Determine Your Dream Job

As you search for your dream job, you must determine what kind of work will make you happy and meet your needs. This can be broken down into three steps:

• Determine the things you like to do
• Find ways to make money doing these things
• Assess the qualities, skills and tools you have to do these jobs

Here’s a helpful exercise to help you determine your dream job: list 10 things that you love to do. Now, for each of those, list three ways you could make money doing those things. You now have 30 ways to make money doing what you love to do. That’s not a bad starting point! Use this as a launching pad to finding your dream job, and don't get bogged down yet in the practicality of what you just wrote down. This is brainstorming time!
