Courage can come from building confidence. And confidence comes from competence. What are the things in your personal life that you’re really good at? How can you carry over that competence into new areas of life? That will give you the confidence, and thus courage, to make those bold changes and start moving forward. 7. Change your routine During this step, focus on clearing space in your life, and in your mind, for this reinvention process to take place. That means getting clear on your most important goals. Create some reinvention goals, find a role model to help you stay motivated, and focus on developing and following a plan that allows you to intentionally reinvent yourself. Realistic goals are the key, you won’t accomplish self reinvention overnight. It takes time. Small monthly goals are a good start. 5. Learn to try things out You are much more powerful when you are calm than when you are screaming. Screaming is a sign of psychological defeat." p. 290

Then perhaps it’s time for a change. Whether you’re 30, 40, or 50, a midlife career change is never out of the question. In fact, the average age someone switches careers is 39, according to a survey by Indeed. Fourth, brush up on yourself. Craft your body language so it radiates professionalism, ask the best standout interview questions, and know what to say when you inevitably get asked, “What do you do?” Reinvention can sound exciting. Yet the idea (and process) of reinventing yourself is daunting for many people. It can take a lot of work to change who you are as a person, how you think of yourself, and how others perceive you. But reinventing yourself can be truly empowering.

Jeffrey Young ile tanışmam mucidi olduğu terapi yöntemiyle, yani Şema Terapi ile oldu. Hatta biraz kişisel bilgi de vereyim, başarılarım asla bana yeterli gelmiyor ve sürekli başarısız hissediyordum. Bir tür doyumsuzluk. Çevremdeki insanlarla bunu paylaştığımda aldığım yegane tepki "saçmalama" oluyordu. Sonra Covid patlak verdi ve evden çalışmaya başladım. Bir baktım ki durum aldı başını gidiyor. Buna bir dur demek için terapiste başvurdum. İyi ki de öyle yapmışım. Cut out the dead weight and rearrange your circle if you want to reinvent yourself. You are what you surround yourself with, and finding the right people from your circle will help you in your reinvention process. Hang out with or around people who inspire you or those who have a positive impact on your life. Use connection, such as the internet and social networks to find the right crowd for you. 10. Find a mentor No matter your circumstances or what you’re doing, you can create great change from the opportunities you’re given.

In short, they came up with the idea of "life traps", which are self-defeating modes of thinking and behavior learned in childhood as response to problems: Abandonment (when you feel people always leave and somehow seek out people who leave), Failure (when you feel like you can never succeed), Mistrust/Abuse (when you feel you can't trust anyone) etc. But first, what’s the difference between being alone and being in solitude? When you’re alone, usually there’s that negative connotation of feeling sad and unwanted. Gain as much knowledge as you can to help you continue to grow and experiment with your new identities. Bridge into the futureAs stated above, you need to build a strong support group before you even start the process of reinventing yourself. Your group will keep you from taking wrong turns and encourage you when you get too weighed down by problems. Don’t be afraid to call friends or family, or even ask them out for coffee if you need to vent about the current difficulties you’re facing. 7. Remind Yourself of Your Commitment Every Day However, a new study by University of Georgia researchers found that people who reinvent themselves often become unhappy. Angry Child: feels intensely angry, enraged, infuriated, frustrated, impatient because the core emotional (or physical) needs of the vulnerable child are not being met. These schemas are perpetuated behaviourally through the coping styles of schema maintenance, schema avoidance, and schema compensation. These coping mechanisms are known in Schema therapy as Schema modes (see list below). Schema modes are the moment to moment emotional states and coping responses that we all experience. Often our coping modes are triggered by situations to which we are oversensitive. Many of these modes lead us to overreact to situations or to act in ways which end up hurting ourselves or others. Self-assessment will help you reflect on progress. You can reevaluate your long term goals along the way. Continuous reflection helps you to avoid stagnation and continue moving forward on your reinvention. Celebrate your success

I love the scene in Alice in Wonderland, where Alice asks the Cheshire Cat which path she should take. The cat replies that it depends where she wants to go. Try something new. Test the waters with a freelance job or a volunteer position. Take a chance on meeting someone who works in a field that interests you. Be curious. Our 60s are one of the most important transition periods of our lives. With our kids out of the house, our social context is changing. Retirement is “in sight,” even if we don’t plan on quitting our jobs any time soon. Turning 60 is also the time when many of us start to question our place in the world. We may even look at our lives and ask, “Is this it? Surely I was meant to do something more!” Now this doesn’t mean total reinvention will happen in 66 days. To drastically alter your circumstances/wealth/traits can take many more months or even years. 10 Tips to Reinvent YourselfIronically, the best way to reinvent yourself after 60 is to start with small steps that you can apply consistently.
