Discovering My Journey: Career Growth and Personal Development
Written on
Chapter 1: My Passion for Writing
I focus on various topics such as career advancement, setting goals, managing time, enhancing productivity, creating a second brain, and exploring books and gadgets. In my writings, you'll uncover actionable advice aimed at helping you identify your aspirations, formulate your objectives, and realize them through everyday practices. I hold education, career, personal finances, and relationships with friends and family in high regard. A significant change in your life can be achieved by committing to a small weekly action in each of these areas.
Here’s a glimpse into my journey: I am both a writer and a YouTuber.
Writing brings me mental clarity and fosters a sense of calm and organization. Three years back, I began sharing my thoughts on Medium, and last year, I launched my YouTube channel. A pivotal moment for me was witnessing 150,000 views on my articles monthly.
If I were to offer a single piece of advice for personal and professional development, it would be to immerse yourself in reading.
In 2019, I read 58 books, while in 2018, I managed to read 40. Books provide not only knowledge but also broaden your imagination, allowing you to experience a range of emotions. Depending on the genre, reading can evoke laughter, tears, fear, or courage. The act of reading is indeed a treasure for humanity.
Audiobooks are an effective way to consume literature. You can enjoy them while engaging in household tasks like making tea, organizing mail, watering plants, washing dishes, or even waiting in line.
I serve as a leader at AdventHealth.
In my role, I play a vital part in AdventHealth’s Agile transformation for our consumer products, including the AdventHealth Mobile App. Our team consists of five product managers, two scrum masters, and around 50 engineers. I take pleasure in mentoring my colleagues to help them discover their strengths and passions, facilitating their career transformations. Notable examples include guiding an application analyst to become a project manager and a communication specialist to evolve into a development manager. One of my key strengths is uniting people to create solutions.
Gardening and storytelling are hobbies I cherish.
Both pursuits require nurturing seeds, daily care, and patience before you can enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Why connect with me? Your transformation starts with self-awareness—understanding your identity, what inspires you, and what energizes you. Join me on this journey to uncover your aspirations and define your future. I write about career paths, dreams, goals, time management, and the power of reading.
