Does this inspire you to wake up each morning with enthusiasm and a sense of purpose? I`m guessing no not really…
Time For Change
While it`s true we all have to make money to survive, that`s just a fact of life, each and everyone of us still deserves to feel a degree of fulfillment after completing a hard day’s work. Sure, we receive a paycheck at the end of the week or month, but does that really make up for all the unhappy moments spent in the workplace? Again surely, the answer to that question is a resounding no.
So in this article we will take a look at how you can look into changing this situation and start thinking about waking up in the morning with a very different perspective on life and how you spend your day.
Finding Your True Purpose
There are countless books, blogs and articles out there which are dedicated towards helping people find their passion. My website endeavours to help you as much as possible. In fact, the self-help community is worth billions of pounds and thousands of people just like you every year, are researching and taking action on how to improve their lives. This statistic alone proves that people all over the globe are searching for a life of purpose.
Individuals who are unhappy in their jobs are especially susceptible to soaking in as much information as they can on how to improve their life. You can be in no doubt you are not the only one who feels like you do, even though at times it feels this way.
In order to really live a life of fulfillment and walk in your truth, you must follow your passions. Although this might sound like a crazy idea, it is actually quite attainable. All you need is a positive attitude, an element of determination and a willing spirit. Those, along with consistent hard work will help you truly live a life of passion. A lifestyle you never thought would be possible, so let’s consider how…
Identify Your Passion
Do you know what your passion is? Have you ever even considered it? I can say from personal experience that if you want to start living a more fulfilled life, a life based on enjoyment and more freedom, you must identify what drives you.
Ask yourself, is there an activity or hobby that brings you happiness and excitement? Do you find yourself daydreaming at work perhaps about a particular field of interest? What motivates you to get up in the morning? If nothing does now, what would?
The underlying answers to these questions will help you determine what your passion truly is. When you sit down and start to think, it might initially not seem that easy. I get it, I`ve been there. However, once you start to unravel this little challenge you’ll be able to make the necessary steps towards achieving it.
It won`t happen in five minutes I can assure you, but please take the time to really think and write down what kind of topics fill you with passion and then we can move onto the next step.
Learn Your Passion
Maybe you love to cook and your passion is to become a chef for example. Before you blindly pick up the pots and pans, spend some time to learn your craft. Study from the greats and replicate their actions. Read and soak up as much information as you can on your particular interest.
I don`t know if you know it, but we are living in the information age and there is an enormous amount of resources out there, both online and offline to discover all there is to know about your chosen interest.
These resources will help you improve and hone your skills, they will train you to the be the best. As you become more confident and passionate about your new found skills, you are more likely to find employment or even better, start a business revolving around your passion.
Remember to never stop dreaming, this will help motivate you and with practice, consistency and hard work, there is no reason why you can`t to turn your passion into a reality. The only barrier to this is your mindset.
Taking The Necessary Steps
So you’ve identified your passion, here`s just one of my passions by the way, you`ve chosen something you feel will make your days much more enjoyable and fulfilled. You have also gathered enough information about the topic, now it’s time to put your work to the test.
Now is the time to take the necessary steps towards changing your current situation and working towards that dream job.
Take up an internship perhaps, or shadowing job. Maybe change your resume to reflect your new venture. Then, begin applying for the jobs that will take you one step closer to realising your passion.
As you start to apply this necessary work, it’s imperative that you get out of your comfort zone and really try to find your place. This won`t be easy at first and you will probably feel somewhat uncomfortable, but I guarantee this will help to lay the important foundations of your future career.
Get A Mentor
It`s always recommended to find a suitable mentor for whatever direction you choose to go and nearly every successful person in life has took the time to invest in such a valuable asset.
I myself decided to learn all I could on how to become a digital lifestyle entrepreneur with these guys here and I can`t stress enough how much they have helped me on my journey and have proved an invaluable resource to my ongoing success.
