Or maybe you're feeling overwhelmed and burned out, which could cause a temporary but overwhelming loss of passion for your career. If you're feeling stuck, stressed, discouraged, or in need of a boost of motivation, here are 10 ways to renew your career passion. Set Specifi c Goals.

The answer to this question could lead your career in a new, inspiring direction. Seek Out Education. Furthering your education with advanced courses and niche conferences helps expand your knowledge. Bonus: Attending conferences helps you connect with like-minded people who enjoy the same topics and techniques. Having conversations with them might help you decide what you're truly excited about in the industry. Listen to Podcasts. Podcasts provide listeners with a wealth of knowledge and insight. Do not be afraid to listen to podcasts outside your direct industry as well. Sometimes, the ideas and topics discussed are applicable to your career. For example, if you're an esthetician, try listening to podcasts that are related to hair or marketing. You can fi nd inspiration from their topics, stories, and challenges. Of course, we hope you're listening to ASCP Esty Talk with hosts Maggie Staszcuk and ASCP Skin Deep columnist Ella Cressman each week (ascpskincare.com/podcasts). Read Books.
