I love reading online manifestos! They are a great way to quickly get inspired, motivated, and educated. This week, I’d like to share a manifesto that very well could be one of my favorites that I’ve ever read. Taken from changethis.com, a site brimming with manifestos, The Young Professional Rockstar is a guide to rocking your world. Young or young at heart, everyone can take something from this manifesto in my opinion.
Admittedly, however, this manifesto is more geared towards the emerging professional just entering the workforce. It focuses a lot on personal branding, identity, and things that can really help a young professional make an easy transition to “working” life.
Taking the learning journey one step at a time, it takes a ten-step approach. Part one, Access, focuses on accessing your inner qualities and recognizing the core competencies you are built upon. Giving tips on controlling your brand image and setting a direction for where you want your goals to take you close down the first section.
What I like about this manifesto is the inclusion of action steps that follow each introduction to the certain points of reference. The second part begins with just that-Action. It does a great job at advising you how to make valuable connections, market yourself, stand out from the crowd, as well as push yourself out of your comfort zone. I find these tools incredibly useful at creating needed change to diversify your personal skills and income. The final part, Advance, encourages you to “rock it from anywhere and everywhere” and to keep growing!
My favorite action steps, or personal coaching tools, listed in this manifesto include:
- Creating a “rockstar vision book”
- Develop your “rockstar statement”
- and finally, creating time for growth
