It’s incredibly common to feel like you’re not achieving enough, or that you don’t know what your life purpose is. The root of these problems is most often found in your work life, but it can be surprisingly simple to get back on track and start doing what you love. Many people underestimate how much your choice of job affects your long-term happiness. This course is specifically designed to help you identify your ideal career so you can stop dreading Monday morning. You’ll spend time honing in what your dream career and life purpose is, as well as the benefits and sacrifices required to make more money. We’ll go over the pros and cons of being self-employed and starting your own business, and look at the choice between taking risky jobs, versus those that are safe but don’t excite you. This course will delve deep into your life goals and how you view success, and whether you feel that success is something worth exchanging for stress. We’ll look at whether having a big salary is a priority to you and how to feel like you’re doing your best work every day. This course will help you find the ultimate career sweet spot, where you get to do something you are good at and enjoy, that gives you a sense of achievement and contribution to the world, while also paying the bills – the Japanese call this Ikigai. By the time you finish this course, you will feel well prepared and confident at goal setting and ready to start your job search and find your dream career, but more importantly, how to go about getting it. Whether you’re just starting out in the workforce, looking for a big career change, or just want to move up the ladder in a more fulfilling direction, this course will provide you with practical tools you can use right away in your career development.
