As children we quickly pick up messages about our image, whether we fit in with society’s definition of normal or it’s definition of desirable or successful or like-able.  As adults we get to add the am I too young, too old, passed it, conundrum to the list.  Dove have come up with some very clever video’s showing what we’re exposed to on a daily basis at a more unconscious level.  Their self esteem fund is aimed at girls, but I would say that boys too are increasingly exposed to messages of a similar nature.

Wouldn’t it be great if we could be shown how to learn to love the skin we’re in, rather than wanting to change it and learn to love others for who they are.  It certainly beats the self image that’s says we’re not good enough.

I recently found some photo’s of me when I was a teenager, a time when I certainly didn’t think I was good enough, and would have described myself as ugly.  Now the reaction to the photo’s included some laughter at the hairstyles that were fashionable then (it was the 80’s).  However I also realised how pretty I was and that’s it’s the invisible glasses we wear that determine how we view things.  In my case I’d been wearing the all my friends are beautiful, pretty or fanciable and I’m the ugly ‘orrid ones.  No idea when those invisible glasses broke, but thank goodness they did.  Who knows what I’d have succumbed to, or how many years I’d have lost not being able to appreciate myself, quirks and all.

Dove’s self esteem fund has lots more information.

Here’s one of their video’s

Right now I’m breathing a sigh of relief, whilst also feeling slightly chuffed (translation = pleased with myself).

Why - because I’ve just launched a multi media product that helps individuals find and build a career that they love and let’s them express their real self.  Confidence, self esteem and job fulfilment increase massively as a consquence.

After donkey’s years of reading hundreds of books, attending several very expensive workshops and seminars, practicing on myself mercilessly, working with thousands of clients and leading many workshops, I’ve finally done it.  I’ve put together a practical, structured and informative multimedia package that helps you uncover the job and workplace you’re meant to thrive in.

In today’s economy it’s tempting to accept less, to think job satisfaction is enough.  That being able to build a successful career, where you get to be you and do what you love, is some type of fantasy.

But what if you could uncover your personal combination that sets you on the right career path?    I mean you could go through life with trial and error in finding the job, career and corporate environment that lets you shine. 

With a career that spans 21 years, I spent the first 12 years doing the whole trial and error approach to unlocking my personal code, and I can say it has very little to recommend it, but once I found my key that’s when things really began to take off. 

For the last 6 years I’ve been helping my clients find a job with meaning.   One that brings a deep sense of fulfilment; allows them to express their true identity and thrive, even in uncertainty.  And right now, more than ever, these are uncertain times.

So I’ve put together my proven process and system that takes you through this mental lock picking and in as little as 8 hours you could have your key to finding job fulfilment.

Take a look

Right,  I think I’ll reward myself with some chocolate and then it’s back to it.
