LinkedIn is your career future & your first impression

What my clients say after optimizing their LinkedIn profile

Now it’s time to work on your profile. But before you start editing ask yourself these questions:

What is My Goal in using LinkedIn?
🟠What am I trying to achieve on LinkedIn?
🟠Am I looking for a new job?
🟠Am I looking for clients?
🟠Is it my place where I can build a great network?
🟠Is it only for personal development and learning?

Who is My Target Audience?
🟠Who am I professionally?
🟠What am I trying to offer?
🟠Who is my targeted people/audience?
🟠How do I want to present myself to them?
🟠What’s important to them?
🟠What would make them comfortable connecting with me?
🟠What makes them interested to take my call or email?

Once you strategically answer all the above questions, can start optimizing your LinkedIn profile and you will immediately see awesome results.

LinkedIn is your professional presence to the world.

It is all about you and how you want the world to know you, you can shape that image and decide what to convey.

LinkedIn enables people to know more about who you are and what value you can bring to their teams and organization, so give them the right message.

And if you’re not comfortable writing that by yourself and need some guidance, you can outsource it.

Back to work, back to what I love to do… connecting and growing my LinkedIn professional network and practising Career Coaching.

During the last five weeks I did the following:

✔️ Successfully held a few business meetings

​✔️I Disconnected 90% from social media and work and I took some time for self-reflection

​​✔️I enjoyed observing people around me, and observing their emotions – this gives me a proper description of the surroundings and helps me to analyse myself to behave accordingly

​✔️Not using social media helped me to enjoy every moment of the vacation and practice mindfulness quietly

​✔️I enjoyed the space of mind I made for myself and successfully created a to-do list for my first work week

​✔️I was back 3 days ago and I organized my office desktop area, organized the new books I brought with me, and created lists of simple tasks to organize my mind

​✔️I checked my inbox to get updates

​✔️and most importantly I started to go to sleep earlier

 

Why I did all this because this work organization gives me a feeling of control that raises my motivation

I did all this considering leaving some space for pauses so I do not feel overwhelmed after a long break

simply this is what I did

If you want to be productive for more than just 1-2 days a week after a long break, you can easily follow your own plan to organize your time, this will help you to tune to your working rhythm smoothly

my advice to you is don’t push yourself to change your routine completely in a day.

A step-by-step approach takes more time, but it is much more stable

A wonderful Friday morning in Tripoli

A wonderful Friday morning in Tripoli.

A visit to the fish market to witness very energetic young workers

Making their daily duties very fast and professionally

My order was served very fast, not only did they prepare and clean my order but also they provided advice,

Tips and tricks on how to differentiate fresh fish from frozen

And, Tips on how to cook and prepare

All this was with a smile

They were approachable, educated

Know how to approach their customers

Know how to communicate

Able to quickly connect with clients

They know what they do and care about their customers

They reflected honesty, care, and authenticity

Now,
What do you do to go the extra mile?
