I like to reflect on my old journals, writings, and review old goals so I know when to move onto new goals and think about how I've done it in the past. My number one advice is to not be afraid to ask strangers for help and leave your comfort zone/don’t be afraid to go back. If you're looking to start something new, think "how hard can it be?" Just remember everyone has to figure it out when they do something the first time, so fake it till you make it and be patient!

CAREER PATHS 6 Fresh Ways to Find Your Passion

Stop searching for your passion

The one word that comes to mind is “vulnerability”. There will be times during your career where things are overwhelming and difficult - emotionally, mentally and physically (e.g., family crisis, lots of work that needs to get out the door, etc). And it’s ok to let your team members know what’s going on and get support. And yes, it is ok to also say that you just can’t come into work today. I bring that “vulnerability” to work every day, it’s my super power. It provides a safe space for other people to come to work and bring their full selves - if you are going through something difficult and then you come to work and shut it off, you aren’t really “showing up”. And “showing up” allows you to tap into areas you didn’t even know existed.

The Best Leaders Are Vulnerable

Whether you run your own company, are part of a high flying team or work as a freelancer - pretty much everyone of us will be undervaluing our intellectual assets. Yet they are the one thing that is totally unique to each of us, has the potential to create new value and will go on accruing as we get older... win, win, win.

So what do I mean by 'intellectual assets'? In a nutshell your intellectual assets are everything that has got you to here now. Without exception. Your childhood experience, your home, your lifelong client list, what you've ever been paid to do, your connections. By mapping these and auditing them inventively, you can develop a creative 'offer' that no-one will ever be able to compete with - because they are not you.

Standing back to see the patterns, the overlaps, the skills, new interesting sectors, services you can take from one client to another helps widen and refresh your offer. You can do it annually and each time new perspectives will emerge.

This methodology works across the board. It is simple and highly effective. And you already own the 'ingredients'.

Understanding and developing the value of intellectual assets is part of the methodology I developed in helping over 300 creative agencies and professionals to grow their business. Because I can only work with a given number at any one time, I poured my knowledge about this into a book to make it accessible to everyone. With only 5* reviews on Amazon, it will help you unpack the intellectual asset thinking to find new revenues and value in your own business - from what you already own.

Remember to constantly check-in with yourself. Ask yourself, "How am I showing up to others?" Know how you are being observed, and be aware of the message you are sending.
