You’ve shown up.

You’ve taken action.

You’ve built clarity, confidence, and momentum.

But now comes the part that really matters:

What will you carry forward?

It’s easy to be inspired during a challenge or campaign.
What’s harder—but more impactful—is learning how to sustain that growth once the calendar flips.

Here’s how to turn the energy of September into a career habit that propels you into Q4—and beyond.

1. Reflect on What Worked (and What Didn’t)

Before rushing into “what’s next,” pause and review:

• What actions energized you most?

• What practices made you feel clear and confident?

• What habits fell off (and why)?

• What would you do differently if you had a do-over?

Clarity requires reflection.
You don’t have to do more. You have to do what matters most—consistently.

2. Identify Your Non-Negotiables

Which practices from this month need to become regular routines?

Examples:

• Weekly LinkedIn post

• 1 career conversation per week

• Monthly resume update

• Quarterly clarity check-in

• Weekly reflection journal

Choose 1–3. That’s enough to start sustainable momentum.

3. Build a Monthly or Weekly Career Routine

Set a recurring time for:

• Brand maintenance

• Goal alignment

• Visibility strategy

• Networking and relationship-building

• Personal/professional reflection

If you don’t schedule your career, your calendar will fill with everyone else’s priorities.

4. Create Accountability That Matches Your Style

Some people need a coach.
Others need a calendar.
Some thrive in community.
Others need quiet structure.

Ask yourself:

“What kind of accountability actually works for me?”

Then build it—your way.

5. Celebrate the Wins, Big or Small

Growth isn’t always loud.
If you posted for the first time this month, that’s a win.
If you finally updated your resume, that’s a win.
If you got clear on your next step, that’s a win.

Write down 3 wins from this month—and thank the version of you who showed up for them.

💡 Coach Tamara’s Insight

“Momentum is built in moments. The professionals who grow the fastest aren’t always the loudest—they’re the most consistent.”

You don’t need another surge.

You need to trust yourself to keep going, even when it’s quiet.
