73: THE FIGURE OUT WHAT FITS EPISODE!

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

If you have a good (or maybe great) job but you can’t see doing the same thing forever…

If you hate your job and cant wait to get out of it…

If you’re not sure what you want to do for your career or job or business…

If you are just not sure where to begin…

If you want the most effective approach to making a career change…

If you have trouble narrowing down what you want – you have too many passions or interests…

Then this is the show for YOU.

We’re going to walk through the process of determining exactly what is holding you back from finding the work that you were made to do!  Then, we’ll talk about what to do about it!  As it turns out, there are a lot of misconceptions about careers out there and we want to help you avoid those so you can stand out from the pack!

It is critical to spend the time doing the work up front that will lead you to crystal clarity on what you truly want.  As Scott says,

You will get what you want to the extent that you are clear on what you want.

This is why most people who say, “I just want a stable job with a company I can grow with” will get just that.

In building your career profile, you’ll want to focus on your strengths first.  These will be the “corner pieces” of your puzzle.  Next you’ll fill in the “edge pieces”.  Those are your criteria for what you want in your life, what you need to have in your work and in your life – your salary considerations, your health and wellbeing considerations, etc…  Your “puzzle” picture will start to take shape!

DON’T get hung up on job titles!  Just zero in on what you want, then talk to others about it.  The opportunities will begin to emerge!

Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
