Start with one step!

I’ve coached and mentored a lot of people throughout my career.

Firstly with The Real Apprentice now with Growing Talent, I’ve worked with close to 1,000 people I’ve seen make the small, consistent changes to go into jobs they’ve since built into amazing careers.

Over the weekend, I sent my congratulations to someone I saw had secured a senior role with a global creative organisation from the Real Apprentice days.

This is what they said

“Thank you Jane, you were the 1st person to truly give me the change that not many others did and for that I’ll forever be grateful, Your programme helped me during a tough time and I always bring you up when I tell people my story…”

They highlight how true Darren’s quote is. “Small, smart choices + consistency + time = radical change” Author of The Compound Effect, Darren illustrates clearly the best way to reach the radical change you want is to make smart, small, targets to get you there.

Every mountain climbed starts with one step.

Whether I’ve encouraged people to make their affirmations and fake belief in themselves until their mind actually sees how awesome they really are to secure employment or shown drained managers how to take 2 minute timed fun windows throughout their day to build their energy on the I-Act programmes – everything starts with one small step plus the consistency of repetition.

If you’ve got a huge target to achieve – business or personal – don’t focus on the end goal but the smaller ones that will get you there.
