Book Cover & Preview Text
You have unique gifts and strengths. There are things you want to do and things you are naturally good at. Somewhere, someone wants to pay you to do those things. Money is important and necessary, but so is doing something with your life that resonates with you, fulfills you, and makes you feel proud to talk about what you do. Investing a bit of time and energy in learning about yourself and the job search process can help you start on a path to a career that you really, really like. Maybe even love.
You know how people tell you that you should “do what you love and the money will come”? Well, it’s absolutely true and I’ll tell you why. When you love what you do, you devote more time to it than people who aren’t as passionate about it and you eventually become an expert at it. You eat, sleep, and breathe it. You want to talk about it all the time. You buy books about it, go to conferences about it, and post Facebook comments about it. People can tell that you know your stuff. People can see that you LOVE what you are doing, because they can see how passionate you are about it and what an expert you are. In a field of competitors, you will stand out.
So let's move on to the business of learning more about yourself and discovering what you are passionate about.
