This week on GoalChatLive I brought together some fabulous entrepreneurs for a conversation on business careers: Business Coach and Podcaster Jon Dwoskin; Sales Champion and Founder of Why Sales Network Joyce Johnson; and Organic Social Media Specialist and Virtual Summit Host Dorien Morin-van Dam.
Jon, Joyce, and Dorien shared their backstories of how they got into their specialties of leadership, sales, and social media; as well as their favorite parts of their careers, along with the challenges.
We also discussed:
- Hidden sales careers … how sales is a component of nearly every career
- The value of alignment and fulfillment in your career
- How work-life balance … isn’t
- And much more

Your Goals for Career Development
- Jon: Spend a couple of minutes and figure out what characteristic of yourself you would fire. And rehire another version of yourself.
- Dorien: If you are working on your physical well-being you will be able to do more. Do something to move forward physically.
- Joyce: If you are unhappy in the career space, avoid the titles. Write down the things you like to do and what you want to accomplish by doing those things.
- Deb: Use my system of Directed Journaling to figure out some or all of the above … or to explore what’s next for you.
Final Thoughts
- Jon: Slow down if you want to speed up.
- Dorien: Take time away from your electronic connections.
- Joyce: Success is in the details. Execute
- Deb: You can do it!
