April Newsletter

Love Your Job - Helping you to love your job or to find a job you do love - the monthly Amazing People newsletter

April 2008

Welcome to the April issue of Love your Job. I can’t believe how quickly the time is going this year, and whilst it’s good to be busy I am trying hard to have some balance in my life. That’s one of the little challenges about finding a job you love, it doesn’t feel like work and so you can end up spending too much time on it and I usually manage to squeeze an extra appointment into a week when I have a client in distress. To help my work/life balance I spent Easter at a health spa and really can’t get over how much good it did me. I left the laptop and work behind and took a novel but really didn’t plan to do anything to tax my brain and I didn’t! So I spent 4 days being pampered, eating healthy and taking time to use the gym and go to exercise classes. The holidays I’ve been going on over the past couple of years have been adventurous but certainly not restful so this was very good for me and my short break was worth a 2 weeks holiday! I’ve also kept the feeling for the past 10 days and hope to keep this feeling till my next trip!

My work has remained varied with clients ranging from a senior executive preparing for a Director post in a blue chip company to young graduates who need to get started on their career path. Clients have travelled from as far afield as Liverpool, London and Hull. I’ve also undertaken more advanced training on the Highlands Ability Battery and I’m putting a proposal together for a large scale career initiative with a major company.

Technological wise I have now got my blog looking just like my web site. I’m very interested in design and think that it is such a great step to make the blog look integral to the site rather than something different. If you are interested you can sign up to get the blog entries delivered direct to your in box each day. I currently have 2 subscribers to the blog feed (not many and I’d love more). I think most people don’t understand how feed burner operates but if you have a bit of time to stay its worth signing up – I get 5 peoples blogs straight to my inbox each day, usually I have a quick scan and delete which only takes seconds, but sometimes there is a really useful article and I’m so pleased that I got it.

By the way, I now have 1041 subscribers (at 1st March) and I really appreciate all of you, do please forward this newsletter to anyone who wants to love their job and suggest they sign up for their complimentary copy of the 10 steps to a job you love eProgramme.

So hope you are happy in work and if not what are you going to do to make a change?
