Do you feel like your job is a good match for you—for
your interests, your skills, your personal goals? Many of
us are dissatisfied with our current job roles, or are not
sure what we should be doing in our professional lives.
This article is intended to help you focus in on what
career is ideal for you.
What do you love doing? What is your hobby, or hobbies?
What do you enjoy doing in your free time, when you're off
the clock and not getting paid? If you can find a job that
fits or is related to these interests, you're in
luck—that's the career for you.
For example, if you love shopping and clothes, then why not
look at a career in the fashion industry? There are job
roles that cater to every personality type and skill set. A
bubbly individual who loves meeting new people, talking and
being social might make for a great PR person for a
designer or clothing store. A person who is very
artistically inclined could work in the design studio. A
person with great business savvy and a nose for trends
might make a great fashion analyst or retail consultant.
If you match your personal passions with your skills and
qualities, you will actually enjoy going to work every
day—imagine that!
What are your goals? Do you want to build up your bank
account so you can buy a house, or do you just want enough
money to be able to rent and travel at your leisure? What's
your personality type—do you crave stability, or do
you thrive on excitement? These types of considerations are
essential in finding the correct career for you. If you are
someone who has visions of a white picket fence and a
family in your near future, then perhaps a job with a
steady, high paycheck is critical to your happiness in
life. Your ideal job will be one that gives you security,
stability, a pension plan, insurance, and so on.
Also think about the type of environment you hope to work
in. Are you happiest behind a desk, or do you feel empty
unless you're outdoors? Pick a job that allows you to spend
time in the places that make you feel at home. For example,
a person with a strong connection to the outdoors might
consider becoming a forest ranger, a ski instructor, a
landscape architect, etc.
Your ideal job should allow you to do the things you love
and that are important. If you enjoy traveling, then a
career that enables you to visit foreign countries
frequently is going to make you happy. But if you hate
leaving home, then that same career could be torture. Think
about the career's requirements and how they would impact
you down the road.
