Old Brain, New Tricks: Getting Promoted and Better Paid
After four years on my handy dandy iPhone SE (the smaller one), I upgraded to iPhone 14 last week.
My life partner was helping me get set up, and he showed me two things that blew my mind:
1. The tiny battery icon on the far right corner of the screen can show % of battery remaining. I said oh, how cool.
He said, "Um, that was part of your settings on your old phone, too."
2. I swipe down for the control panel and see an Apple TV Remote baked right into it.
How convenient, I think, and realize, yet again, that was another cool feature of my older phone, too.
Sometimes, when you’re a Luddite like me, you take your sweet a$$ time appreciating the magic of technology. I may be a tech Luddite, but I am rich in coaching metaphors. Like this -
We don’t realize there is an inner organization to how our brains process information and generate perception. Kinda like how I didn’t know how to best utilize some of the most basic iPhone settings…
Like the iPhone, learning the inner logic of our brains is user-friendly and doesn’t require a science degree.
You can become skilled at using this inner logic to help you generate more confidence, get promoted, and get better paid.
I used this skill to help me go from being a chronically stressed, sick, and insecure junior analyst to, now, being resourced well enough to help smart women make strides into the C-Suite.
Even while being a tech Luddite.
This isn’t to say I’m better than you. Nor is it to say that getting promoted into the C-Suite is the goal of life.
What I want to convey is that ANYONE can learn how to use the inner logic of the brain to create a better experience -- no matter how inadequate we may feel in certain areas of our lives.
This is the work we do inside my 1:1 coaching series.
If you want to upgrade your career experience -- like going from iPhone SE to 14 (or better), you're invited to book your free consultation with me.
The change work starts right inside the consultation. Most people experience a shift right away.
Then, if and only if you feel there's a fit for your specific needs, we discuss how we can work together.
