Once Upon a Career: The Lost Compass🌍
🌍

Once upon a time, a young traveler set out to find a path toward a meaningful future. They carried a satchel of dreams, a pocketful of potential, and a shiny compass that had always pointed confidently ahead.

But as they stepped into the world of work, the compass started to spin wildly—north became south, certainty turned into confusion, and every... direction felt equally wrong.

The traveler wandered from role to role, asking: What am I good at?, “Is this the right career?”, “Where do I belong?”

One day, they met a guide who didn’t offer answers, but better questions:
👉🏾 What are your strengths?
👉🏾 What brings you alive?
👉🏾 What values must be present in your work?

With each question, the traveler mapped skills they hadn’t seen before. They discovered work that matched their rhythm, connected with mentors, and found a path that felt like coming home.

🧭 The compass? It didn’t stop spinning—but the traveler now knew how to read it.

Your compass might feel broken, but maybe you just haven’t learned its language. You need help to find clarity, build confidence, and shape a career that feels true to you.

Judith's Initiative Saves the Day
It was a busy Monday morning at Concepts Café, where Judith worked part-time as a cashier. The café had just opened, and customers were already lining up for their morning coffee. The manager, Ms. Nakadama, was nowhere to be seen, and the head barista, Sumaya, looked increasingly frustrated—the espresso machine had suddenly stopped working.


Judith noticed... the growing tension in the café. Customers were beginning to complain, and the junior baristas were panicking. While some employees waited for instructions, Judith sprang into action. She quickly approached Sumaya. "I've seen the repair manual in the back office," she said confidently. "Let me grab it, and we can try troubleshooting before calling maintenance."

Sumaya, surprised but relieved, nodded. Judith found the manual, scanned the troubleshooting section, and identified the problem—a loose water filter. She instructed Sumaya to check and tighten it. Within minutes, the machine roared back to life.

The café resumed service, and customers were pleased. Just as things settled, Ms. Nakadama arrived, surprised to see everything running smoothly. "What happened?" she asked.

Sumaya smiled and pointed at Judith. "She took charge, found the solution, and saved the morning rush."

Judith didn’t wait for someone else to take action—she stepped forward, assessed the situation, and found a solution before the problem escalated.

This was a real case of initiative at Concepts Cafe where we provide workspace and add on F&B and Secretarial .services for students, corporate workers, and Business travleller. Share a case of initiative at your work place in the comments below.
