I spend more money on a couple of fancy dinners than on career development…?!

Said a recent client when he told me that he had read my book Career Path of Abundance several years ago and wanted to call but he was worried about spending money.  He told me that he had an epiphany while he was taking his girlfriend out to a restaurant that he felt wasn’t even worth the money.  “Why did I just spend this money on a subpar dinner when I could get help in a. major area of my life? Career Counseling Connecticut was started with a distinct mission: help people find work that makes them feel happy and successful. I have always had a tortured relationship with running a “helping others” business.  Even after 20 years, I find the financial part of the business the least enjoyable.  But… I understood my client’s point (and I’ve heard variations of that theme over and over… “I spend about 1000 a year on a gym membership…. I just bought a video game system that costs more… I probably spent more money on alcohol last month than our meeting!” Your career is a lot of life. If you are not happy in your career, you will not be happy in “a lot of life.”  We can help.
