๐ Ready to Rewrite Your Story? Let's Do It Together!
๐ I started my company Amplify Soon, because I am called to empower the next generation of minorities to discover their strengths and own their potential. Let me share a bit of my journey with you.
๐ญ When I look back for 20 years of my career, I've done two things really well
As an immigrant, I tried to not stand out, never make waves, and did my best to assimilate into the culture
But, I also want to get ahead in my career. So I look at what others did to get promoted, and tried to do the same.
๐ญ I got really good at being who I am not.
That led me to "i can't get out of bed" exhaustion.
โจ But today, I feel different.
For many parts of my work and life, I am able to use my strengths - which are things that energize me.
I intentionally immerse myself with activities, relationships, even thoughts that brings me energy.
Whenever possible, I also minimize activities that drain my energy.
I call this my "Personal Energy Management".
๐ So how did I get here?
๐ At the edge of burning out, was when I took the CliftonStrengths assessment.
My CliftonStrengths results unveiled
1. What are the things I do best naturally and gives me energy
2. What are the things that are like vampire and sucking the life out of me
๐ Turns out, CliftonStrengths was the lifeline for my midlife crisis.
And now that i am on the other side, I want you to know
That if you feel stuck, like I was, know that there IS a better way to work and live.
