How to Find Your Ideal Career

in 1-on-1,Failfast

Ideal Career

There’s tasks you Love. Often these become hobbies (especially if you’re not that great at them).

Then there’s tasks you’re good at. If you don’t love them, these can be chores.

Finally there’s activities you get paid to do. Your job. How many people are paid to do something they’re neither good at, nor enjoy, merely treading water day by day.

How to Get Out of the Rat Race:

To find your ideal career, list all of the things you love to do, the things you’re good at, and the things you get paid for. Those tasks common across the three lists are where you should focus.

What about you? Are you fulfilling your destiny?

Are you in your ideal career?

Have things changed since you’ve grown older?

Or is this just wishful thinking?

This is excellent, Roger. I love this illustration, and your supporting notes are top shelf. It would be great for you and I to pick up a skype conversation about this and post it on your site. I know Business of Passion readers would get great value from it.

Let’s discuss soon.

Great job, my friend.

Robin :)
