here’s the deal:
few of us are in the perfect place (or
the perfect time!) to pursue our
dreams, interests & goals
we face limits everywhere we look
Friday, August 31, 12
4. GlobalNiche.net
that’s how it feels, at least.
living life between the cracks, neither here nor there.
maybe you’re going through some kind of
transition or dislocation or stagnation.
life feels like it’s on hold.
you’re muted. you’re LESS-YOU.
Friday, August 31, 12
5. REASONS
you’re not feeling your
whole self right now
• fish out of water, surrounded • losing ground in your
by the ‘wrong’ culture of people, profession or education
thinking, behavior
• trouble keeping favorite parts of
• juggling all your different your life a daily presence
worlds like family, friends, work,
countries, cultures, language • invisible and wish the world would
notice you
• disadvantaged by where
you are, out of touch with • stuck and yearn to reinvent
important, appealing things yourself
happening elsewhere

6. good news:
it doesn’t have to be that way
and you already have most of what you need to
change everything
Friday, August 31, 12
7. ok, we may not be able to change
certain circumstances
...like where we live,
or how much time we have
but
we can
make our situation A LOT better
with a global niche
Friday, August 31, 12
8. global niche:
the place where you belong
&
operate to your full potential
...using all your favorite components & abilities
Friday, August 31, 12
9. you have multiple interests and responsibilities
a pro basketball fan?
maybe you’re also a pharmacist by training,
a salsa dancer in the past,
a traveler through Italy in your dreams,
and a favorite sibling -- forever.
those are all your worlds
and you want to live in them....
you’re not just one kind of
person
Friday, August 31, 12
10. you’re a hybrid being and that makes you unique,
resilient, complex, and okay -- good-looking.

your hybrid life
demands

Friday, August 31, 12
11. that’s how this whole GlobalNiche idea started...
we are people with lots of facets
groups we’ve loved belonging to
stuff we do for fun
life experiences we’ve had
studies, training and livelihoods we’ve had
where we are now, where we used to be, where we want to be next
Friday, August 31, 12
12. it adds up to who we are
and
what we have to offer the world
what’s unique about us
how we see life
what we love
the way we want to be
Friday, August 31, 12
13. #1 method to build your global
niche:
act like you’re a citizen of
the world
(even if you don’t have a passport!)
why?
bigger world = more opportunities
Friday, August 31, 12
14. act like you’re unlimited
by things like geography & time zone
act like you’re unbound
by what school you went to, where you work
and live and who you know today and where
you come from and who your family is and
what everyone else thinks and feels and does.
be globally unbound.
