SHOW NOTES:
SOMETIMES WE FORGET HOW CHALLENGING THAT FIRST JOB WAS
- Sometimes your first job(s) are just cogs in a machine - you work, but you don’t really care
- A tale of two first job searches and surrounding activities
- [Tale 1] Are you qualified for a job? Do you know how to do all the required things?
- “I’m about to do this first task, and I’m very nervous”
- “They keep giving me more things to do, and asking if I want more things to do”
- “Just run with it, own it”
- We meet 1:1 every week. Sometimes they miss/cancel the meeting.
- Understanding the entrepreneur’s mindset and challenges
- [Tale 2] The fork in the road, and the road less travelled.
- The job that doesn’t pay as well, but provides the necessary experience.
