Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “I am not living the life I want’? Many are finding that they’re living to work rather than working to live. Worst still many of them also hate the work that they do.
Life should not be dominated by work, particularly work you do not enjoy.
Work is one of the most important things in our life. It defines a huge part of who we are, and consumes many of our waking hours.
Imagine how different your life would be if you.
- Had more control over your working time.
- Felt less overwhelmed and stressed.
- Were doing what you feel a calling to do.
- Knew you were doing work that meant something.
- Had time to enjoy your family, friends, and life.
- Had a career that aligned to your passions.
Too many people suffer through a life-sucking, energy-draining job. They spend from 8 to 12 hours a day, 240 days a year, working a job they don’t like. In my mind that’s way too many hours to be doing something they dislike while dreaming of an occupation that will provide them with more fulfilment, excitement, freedom, and prosperity.
Life can be better than that. It’s time for a career you love! One that energizes you, inspires you, excites you. Choosing your dream career is the start.
My career is focused on helping others find their passion, and empowering them to live a better life. I once lived to work, doing a job that gave me little satisfaction apart from the big pay check. I felt frustrated and trapped , and the longer I stayed that way, the more my energy slumped.
It’s not like that anymore. Not since I followed my passion, and went down the career path that let me do things I loved. When you feel passion in your work, you feel elated, excited all the time. Every single day, I get out of bed, excited to work. I have never looked back since beginning my journey to being an online entrepreneur. There’s nothing like loving what you do and, at the same time, making a living out of it.
When you want to live a life on your own terms you couldn’t do any better than becoming an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurship is much more than making money. It is a calling. It’s when you find your passions and want to make a contribution to the world. It’s all about what you can contribute. It’s about doing something you love. You just need to find out what this is.
Start by asking yourself . . .
- Who am I?
- Who do I want to be?
- What do I love to do?
- What are my interests?
- What skills do I possess?
- What are my strengths?
- What do I want to be remembered for?
- What impact do I want to have on people?
- What do others say I’m great at?
- What values guide me?
- What motivates me?
- What drives me?
- What ideas excite me?
Those questions will help you to find your ideal career based on what you’re good at and what you enjoy most.
Once you’ve identified where these questions are leading you, you will be ready to go more in depth and explore all the possibilities open to you. You can investigate all the industries, companies, organizations, experts, educational resources, websites, etc., that can help you find the answer.
You will find life is full of opportunities which previously have been unimaginable to you.
But your first step is to uncover the activities that get you excited and bring you joy. Once you find this you will hear yourself saying ‘I am living the perfect life’.
So get busy and create a life you feel passionate about!
