Three Ways to refresh your career

We all have a LOT on our plates from raising families to bringing our A+ game to work and our overzealous personalities allow us to accomplish impossible challenges. I made a short list of three action items you can do to hit the refresh button on your life and continue to make incredible gains.

1. EventBrite

This website is often forgotten but has lots of hidden gems that aren't always on facebook.

       A. Head to Eventbrite and login/register
       B. Look for events in your respective city
       C. Sign up for at least one event every month to stay up-to-date and network.

I personally went to an event at the City of Buckhead Club covering how you can grow your customer base through digital marketing. I met some incredibly smart professionals and would highly recommend it to colleagues.

2. Volunteering
Make time to volunteer some place that connects with you.  It might do more good for your sanity than you think. Check out these sites and see if you can offer career advice, contacts, or time.

  A. Hands On Atlanta
  B. Atlanta Volunteer match
  C. Habitat For Humanity

3. Meet-ups
Meet ups are another great way to make new friends and network. You can find groups who just love to try new restaurants or share your love for travel. If you want to change careers then you can probably bet there is a meet-up for it and discover new resources to jumpstart your change. Some meet-ups I found interesting:
