Job dream

Have you changed? Your job started out being what you wanted, but today it is different. Maybe you thought of it as a jumping place to a better job in the future, but you have been here 5 plus years.


it is a fact that your dream job is waiting on you, so don't continue in a miserable job, boring or basically unsatisfying, even questionable for basic survival. Your time is NOW to get out!


Satisfaction & fulfillment is your aim, not being in a "make do" position for an extended period!


When people think of dream jobs, all often, they think of the jobs that they thought about when they were children.


As a child, you probably thought about being a doctor or a lawyer, a nurse, even an astronaut when you finished college. Truth is few of us kept the objective in mind for those jobs & gave up; in other words, you felt you were settling.


The problem is, lots of of those people carried the disappointment they felt from learning that they couldn't do the jobs that they wanted as babies into their adult lives.


few people follow through with their childhood dreams, but the fact is, those childhood dreams probably would not have made you happy anyway.


Your needs & beliefs about a nice job when you were a child will be far different from your needs as an adult, & you'll find that if you consider your needs as an adult, you'll have a much better chance of finding your real dream job.


Think about what makes you happy, & what you need in terms of job security, monetary pay & challenges.


The first step in searching for your dream job is actually realizing that the one you are in right now isn't going to make you happy.


Have you been waiting on a promotion or raise that never comes, or do you feel that your efforts are wasted on a routine basis?


Perhaps you feel that they don't appreciate you, or you silently think that you are so much better than this. All of these feelings are valid; the important thing to realize is that they are feelings that should be acted upon.


When you take a look at the feelings of discontent that you have amassed about your job, realize that you spend a quarter of your life at work. Your life is basically short to feel like that for a fourth of it!


More people find their dream jobs than you might think; For a fact, it is imperative to make your time count as you search.


Help is obtainable for you to discover the career job of your dreams. Your mindset is key when you begin to look

Do your self-realizations quickly fade

As we grow, we do so in fits and starts, lurching forward then back, sometimes looking more like clowns than seekers.


Winston Churchill wrote: "Man will occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of the time he will pick himself up and continue on as though nothing has happened."


We humans, in searching for success and happiness, have several great loves. One is the love of discovering new things. New places... new people... new ideas... they fascinate us.


We also love finding new ways to solve problems. If we've been suffering the indignities and inconveniences of a long-standing problem, we have an unquenchable urge to find what's causing the discomfort and fix it.


Unfortunately, an equally strong drive within our psyche is the compulsion to keep things from changing.


We love variety and change, but we also love predictability. When things start shifting in our world, we get uncomfortable; uncertain; unsure what to do next.


So with our left foot we strike out to seek change, while at the same time our right foot drags along behind us, trying with all its might to remain planted in one spot.


Often, as Churchill points out, we unquestioningly follow that urge to maintain status quo. Why? Well, it's the same reason we continue to do anything automatically -- habit.


Then how do we break the grip of habit? How do we escape the gravity well of inertia?


It's the same way we change any habit.


First step: become acutely aware of what we're doing. No habit can operate properly when we draw back the curtains of inattention.


Have you had a realization about yourself or the way you live your life? Maybe you don't want to let it drift away and become lost to you, the same way countless realizations have done before.


Then make a big production of it. Fasten your attention on it. Roll it around in your mind, play with it and explore the implications.


Don't let old habits rob you of the treasure you've found.


And that's exactly how you can stop yourself from stumbling over a truth and then continuing on as though it never happened.
