Reflect On Your Accomplishments
I have a reminder set on my phone to update my CV every 4 months.
The reminder popped up a couple of weeks ago and at first I didn’t feel like I had anything to add, as I just started the project I’ve been working on two months ago.
So, as we do these days 🤭, I went to my trusty AI assistant and told it what I’ve been doing and asked it to help me improve the most recent section of CV and showcase how much impact I have made in a short amount of time.
It asked me for some figures so that it could create a more metric-driven version, and the suggested output reminded me of why I like to do this task periodically.
It’s so easy to get wrapped up in all that we are doing (especially if like me you have found yourself in a few positions where you have really had to “hit the ground running”), and forget just how much impact we are making in our roles.
This is why it is so important to reflect on your accomplishments, taking time to acknowledge and learn from past successes and challenges.
As well as reflecting with the aim of reporting on the impact you've had, reflecting also helps to remind yourself of WHY you are doing what you’re doing — and that’s what keeps you going (or nudges you to make a step towards your next move 👀).
