A Woman With 7 Income Streams Explains Why Its One of the Best Things You Can Do For Your Career

A Woman With 7 Income Streams Explains Why It's One of the Best Things You Can Do For Your Career In 2001, Dorie Clark was working as a political reporter. It was her first job out of grad school. One day the director of human resources called her into his office. “I thought perhaps they were changing our dental plan,” she recounts in her new book, “Entrepreneurial You.” “Instead, I got laid off â€" effective immediately.” Today, Clark is a marketing strategist, an adjunct professor of business administration at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, and the author of multiple books, the most recent of which is “Entrepreneurial You.” On an episode of The Art of Charm podcast, Clark explained the value of diversifying your income streams and professional pursuits, so that should you meet a fate like she did in 2001, you won’t be devastated. Here’s Clark: “Everybody knows if you have money, you shouldn’t invest it all in one stock. Everybody knows that’s a bad idea. You need to diversify there. “But for our jobs, for how we make money, I think many of us â€" most of us â€" have one way we make money. It can be very risky. I’ve really come to believe, and have done a lot of research over the years, that one of the best ways that we can create real, legitimate professional stability for ourselves is by choosing to cultivate multiple income streams. “That’s certainly true for entrepreneurs, but even for people who work inside a company, cultivating a side income stream of some sort â€" whether it’s having an Etsy store on the side, or doing a little bit of coaching or having a workshop now and then, whatever it is, doing a little bit of paid speaking â€" having that sideline gives you additional protection against uncertainty and also has a lot of other benefits. “Frankly it helps you build your skills; it helps you develop your brand.” In the book, Clark writes that she currently earns a living from seven sources: writing books, speaking, teaching at a business school, consulting, executive coaching, running online courses, and generating affiliate income through her email list. On the podcast, Clark shared another story that illustrates the power of diversifying your career, drawn from “Entrepreneurial You.” Lenny Achan started his career as a nurse at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City; on the side, he was developing apps. His boss found out and was impressed, and gave him the chance to head up social media for the hospital. Achan accepted the opportunity and performed so well that he subsequently became the head of communications at Mount Sinai. Leonardo da Vinci is another example of someone who was a “wide achiever,” in the words of Roman Krznaric, author of “How to Find Fulfilling Work.” Da Vinci was alternately a portraitist, an inventor, and a scientist. Krznaric says that in light of decreasing job security today, spreading yourself among several different jobs, as da Vinci did, is probably a smart thing to do. In “Entrepreneurial You,” Clark quotes Jenny Blake, a former Googler, a career coach, and the author of “Pivot.” Blake said when she was starting to build her speaking business, she relied on one-on-one coaching sessions to provide “bridge income.” That is, even though speaking was her passion, she wasn’t yet earning enough from her speaking gigs to support herself â€" the income bridged the gap between two career phases. Clark offers a free online assessment to see how you can start diversifying your income and career. But there are plenty of so-called “side gigs” you can take up, from web designer (up to $32 an hour) to group fitness instructor (up to $41 an hour).

Are You Truly Committed To Your New Years Resolutions - Work It Daily

Are You Truly Committed To Your New Year’s Resolutions - Work It Daily A good friend of mine recently sent me his New Year’s resolutions: Be here now. Keep it real. Try to answer e-mail promptly. I was taken aback by number three. First, it was the only one that required specific action, and I wondered why he would choose returning e-mails above all the other important actions to take in this world, and over a more general commitment to “Keep in close and regular contact with people important to me” or “Take action quickly on items of importance.” Even more than that, however, I was struck by the insertion of the word “Try.” Is Trying Lying? I have spent the last 10 years or so reducing the incidence of the word “try” in my spoken and written communications. In a women’s empowerment program I was taught, “Trying is lying.” In a completely different seminar, the instructor had someone hold a tissue box in the air and said, “Try to drop the tissue box.” The person dropped the tissue box, and was met with, “No, you just dropped the tissue box. I told you to try to drop the tissue box.” In another seminar, a different instructor did the same exercise, asking a participant to “Try to pick up that chair.” Trying to pick it up looked like holding on to the chair and pretending to pick it up but not actually doing it. “Trying” to do something, as illustrated in these examples, is as good as not doing the thing at all. You’re not doing it, and you’re not not doing it. Trying leaves you in an in-between place that, in my understanding, is ultimately powerless and ineffective. Excuses, Excuses We as human beings often use trying as an excuse. Have you gotten that project done? “No... but I tried! I just kept getting distracted.” Have you lost the weight you said you would? “No... but I tried.” Why isn’t your relationship going the way you want it to? “I don’t know... I’m trying so hard to make it work.” We say things like “I’ll try to be there on time” so if we’re not on time we haven’t broken a promise. We human beings are so sneaky! Ultimately, a choice is required. Either you do it or you don’t. If you don’t do it, I believe the most powerful stance is to take responsibility that you didn’t do it. If you’re still committed to a result, then do something else that works to get that result. As another wise person pointed out, the way to attain any goal in life is to keep taking action until you achieve it. Sounds so simple doesn’t it? Compassion Is Key My New Year’s resolution friend disagreed with my take on trying. He wrote, “I affirm the importance of stating, ‘I will try.’ It’s like saying, ‘I intend... .’ It sends a message â€" to myself and others â€" about how I am organizing my spiritual energies.” When I asked why he didn’t write “Try” for his other resolutions, he responded, “... It’s the only one of the three that doesn’t come to me naturally. So I must try harder. ” (He also mentioned if following number three were to contradict number one and/or number two, he would choose not to follow number three. We have all seen the negative consequences of impulsive or compulsive e-mailing!) I understand the value of compassion, and I understand we sometimes go through stages in our level of commitment to a goal. Perhaps a gentle entry (like a promise to “try”) can be useful for taking on promises we don’t know if we will keep. Certainly, if we don’t meet one of our promises, it doesn’t help to beat ourselves up about it. Using the word “try” lets us succeed even when we fail. But can’t we have compassion even if we frame our promises as absolute? If I resolve to “answer e-mail promptly” instead of to “try” to do so, and then I don’t answer promptly, I might be empowered by acknowledging I didn’t do it, looking at why I didn’t do it, and, if appropriate, making a new promise or doing it a different way next time. To me, that’s “keeping it real.” Honesty â€" The Best Policy New Year’s resolutions are notoriously not kept, and I wonder if the reason is people put a silent, implied “Try” before every one of them. If we truly resolve to do something, rather than to try to do it, we live a more powerful life and one where results will show up with more reliability. At least my friend put “try” where it could be seen, instead of pretending something was true that was not. A straightforward acknowledgement of one’s tendency toward fallibility might be more powerful than having “trying” live in the unsaid. At least with an honest promise, there’s room to grow. In the end, we must each choose the language and intention that work for us, in service of living up to our greatest promises and resolutions. Enjoy this article?
