Your Mental Health Before we headed off on vacatio

Your Mental Health Before we headed off on vacation we were thinking about the role our mental health plays in our career and life planning. If we learned anything in the past year it was that we needed to check in with ourselves to see how we were mentally and then zoom in on those things that were getting in our way. The tools and stories below are a good place to start, but of course, if your situation feels overwhelming find a professional to guide you. All in this week's newsletter.

This week in the heat of summer we’re talking about new habits formed during (you know what) and if any of them are worth saving. Then John Tarnoff calls for a LinkedIn Mission Statement. And when they’re good we throw in a few events worth attending and tools to drive change. 4 COVID-ERA HABITS THAT PEOPLE AREN’T READY TO LOSE NPR NewsHour rounded up experts and NewsHour readers to tell their stories of the process of change over the past year and a half. Which of the new habits from that time will remain? Top contenders are; Masks always, Healthy habits, Going to the doctor without going anywhere, and Home is where the office is. Every one of them loaded with baggage. 🙂 More in this week's newsletter.

We're stepping out in October with events in NY and DC to move the conversation about age at work to the front of the line. We're delighted to be partnering with amazing.community, and their global network expanding the work horizon for women 45+. Along with the best minds on the topic, we're insisting that the evening be an interactive, sleeves-rolled-up, dialog. If your organization would like to have a prominent presence with our partners and access and inclusion in media output , DM usl or download our Sponsor Kit from the link in bio. Let's Go! -- Spend an evening in a dialog about the future of work for the rapidly growing 50+ population. Diane Harris, Deputy Editor in Chief at Newsweek, will moderate the conversation. Joining her will be Kerry Hannon discussing her new book “In Control at 50+: How to Succeed in the New World of Work” (McGraw Hill) and Bradley Schurman, the founder of The Super Age discussing the research from his forthcoming book “The Super Age: Decoding Our Demographic Destiny” (HarperCollins).from his forthcoming book “The Super Age: Decoding Our Demographic Destiny” (HarperCollins). In DC we're joined by Rick Robinson VP of Startup Engagement at AARP Innovation Labs. **Link in Bio #age@work #transitions #NFM #NextForMe #NextForMeBook #work #change #whatsnext #transformation #job #myjob #office #company #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #grind #mygrind #dayjob #ilovemyjob #dailygrind #photooftheday #business #biz #life #workinglate #computer #instajob #instalife #mindset

This week we’re talking about how so many of us

This week we’re talking about how so many of us are returning to a radically different workplace. Read how some companies are reinventing their requirements for where and how their teams work together. And then we’re asking the question, “Wasn’t all this tech supposed to help us work less, not more?” ARE WE WORKING TOO MUCH? Whatever happened to the idea that with technological progress we’d be working less? Ezra Klein’s latest podcast suggests that the way we work is no longer based on what we need, but by what we want. Klein’s guest James Suzman is an anthropologist who has spent the last 30 years living with and studying the Ju/’hoansi people of southern Africa, one of the world’s enduring hunter-gatherer societies. And that project has given him a unique lens on our modern obsession with work. **Link in Bio

"If you don’t pay appropriate attention to what

"If you don’t pay appropriate attention to what has your attention, it will take more of your attention than it deserves.” ― David Allen, Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity We refer to David Allen’s books and methods in our workshops and quote him extensively in our book. You might say he’s a fountain of quotable quotes. If you’re on your way to what’s next for you, you might want to rethink the way you approach productivity. What’s ahead is full of uncertainty and new ways of doing things, and you’ll want to stay organized. Allen’s approach is very straightforward, but has a certain magic when you’re following the simple steps. We interviewed him after he truly reinvented what was next for him when he and his wife moved their business and lives to Amsterdam. Fearless! Link in bio

“Users can post a TikTok video resume to the sit

“Users can post a TikTok video resume to the site rather than a traditional resume. The idea is for users to give an elevator pitch or work experience summary via the video in a unique way.” If you’ve been suffering through Zoom job interviews in the past year and a half, what’s next might just be even more anxiety inducing. Think bite-sized video resumés. According to Axios, TikTok is beta testing a jobs marketplace where your pitch is central to the recruiting process. You might not be in the GenX audience they’re targeting, but these things move fast and the next big leap might be producing your own video resume. What will be in your script? **Link in Bio #transitions #NFM #NextForMe #NextForMeBook #work #change #whatsnext #transformation #job #myjob #office #company #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #grind #mygrind #dayjob #ilovemyjob #dailygrind #photooftheday #business #biz #life #workinglate #computer #instajob #instalife

"Lockdowns may have eroded people’s swagger, but

"Lockdowns may have eroded people’s swagger, but research suggests there are ways to remedy the situation.” In a recent Guardian story “Why self-belief is a superpower that can be harnessed,” Ian Robertson writes that the words we say to ourselves shape our attention, which controls our emotions, and the result is confidence – or lack of it. With wide-ranging research and storytelling he concludes that confidence is the belief that you can successfully do a particular thing. It is this link to action that differentiates confidence from self-esteem (how good you feel about yourself) or optimism (belief that things will turn out OK). **Link in Bio #transitions #NFM #NextForMe #NextForMeBook #work #change #whatsnext #transformation #job #myjob #office #company #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #grind #mygrind #dayjob #ilovemyjob #dailygrind #photooftheday #business #biz #life #workinglate #computer #instajob #instalife

“What do you want out of life, what gives you jo

“What do you want out of life, what gives you joy, and how do you pay for it?” - Mitch Anthony, author of “Life Centered Financial Planning.” In a recent story in the New York Times, John F. Wasik looks at “longevity planning.” It’s the idea that we’re all living much longer lives, so our work and savings will demand a longer plan. Central to the idea is that “life” planning has to be part of the mix. Longer lives have been tied to improved lifestyle choices and overall medical advances. Add to that practices that stimulate the mind and soul, and the output could be a longer life with a big dollop of contentment.
