Deborah Brown-Volkman, a certified professional coach, says, "What's great about the new year is that it's like a do-over. You've completed the last year, and now you can start all over again." 有专业认证的职业培训师Deborah Brown-Volkman说：“新年的好处就是可以从头再来；去年已经过完，现在你又能重新开始。”

孤军奋战总是很容易放弃、也使奋斗历程更加艰辛。尽一切可能获得支持，会帮助你更好地建设事业。

Get the Necessary Support

获得必要的支持

If your plan for advancement involves your boss, be sure you position it properly to her. Coach Brown-Volkman reveals, "When enlisting your supervisor's support, you have to make sure you focus on what's important to your boss and the company. If it's all about you, it won't work." If you feel isolated in your job or your quest for change, enlist the people around you. "Reach out to your colleagues for support," she says. 如果你的发展计划涉及到你的老板，那么确保以正确的方式把计划呈现给她。 Brown-Volkman培训师说：“当你向上级寻求帮助时，你要把重点放在那些对老板、对公司重要的事情上。如果关系到的只有你一个人，那么就行不通。”如果在工作中或请求改变中感到孤立无援，可以让周围的人们来帮助你。她建议“从你的同事们那里获得支持”。

Brown-Volkman urges everyone to start the New Year with a new plan for their career. "People who are unhappy are people who feel trapped, who haven't created a game plan for what's next. Any time you don't have a bigger picture in mind, the day-to-day gets to you, and your career can come to a standstill." Brown-Volkman鼓励每个人用新的职业计划来开始新的一年。“不快乐的是那些感到难以前进的人们，是还没有对未来做好打算的人们。任何时候如果脑子里没有一个总体计划，就只是做一天和尚撞一天钟，你的事业也会停止发展。”(the end)
