Stop thinking you’re stuck.

Stop thinking you can’t pivot.

Stop thinking it’s too late.

I was 17 years in the restaurant business before I changed to financial services.

I was 15 years in financial services when I published my first book.

I was 22 years in financial services when I started coaching.

You are what you think you are.

Start thinking you can.

Curious just how old are you?Or were these parallel careers.

Late forties.

In my experience there has always been a period of overlap between transitions.

It’s a safe way to pivot and maintain a lifestyle.

I’m currently coaching and working my 9-5 for example. But that won’t be the case forever. I will eventually leave the 9-5 and coach full time because I love helping people make positive changes in their lives.

The main point I want to make is YOU have the power to pivot.

It’s a choice you make.

It starts with thinking you CAN.

I would like to transfer my career to Healthcare Data Analytics. I’m gaining my data analytics certification by the ending of November.

Hi Fishes,
I need some advice. I joined TCS as a lateral recruitment with 3.5 YOE. For the last 4 months I've been allocated to an account without any work. (i have won/swon) I have had 4,5 client interviews, one went below average others went pretty good or at least decent.
Is there anything extra i should do from my end apart from brushing up my knowledge?
In this WFH, not sure whom to approach about these as my supervisor also keeps changing within the same account. Kindly suggest. TIA

But on the other hand, I'm very keen on learning the ML part... still need to sharpen my programming skills tho.
