Spring clean your career
While the traditional idea of "spring cleaning" may not seem like your style, it's a great time to go through your life and your career to figure out what you'd like to do differently as you enter the next part of the year.
1. Get your finances figured out
Easy-to-use budget app, Mint has been consistently rated one of the top personal finance apps. The app is super easy to budget and track expenses and it even takes care of your credit cards.
2. Ever dreamed of Inbox Zero?
Clear thousands of emails out of your inbox ASAP with Unroll.me which takes care of all those unnecessary subscriptions. And turn deleting emails into a fun exercise complete with points and tasks with The Email Game.
3. Get your resumes up to speed
If you're looking for a job this spring, consider updating your resume. Try out a new template and definitely take out all those bits left lying around since high school. A couple of small edits to your LinkedIn profile and you'll be ready to network with anyone.
4. Make it a goal to finish your to-do lists
Don't overthink to-do lists, just change your approach. Divide up work into tiny 5-minute chunks. Reward yourself and most importantly, get pumped up about whatever it is you're planning to work on. If you're not excited about, consider if it's important or not; if it's not, eliminate it from your list all together.
5. Put your weekends to use
Spend a weekend learning a job-boosting skill or two. Learn the basics of a new language or volunteer for a local cause. Try out the free Core-K course of the week (linked below) and revitalise your workplace persona.
