Career Guidance

First post – this is about living a life you love

October 14, 2024

This blog is for and about you living a life you love, and specifically about choosing a career that fits you perfectly. Take a look below and see how well what you are doing now fits:

You look forward to going to work most of the time

You are extremely successful and productive because you are doing what comes naturally to you

Your work is a natural expression of your talents and personality, so you fit with your work like a duck fits in a pond

A day on the job leaves you feeling energized, not burned out

You are proud of what you do

Work often feels more like play

You are highly respected at work because you are so good at what you do

You do not have to pretend to be someone else at work

The environment you work in brings out your best efforts

You are on a winning team that is having a great time getting the job done

If you thinking of making a change, you have the real-world experience to know how many of these statement represent your present situation. If you are at an early of your work life, you may not. But remember, only about 30% of college graduates of all ages say they like or love their work. Most of the others are living a life of major compromise because they did not know how to choose their career. If you are willing to design work that fits you perfectly (and is achievable), this blog is for you.  If you participate, we will put more time into this blog.
