    How to Actually Follow Through with Long-Term Goals

    October 3, 2019 /

    I know all too well what it’s like to start the day off with the best intentions only to flake faster than a day-old croissant.  Because let’s face it, knowing how to actually follow through on goals is hard. Especially the long-term ones. And there always seems to be some external factor at play that prevents you from following through.  Like when I was going to sit down and write an article, but couldn’t because my inbox was exploding and I just had to spend the next hour answering emails. Or when I was going to make a healthy lunch to bring to work but there just wasn’t enough time…

    Transformative New Year’s Resolution Ideas That Will Stick

    December 9, 2018 /

    There seems to be two extremes when it comes to New Year’s resolution ideas: Those who think they’re pointless, and those who hang all their hopes and dreams on them. (And usually give up on them within days.) I think somewhere in the middle is where the magic can happen. Yes, personal development is something you can (and should) focus on any time of the year, not just New Year’s Day. But for many, the new year is a natural springboard for launching some new healthy habits. So if Jan 1 is motivating you to make some positive changes, go ahead and take advantage! ** My blog posts contain affiliate…

    How to Be Confident: 10 Ways to Grow Your Self-Assurance

    September 30, 2018 /

    “I wish I was more confident.” It’s a sentence that we’ve probably all uttered at some point in our lives. I know I have. There’s no denying that confidence is a pretty key component to success in life. And yet, understanding how to be confident remains an elusive element for many people, particularly for women. The evidence of this is all the more pronounced in the office. Studies show that the gender pay gap is partly because women simply don’t ask for raises. And when they do, they request up to 30% less than their male counterparts! It’s not because of a lack of competence. But the reality is that…

    How to Be Successful: What My Dad Taught Me About Success

    September 23, 2018 /

    At its core, The Fit Careerist is about discovering how to be successful in life. And so although this is a deeply personal post and different from the type of content I usually write, I believe it is the most important one yet. It’s only within the past couple of years that I have experienced a pull to start my own business. But I have been determined to build a successful career for myself ever since I graduated from college. I credit a lot of this drive and confidence to my father, John Alexander. Without his loving influence, encouragement, and wisdom, I know I would not be where I am…

    How an Early Morning Routine Can Lead to Success

    July 10, 2018 /

    I confess, I’ve become the type of person I used to be secretly annoyed with. I’ve become a morning person. In fact, the morning is now my favorite time of day. (Albeit, more so on weekends!) I’m not going to lie. My obsession with coffee likely plays a significant role in my willingness to be a morning lark. But while I’ve always loved coffee, I haven’t always loved mornings. In fact, until recently, I dreaded the alarm clock with every fiber of my being. Although I was disciplined enough to make it to work on time, my mornings were always a rushed, stressful event. ** My blog posts contain affiliate…

    5 Life-Changing Personal Development Books to Read This Year

    July 1, 2018 /

    I was always on the lookout for new books to read when I was younger. At one point in my early twenties, I was averaging a book a week. But the habit waned as I neared my thirties and got swept up with work and other responsibilities.  Then I went on a week-long vacation to the Caribbean this past winter and rediscovered my love of reading. I read three novels during my stay! After my vacation was over, I vowed that I would reestablish a reading habit. I committed to reading at least two new books a month. So far, I’ve been able to stick to this goal through the…

    The Top 3 Career Mistakes That Are Holding You Back

    June 24, 2018 /

    Your “career path” can seem like this mystical, esoteric thing. After all, there’s no tried and true guidebook that dictates a clear “career path” for anybody. No matter what the industry, there will always be some variation as to how you will get to where you’re going. No, it’s less of a path and more a labyrinth. Except instead of having to contend with menacing Muppets ruled by David Bowie, you must navigate the nuances of office politics while still making a positive impression on senior management.  It’s no wonder then, that so many of us lose our way when trying to reach our long term career goals. But while…
