Four signs you are ready to fall in love again

Working in any role takes commitment and a passion for the work you’re doing.

And sometimes it takes some introspection – aka navel gazing – to realise it’s time to boost your career and move on to a role with new challenges and bigger rewards.

Yes, it’s time to fall in love with your career all over again and there are four tell-tale signs.

If you recognise them, don’t delay: get ready for a new romance, right here, right now.

I want to be in control

If you’ve realised you’re cruising along in your job – or worse, simply allowing others to decide your direction of travel – take the helm and plot a new course.

Even this simple action of taking control will boost your confidence and enable you to make a genuinely ambitious career change.

I want to be surprised

If you don’t feel sufficiently challenged at work, it can lead to boredom or a lack of enthusiasm. And that’s not good for you or the standard of work you’re doing.

So if the surprise of the new would make Monday mornings a bit brighter, take a look at vacancies on jobs24.com that offer greater stimulation.

I want to be valued

Ever feel like you’re doing all the work but getting none of the credit? It’s not that you crave attention but a little credit would go a long way to helping you stay focused and motivated.

Stepping outside your current role could allow you more freedom to do the work you know you’re good at – while reaping the motivational benefits of recognition, self-esteem and a bigger salary.

I want new horizons

If you have a flair for coordinating teamwork and the ability to relate with colleagues as well as clients – while also abiding by guidelines and policies – then a promoted role into management could be for you.

So, next time you find yourself thinking there are better ways of doing this job, it’s a sure sign you should be looking for a new role on jobs24.com
