Before you set any goals try understanding your true purpose. What would you like your legacy to be? It doesn’t need to be grand, world changing or even memorable to many, but you’re unique perspective on life can have a positive impact on others no matter how small or significant and when you decide what you’re purpose is, you’re more likely to set easily achievable goals that will enhance your life and those around you.

Irrespective of temporary or permanent, get your intentions clear, what are you willing to learn from this work experience. Because eventually this will add more credibility and confidence in you which will attract greater projects and consignments. Now set goals based on this, very specific and clear.

Staying motivated and maintaining a positive attitude in temporary work involves focusing on the opportunities and benefits it brings. View each temporary assignment as a chance to learn new skills, gain experience, and expand your professional network. Setting personal goals and finding ways to challenge yourself within the role can also help keep you engaged. It's important to stay organized and maintain a routine to ensure productivity and a sense of accomplishment. Celebrate your successes, no matter how small, and reflect on the progress you've made. Keeping a positive mindset by reminding yourself of the long-term benefits and potential opportunities that can arise from temporary work can also be very helpful.

- Define Milestones: Establish clear, short-term objectives to keep you focused. - Celebrate Wins: Acknowledge and reward yourself for achieving small victories. - Visualize Success: Keep a positive outlook on how this temporary role fits into your larger career goals.

One thing I have found helpful is being adaptive to situations and working smartly in those moments. Your sincerely may not give an immediate hike or promotion but it will cultivate a habit which will be one of the niche skills that humans can have. Then it is your world and you can charge as you desire. When you are flexible and working to meet the end outcome, you are winning trust, acceptance and integrity.

- Adapt Quickly: Be open to changing tasks or responsibilities as needed. - Welcome Change: See new challenges as opportunities for growth and learning. - Be Proactive: Take initiative and find ways to add value beyond your assigned duties.

In my experience, if I'm not working, I am learning. There is no other way to growth in life. If you are learning, you are constantly earning. Learning = Earning If you are not learning then you are culturing a rusty brain which leads to a lot of mental conditions like Parkinson's, Alzheimer, Dementia and many more. If you are learning, you are exercising the Brain Gym everyday which will in turn be rewarding for a healthy life. Once you have health, you can acquire anything your health desires. Earning is for a reason, Learning is for a lifetime. So be a student for life and life will also be a celebration.

- Seek Knowledge: Use your time to gain new skills and expand your expertise. - Ask Questions: Don’t hesitate to ask for feedback or clarification to improve. - Build Connections: Network with colleagues to learn from their experiences and insights.

We are social beings and we are incomplete without one another. Maybe we had a difficult time with someone at work but burning the bridge is not the way forward. We need to understand situations from their point of view and forgive them if they have caused any harm to you, yet being in good books as this world is small. And we may need them at some or the other point or vice versa. Yes, some people are seasonal and mend to leave, let them go. In any aspect of life, keep filtering your network because this will become a great support system when we need it the most, let it be for that honest feedback, or motivation or unbiased direction or just a silent listener.

The work maybe temporary but it can change to permanent or leaving a long lasting impression on people about you. That's your attitude - how you handle situations, how you embrace moments of joy & togetherness, how you empathetically connect with people. These feelings will stay forever, in your hearts and in the hearts of others. This is a constant source of oxytocin for you to always fall back on, in moment of low. How people felt around you is more important. How you influenced them which always want them to think of your leadership style. So enjoy every moment of this journey as if it was the best for you & others. It's not all about the work, it's also about how you bond with others, eventually making them to support you in the task.

Facing difficulties, feeling low energy, encountering failures, and seeking clarification are all part of the human journey. These moments allow us to grow, learn, and understand the complexities of life. They shape our skills, deepen our understanding, and help us find our purpose. Without these experiences, life would lack the depth and richness that make us truly human. It's important to embrace these challenges with resilience and patience, knowing they are integral to our personal and professional development. So, let's approach them with a mindset of learning and growth, recognizing that every setback is an opportunity to strengthen ourselves and move forward on our unique paths.
