To help a client overcome their fear of failure in a new career path, start by acknowledging their feelings and understanding the root of their fear. Encourage them to reframe failure as a learning opportunity and focus on developing a growth mindset. Set realistic goals and celebrate small achievements to build confidence. Introduce resilience-building techniques like mindfulness and stress management, and recommend seeking support from mentors or peers. Share success stories of others who faced similar fears. Guide them through visualizing both success and failure, and create an action plan with clear steps and strategies to mitigate risks. Regular check-ins and self-reflection will help them track progress and adjust goals as needed.

Se fixer des objectifs SMART est un mode opératoire que je recommande. Cet acronyme signifie : Simple, Mesurable, Atteignable, Réaliste et Temporel c'est à dire avec une date de réalisation réaliste. Ensuite, il est intéressant de formuler ses objectifs de façon à pouvoir les inclure dans son agenda par petites touches qui donneront des petites victoires qui génèrent des élans positifs. Exemple : je souhaite réseauter, après avoir identifier mes cibles, je fixe un déjeuner ou petit déjeuner par mois dans mon agenda et m'y tiens, c'est déjà un début ! Le bénéfice de ces rencontres sera hyper positif - à tester sans modération

Focus on the things that you CAN control. I can spend __ minutes a day doing ___. If and when I get a "No" I will _____. After doing ____, I will do ____ as a reward. Many people focus on what their results are, but instead focus on the inputs. The results will come with the right inputs, but we can't always know when they will happen.

Every challenge is a learning opportunity. A growth mindset is key when exploring a new career path! When working with my clients I like to introduce the concept of "Yet" as a way to reframe challenges as opportunities for learning - I don't have this skill "Yet" - I am not qualified for this job "Yet" We look at failures or mistakes as input data for our learning plan. We capitalize on fears as valuable data points for improvement, and scan to probabilities of challenge; transforming it from fear to backup scenarios or indicators to the validity of the available paths. Combining all into an actionable learning/career plan, develops a clear roadmap for success.

When you start looking at mistakes are nothing but at least you tried. And that will allow you to free from guilt , any fear and fell good you did. What went wrong , so next attempt of any task you will check twice. Mistakes allow you to work upon what next ?

Et si nous visualisions notre objectif et donc notre réussite ? Quelle belle perspective ! La visualisation mentale d'un objectif est à la fois positive, apaisante et créative puisqu'elle transporte dans le monde des possibles et permet de ce fait de développer la confiance en soi. J'aime mentionner le sprinteur 4x champion olympique Bruny Surin qui dit "Le moi que je vois est le moi que je serai" N'est-ce pas une façon de rester déterminé pour atteindre notre objectif ? A se répéter tous les matins ;)

Suponha que você está se preparando para uma apresentação importante no trabalho. Antes do dia, dedique alguns minutos diariamente para se sentar em um lugar tranquilo, fechar os olhos e visualizar o momento da apresentação. Imagine-se entrando na sala com confiança, apresentando suas ideias com clareza e precisão, e recebendo feedback positivo dos colegas e superiores. Visualize todos os detalhes, desde o que você está vestindo até as expressões no rosto da plateia. Ao fazer isso repetidamente, você condiciona sua mente a associar a apresentação com sucesso, reduzindo a ansiedade e aumentando sua autoconfiança no dia real.

It's really difficult to set goals and make sure you're focusing on the right things without someone challenging you and helping you to stay on track. My clients and I agree early in our relationship that my role is to push, challenge and ask tough questions, and they give me the permission to do so before we proceed. From there, we look at where they want to be a year from that point, and keep that front and center in each step that we take. Having a coach, mentor or someone who's not afraid to challenge you is critical.

Pour trouver de l'aide il faut oser en demander et parler autour de soi de ses besoins, de son projet. J'ai pu observé que souvent cela porte ses fruits qu'il s'agisse de mise en contact ou de rebond de contact. Essayez vous ne risquez rien !

Carving out time to reflect is central to a successful career change. We can get overly focused on doing and striving when it comes to managing our careers, but the way forward is often answered for us in reflections about what motivated us in the past. So reflections such as ..What work environments enabled you to thrive? Or... Looking at career satisfaction through the lens of your values can give you rich information about what you need going forward. Reflecting on career achievements in particular can boost your confidence and make you feel more positive about what you can bring to future employers.

It’s good to remind the client why he/she wanted to make a career switch in the first place. A sense of uncertainty and fear is common, but encourage the client to keep going, with a solid action plan. The only way out is through after all.

Growth begins outside of the comfort zone. Take every failure as a learning opportunity. If anything, you will know if the new journey is for you or not.

I create a 'failure resume’ with my clients to help them develop a growth and learning mindset when changing careers and managing their fear of failure.
