Momentum in All Areas of Life
What if you made 1% progress is all areas of life, each day?
- Career skills
- Career portfolio
- Career connections
- Health
- Finance
- Relationships
- Personal growth/wellness
- Hobbies/Fun
When you play the long game and focus on daily progress, one day you'll look up and realize you're living in abundance.
Be MORE Dissatisfied?
Hey you, why do you keep tolerating, settling, and staying in the gray area of life?
Your current career is "OK" and helps you "get by."
So you do nothing.
But really, you're pretending. Because deep down, you're dissatisfied.
Can you feel dissatisfaction more? 10% more? 20%?
Take charge and look to shift into a new direction.
That's where the people at Coding Temple can come in. If you are even slightly curious about learning to code, they can guide and nurture you to a brand new career in tech.
Coding can be a rewarding experience. As Joel Carter, instructor at Coding Temple says, "When I started programming, I was looking for the dopamine that happens after you solve something for the first time."

This post from the Superpath blog gives 20+ tips and tools to improve your pay. It's written for content marketers, but no matter your role you can gain value from this one!
"When companies are scaling back on hiring, negotiating may feel like self-sabotage. You don’t want to lose the job you’ve spent weeks or months interviewing for by seeming too demanding. But there’s nothing wrong with asking for compensation that matches the value you bring to the table."

Remove Mental Blocks
But do you also have subconscious weeds in your garden?
Deep down do you believe...
"Failure isn't safe...."
"I'm not confident enough...."
"I'm not enough."
If you concluded these as a child, like many of us did growing up in school, then you may be trying to drive with the emergency brake on!
Good news is...I can help. I can prune your weeds. In my coaching, I can remove "I'm not enough" or any other subconscious belief from your mind.
The belief will be gone as fast as you realized Santa Claus wasn't real. \
Life changed, forever and instantly.
Invest in yourself. Start coaching now.

"It's amazing how much good work can be done in just 55 minutes. Taking that time was a big game changer for me in turning the corner towards taking action in my career goals. Joel's great! Highly recommend!"
