THE BEST CAREER ADVICE YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON !!

You've made a list of several career options you wish to pursue and have done research on the career paths and the life of people in those fields. You've also taken elderly advice but you still can't find a "perfect" fit for you. This situation can be very confusing and stressful. The following strategies will help gain clarity and pinpoint the most appropriate job fit for you. 





1. The Ancient Japanese Ikigai Strategy: 
For this strategy, you will be required to ask the following 4 provoking questions about each of the options to yourself:

Are you good at it? 
You need to assess yourself and take feedback from people close to you who you feel will provide a precise and honest review. 

Do you deeply love it? 
You should be extravagantly passionate about it and be more than willing to do the work even if you don't get paid for it. 

Can you get paid for doing the work?
It should be something that will be able to fulfill your financial needs and provide stability to your life and family. 

Is it something that the world needs?
Your passion can either directly help people (eg: Teaching) or put you in a situation where it enables you to make a positive impact in the lives of others (eg: philanthropy, influencing). Helping others can turn your passion into your purpose. 



The option which fits perfectly in all these four questions will be the most suitable one for you providing you a happy, satisfying, stable, joyful, and fulfilling life. 

2. The Eulogic Framework:





In this framework, you need to list the three things you want to be written on your gravestone when you die. This framework will help you find what are the most meaningful things in your life and which way you want to make an overall impact on this planet. You can also mention the stuff you want to be written on your Wikipedia page. It will help you figure out the professional achievements and accolades you desire in life. The "Eulogic Framework" may require some time and calmness of the mind, but once used, by hunting the mix of the character and the achievements you want as a person, it is a true game-changer. 

Hope today's post will help you gain clarity about what you want to become in life. Peace๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘Š

HOW TO CONTROL AND MANAGE LIFE PROBLEMS EFFECTIVELY?

  We often face multiple type of problems in our day to day lives which often stress and upset us. So, how do we manage them?  Just imagine that all the problem in our lives fall in the  circle of concern you see on the right. The  circle of concern has a smaller circle inside it which is the circle of influence. This circle of influence contains  the problems that can be controlled or changed by us e.g.: The words we speak, our habits.  All the problems that are totally uncontrollable lie outside this influence circle. .  What we often tend to do is mainly put our focus and energy on the problems that don't lie in the circle of concern knowing that this will waste our time and energy and dwelling on them wont get us anywhere. Doing so will also shrink your circle of influence and get more problems out of your control. So if u ever notice yourself doing this stop it. What you should rather do is only focus on the problems that in the circle of influenc...
