This is the moment you hit ‘Refresh’ in your Personal Branding
A great story helps you without you doing anything! It talks for you, and people like it
When It’s Time to Start Fresh:
1. People Don’t Remember You.
If friends can’t say what you do in one sentence, that’s not good. Your story should be easy to understand. If it’s not, people forget you.
2. You’ve Learned New Things, But Your Story Is Old.
You got better, but your story stayed the same. That’s not fair to you! If your story still talks about old stuff, it’s time for a change.
3. No One Is Calling You.
Are you waiting for cool jobs or fun projects? If they don’t come, maybe your story needs to be better. A good story makes people excited to work with you.
4. Your Online Stuff Is Messy.
Your LinkedIn says one thing, but your website says something else. That can be confusing! A fresh start means making everything match.
5. You’re Hiding.
Are you staying in the same place and not trying new things? If your story isn’t helping you go big, it’s time to make it better.
What Happens When You Do It Right?
A great story helps you without you doing anything! It talks for you, and people like it.
Here’s what happens:
People Listen. Because now, your story is fun and easy to hear.
Cool Things Come to You. No more running after them; they find you!
You Feel Happy. When your story matches who you are, you feel good.
What Can You Do Now?
Fixing your story doesn’t mean starting over. It means making it better.
Start here:
Look at What You Have. What do you like? What needs to go?
Make Your Story Clear. Tell people where you want to go next.
Show Up. Be where people can see you, online and in real life.
Be Yourself. Fixing your story doesn’t mean pretending.
Your story is what people think about you. Make sure it tells the right tale.
Every job teaches. Every problem helps. And through it all, we try to make something really special.
