a trained yoga teacher but zoom yoga isn’t really my thing so that is also a bit on the back burner. MAAAYBE—I just need to stop thinking and start doing!

Hi Keli. Your post have given me such as inspiration and yes I do want a new job in 2021. Spending 24 years in a job that I’m very unhappy, frustrated plus physically and mentally drained I need a change. Like Liz stated above she didn’t realize she was killing herself until COVID, I felt that way before COVID and surely afterward.
