Discovering the Right Career for You in the Real World: Start with a List

So, how do you discover what you really want when you don’t even know what all the possibilities are?  That’s one of the challenges of our modern world.  It’s wonderful that we have so many choices.  However, we just don’t have that many opportunities to be exposed to all the different fields out there in our everyday lives.  In this post, I’ll go over the first step to getting clear about what you really want:  making a list of possibilities.

In my last post, I gave you five simple questions to help you get clear about what might really inspire and fulfill you as a career.  If you still find yourself confused after exploring these questions and you still don’t really feel like you have a sense of anything you would like to do, then I have a little homework for you.

Make a List of Possibilities

To begin, make a list of all the different careers that you think might be interesting to you.  Search the internet for “list of careers” and make a list of all the ones that you have even a mild interest in learning more about.  Don’t judge your choices or try to narrow them down at this point.  Just have fun considering all the possibilities for your life.  Once you have the list, put them in order of what sounds most interesting to you. 

Don’t Listen to any Negative, Limiting Thoughts

Don’t worry about the negative, limiting beliefs you or someone else might have about a potential field, trust your instinct and know that your enthusiasm and interest are guiding you to the right path for you.  And remember to use EFT to tap on any negative beliefs that might come up about your ability to succeed at any particular field.  As I have said before, the key to fulfillment in life is to release your fears and follow your heart. 

Making a list of potential careers that you think might be fun and interesting for you is the first step.  In my next post, I’ll talk about what to do next with your list.  See you then!

Blessings, Laura
