You have accomplishments.

You have things to contribute.

You have skills, knowledge, life experience, credentials, and expertise.

What will you do with all this? Wait around to be recognized or take action and make things happen?

First – figure out what you want. It’s a powerful and demanding question, but crucial for your life and work. Once you know the answer, make a solid plan you believe will achieve what you want, and then ask for it with professionalism, kindness, generosity, confidence, and integrity.

If you want to sing, stand up and sing wherever you can. It’s a form of asking for what you want.

You want to write, create a blog, and publish it regularly. You are getting what you want and building an opportunity for your work to be known.

You want to work for a particular company or person, do thorough research, and then create a strategy and realistic steps or tactics to have them know who you are and be so interested in what you do and can offer them that they welcome you right in.

Look for opportunities to do and try, which also means creating your opportunity or the chance to make your goal, vision, dream, or purpose happen.

You have some idea that needs to take form, and then see where it is needed.

How can you fill in a hole somewhere? Target what is missing and where your services and products can fill the vacancy, and remove scarcity with yourself and all you are. Show people you are the answer for them.

Suppose you do not step forward into the light and ‘pick yourself’ as Seth Godin so eloquently describes. In that case, you are missing out, stalling, hiding, delaying from sharing your abilities with others, and doing work that you love and hope will make other people’s lives better.

Open doors so people can meet you.

Turn on the lights so people can see you.

Tell your story – This is who I am and what I do. Here is how you can benefit.
