Now, when we are promoted, like it or not, we will indeed start from scratch again. We are still not yet an expert in our new role. This is where the crisis of confidence usually occurs because we will now move from the "expert" phase to the "learning" phase again. How do we motivate us during that period? You were good in your previous role, but when you are promoted you move to the next level. Some of your competence become irrelevant. And there are some new competences that you don't master yet. This is the "learning " phase that you have to go through.If we face a more severe test, it means that we are considered to have advanced grades, and are able to face a more severe test.We used to be smart in elementary school, passed exams, then entered junior high school; the lessons were harder. Then do we complain, cry and ask to be sent back to elementary school. Then after studying in junior high school and we start to be smart, we graduate from junior high school, and then we enter high school. High school lessons are even harder. We also don't cry and don't ask to go back to middle school. We live life, we learn and work harder, while enjoying it.Likewise with our careers, if we are promoted means we will occupy a higher position which can be challenging. . Higher the position, greater the challenge. But indeed at first we have a lot to learn more. According to Michael Porter, a well-known strategy expert, we move from the "competent level" to the "incompetent level" at first.That's where the difficulty is, there's the demotivation, and that's where the challenge is. To that end, one should accept the reality, understand that you are not alone, learn from the past and improve, and lead and motivate yourself. The competition is getting tougher, and competitors are required to develop more attractive products, cheaper prices, and more aggressive marketing
