I help ambitious leaders build strong Executive Presence so that they get rapid career growth and coveted CXO roles I Executive & Leadership Coach I Learning and Development | Training | Talent Management
Yesterday, April 5th was the "National Maritime Day" It is a day celebrated annually to acknowledge the contributions of the maritime industry and the sacrifices made by seafarers to develop international trade and the global economy As per the International Maritime Organization (IMO), up to 90% of the world's goods are transported through maritime trade Many consider shipping an adventurous and glamorous career – visiting exotic ports, fighting off pirates, dealing with hurricanes, navigating through icebergs etc etc You read about romanticism on high seas in novels, you watch pirate movies and you end up conjuring a very glamorous picture about the profession But the reality is different. Very different Being a seafarer myself, I know that it’s a very challenging and demanding career ..Staying away from family for months ..Seeing only water all around for days ..Exposure to extreme climatic conditions ..Hazardous workplace conditions on ships ..Strict maritime regulations and enforcements ..Threat of piracy. Hijacking Even the stay in ports have become extremely short. So much so that many a times, there is no time to step off the ship, so you end up spending most of the time on the ship itself, with little physical connect with the outside world Why am I telling this? Because the grass always appears greener on the other side You always think that someone's job is better Ironically, they think that your job or some other job is better And so on.... However, only you know how tough your job is. Other’s don’t, right? But you also know how to do it well. You're good at it So wherever, whatever your job is - Respect it You may dislike some part of your job. That's fine, as it happens with all jobs No job is exciting in the long run. It becomes monotonous eventually Your job puts food on the table, helps you pay your bills Stop comparing. Stop complaining The grass on the other side is dry. It’s thorny. It's artificial. It is not as green as you would imagine Water the grass on your side. Make it lush and green Respect your job. Work hard. Give your best! #jobs #careers #maritime #marine
