I often write reference letters for my former students and those who worked with me. I don't always say yes to a reference letter request if I feel that my reference letters cannot help an applicant. I had a hard decision last year when one of my former undergrad students asked me to write a... Continue Reading →
How to Land a Dream Job?
I occasionally help clients looking for a job or switching to a new position in my coaching services. I don't prioritise this service in my coaching services because 1) there are heaps of 'tips' on the Internet, and 2) each person's situation is different, so coaching for interviews or CV preparation needs to be customised...

Learn to Coach Yourself
Happy New Year, my readers! ^_^ I met a few potential coaching clients online or in-person last year. Some thought that they could coach themselves, because they can find many coaching related materials freely available online.

Procrastination and How to Stop it with Science

2021 Rewind and Reflection
We all have just gone through 2021 in a mixed mood. Before I wrote this reflection, I read again my reflection blog post on 2020. Then I found some 'continuing' themes that we perhaps didn't enjoy that much. Yes, we were still under the influence of the COVID most of 2021, although we had the... Continue Reading →
Reverse-engineer and change your life
In conventional life coaching, we usually coach a client to set up a goal, then design an action plan. This is followed by regular catch-up sessions to ensure that action plans are executed. If not, then we work with the client on improvements. After years of using this 'formula' in my coaching business, I found... Continue Reading →
The key driver to achieve goals- a sense of urgency
Many things will get done when you feel a strong sense of urgency. Have you ever done your homework the night before its due date? (I have!) When I looked at the assignment online submission time of my classes last year, more than half assignments were submitted in less than 30 minutes to the deadline.... Continue Reading →

何時停止漂來漂去的生活和事業(三)如何停止漂流?
一旦意識到自己已經在生活或事業中漂流,阻止它的最好方法就是尋找一個“地標”,並儘快地使自己擺脫困境。聽起來很簡單,不是嗎? 地標應該是一個很清楚的標地物,讓你即使在夜晚也不會錯過它。 事實是,這並不容易做到。尋找地標需要你知道選擇哪種“地標”,因為它必須對你足夠清楚,好讓你可以將自己帶回到岸上。如果你正在事業中漂流,那麼停止漂流的最佳方法是為自己找到人生和事業的新目標。如果你不喜歡目前的工作,那麼你的目標可以是你理想中的工作,更高的職位,或新的職業。 了解你喜歡(或不喜歡)什麼的重要性就是從這裡開始。如果你清楚地知道自己想要什麼,那麼尋找地標這回事就變得很容易。再來,你需要的是一個行動計劃,才能達到你的目標。如果你不知道自己喜歡什麼,但是知道自己不喜歡什麼,那也還不錯。只要避免你不喜歡的事物或工作,然後選擇你可以接受的工作。如果你不知道自己喜歡什麼,也不知道自己不喜歡什麼,那麼你的挑戰就大了些。 運氣是漂流人生最重要的動力,可是好運不會不停地來。 大多數人都不知道自己想要什麼,所以他們只是在職業和生活中“不斷前進”。這是經典的漂流,而且它幾乎可以保證你將擁有一個普普通通的人生。如果你的事業或人生屬於這一類的話,我建議你找一名職業或生活教練來指導你,並重建自己的生活。你需要一個好的計劃來升級你的人生。在這方面,我可以為你提供專業的諮詢與協助。請通過REEAConsulting(at)gmail.com電郵與我聯繫,並訂閱我的博客。 吳政隆博士@ REEAConsulting.com 想要升級你的人生嗎?立刻參加瑞亞菁英指導服務!
