Finding Your Passion and Building a Career Around It

knowledge Jan 15, 2023

Are you disengaged from your job? If so, you are not alone. The vast majority of people are not passionate about their work. However, there are things you can do to increase your chances of finding work that you love.

First, think about the things that make you happy and fulfilled. What makes you happy? What activities make you lose track of time? Once you have a list of those things, consider how you could turn your passion into a long-term career.

For example, if spending time outdoors is something that makes you happy, you might consider a career in environmentalism or outdoor education. You might teach social work if working with children is something that brings fulfillment.

Once you have an idea of the type of career you want, it’s time to research. What does a typical day look like in this field? What kind of education and training is required? Are there job prospects in this field? Try new things and explore different careers until you find something that genuinely resonates with you.

Networking with people within the same area will give you an idea of what it’s like to work in your chosen field. You can find networking events on meetup.com or search for “networking events + your city” online. Additionally, read books, blogs, and articles about people who have built careers around their passions to get a better idea of what it might be like to do the same thing.

If you’re still unsure how to turn your passion into a career, consider working with a coach or mentor who can help guide and support you along the way. There are many successful coaches out there who would be more than happy to help you achieve your goals.

Take the time to find work you’re passionate about, and you’ll be more likely to find career success and satisfaction. Pursuing your passion can be scary, but it’s also gratifying. By figuring out what you want to do with your life, you can set yourself up for a bright future.
