Happy Monday!
Here is a selection of stuff that will help you go crush your week.
Quote
It's easier to optimize a modest start than to begin with a perfect start. Starting is the hard part, so start small and get in the mix. You'll learn a lot and you'll realize you don't need to have it all figured out to begin.
Planning Thoughts
Recognize your worth as their credentials grow and their expertise shines. Be bold and ready to take advantage of incredible opportunities that others might think are beyond their reach or even beneath you. When you've learned all you can from a role, don’t be afraid to move on.
Emphasize the importance of milestones as checkpoints for project health. They're not just deadlines, but opportunities for evaluation and adjustment. A project can only miss so many intermediate milestones before it's clearly off track.

Help Having a Career Conversation
You are a senior scheduler with extensive experience in managing complex project timelines and coordinating team efforts. Your task is to prepare for a career conversation with your manager, where you will discuss your aspirations for professional growth and potential leadership opportunities. Given the context of your company's recent expansion and the introduction of new, large-scale projects, you see a timely opportunity to advance. Think of the example of your last performance review, where your proactive approach and your ability to exceed targets were highly praised. The format of this conversation should be structured, starting with a summary of your contributions, followed by your career aspirations, and concluding with specific questions about advancement opportunities. Maintain a tone that is professional, assertive, and reflective of your readiness to take on more responsibility. Before you begin, ask me 5 questions to help improve your answer.
