September 27, 2008 by Admin · Leave a Comment 

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

Satisfaction and fulfillment is your goal, not being in a “make do” position for an extended period!

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

When people think of dream jobs, all too 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 very few of us kept the goal in mind for those jobs and gave up; in other words, you felt you were settling.

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

Very few people follow through with their childhood dreams, but the fact is, those childhood dreams probably wouldn’t have made you happy anyway.

Your needs and beliefs about a good job when you were a child will be far different from your needs as an adult, and 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, and what you need in terms of job security, monetary pay and challenges.

The first step in searching for your dream job is actually realizing that the one you’re in right now is not 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 simply too short to feel like that for a fourth of it!

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

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

There is no time like the present, and you’ll find that you can make your own opportunities as you seek to discover the right career path for you.

Power Questions and Answers

13 “POWER” Questions Every Employer Must Ask… and The Answers Every Future Employee Must Give…

As employers, there is an imperative to hire the TOP 20% of the “brain-power” pool that is available in the marketplace. Either by searching the unemployed rolls or finding potential employees who are seeking new challenges, salary enhancements, better perks, and others who want ownership opportunities.

You ask, “why the TOP 20%?” or the Best 10%?

Maybe only hiring folks who qualify at the “mensa” level will do.
[Look up the word “mensa” if it’s not familiar]. Employers must keep employees challenged with new goals and opportunities or they will get bored and move on.

Can we prove specific brainpower levels are the key to good hiring decisions.
In most cases it’s only a small part of the hiring process. Without skills and specific talents, no employee is going to be successful.

It’s true, some firms deliberately “over-hire” talent wise because they feel more education or particular skills will eliminate the less desirable candidates. One of those hard to measure guidelines for most of us. It probably sounds like a better idea than we have proof to validate.

All the questions are part of getting your Dream Job ebook which is available FREE when you subscribe to our newsletter. Our focus is on helping you discover your future career path working for an employer or owning your own business.

Good luck as you make your decision. Always remember that time is on your side, DO NOT rush the process or you’ll live to regret it later. No business or job is without risk. Due diligence is imperative BEFORE you step off the curb or expect a huge boulder loaded with surprises.
