003 - Nikki recaps the last two episodes and talks about self-belief. What makes some people pick themselves up time and time again and how do you keep going when you get a knock-back? Why do we start our lives believing we can do anything then slowly put ourselves into a comfort zone cage?   We listen to the stories of those who fought the odds to succeed and discuss how failure can sometimes be a great thing!   For a dose of career inspiration after a knock-back or rejection this is the episode to listen to.

3 Career Takeaways

1) On Rejection: “It gives you another opportunity for growth, it gives you another chance, it gives you a different avenue to go down. And maybe that avenue wasn't the right one for you at that time. But if you keep pushing forward and you keep trying, maybe it's that avenue eventually.” 2) On Gratitude: “If you enjoy what you have, slowly, you'll start to figure out what it is that you want to do, or what the next step of your journey is.” 3) On Self-Belief: “The only person that puts restrictions on you is you.”   A Podcast Company -
