Think that by just working hard and climbing the corporate ladder you’ll find happiness?
❌Think again
You won’t find happiness if you keep climbing someone else’s mountain
You’ll get to the top and wonder why you worked so hard to get here
When this was never the destination you wanted to get to
🌤️ The first step to building your dream career is to
💨 Really understand who you are and what drives you
And if this sounds too daunting and you don’t know where to start
Here’s a simple exercise to get you started
📜 Take a piece of paper and split it into two columns
1) In the first column write down what YOU value.
What are you trying to optimize your career for at the moment? Is it…
- Impact?
- Prestige?
- Intellectual stimulation?
- Making an impact?
- Money?
- Influence?
2) In the second column, write down what you currently have from your career. Is it…
- Money?
- Benefits?
- Work/life balance?
- Prestige?
Etc.
3. The discrepancy between the two lists is why you are unhappy with your job and what your mountain looks like
