CAREER SUCCESS GUIDE June 2008 | Dear Jsidufh, Are You a Top Achiever? When I refer to the word 'achiever,' the definition can be as broad, or as specific, as you prefer. As a mom or dad, do you feel that you've achieved milestones in the area of raising a family? As a manager, do you believe that others in your organization can pinpoint you as being one of the top achievers? The achievement measure may be an internal or external one; and it's timeframe could span a day....or even a couple of years. Achievement requires some agreed upon measure that allows a person to excel above and beyond all possible barriers. If you're currently searching for a new position or career, then of course the ultimate achievement is securing a new position that closely matches your interests and goals. But, as it is with most journeys, be aware that you're still achieving even before you reach the ultimate goal of getting a new job. Don't overlook the value of self-assessment, networking, and goal clarity during a job search. These are markers that serve to refine your perspective and self-awareness. Job searching is tough work. You have to market your capabilities to a stranger during a one-hour interview - - if you get an interview. But, it's highly likely that you've accomplished, or achieved, so many goals prior to the interview - - and now is the time to talk proudly about them.

The surest way to become a high achiever on the career path is to study the traits of those who have earned that status. Winners are identified by 13 indicators. 1. They separate work and play. They work hard and consistently to achieve success in each segment of their life. 2. They see their job as being composed of a variety of bite-size task and manage their time according to priorities. They focus on the tasks at hand. 3. They know how to manage their relationships with their boss, as well as their peers. They enlist mentors. They treat people with whom they have contact with proper respect. 4. They work according to a career plan; they are persistent in pursuing goals. At the same time, achievers know that the best-laid plans must evolve with changing conditions. They make plans with optimism and confidence; at the same time they design fallback strategies if things jump the track.

You make some changes to your resume, you contact a couple of people in your network (friends, recruiters, associates, etc.), you check out the internet job boards, and you begin to circulate your resume. And then you wait.... and wait....  It's also likely that you're still attempting to hold onto a position that no longer fits your interests or qualifications. Still working a full work week and finding that you have minimal time to effectively search for a new job. Everyone's saying that you need to devote full-time hours to find a new job.
