Why Finding your dream job Is So Difficult

Do you ever wake up in the morning and ask yourself: “Am I in the right job?” “At the right company?” “On the right career path?” “Doing what I am supposed to be doing with my life?” If so, you are not alone.

So why can’t people find jobs they love?

Hard Work

While long hours may be required, successful people spend their time on the right things and in the right roles. When all these factors are aligned, most of these people can’t even tell you how hard or long they “work.” For them it is not a question of how many hours they put in during a week or work/life balance, but about doing what they love as much as possible.

Mere Passion

Most people will tell you that the secret to career happiness and success is finding what you are passionate about and doing it. However, the Founder and Chief Ignite Officer of Ignite, Tom McDermott believes that this thinking is flawed. He asserts that passion is only part of the equation.

Tom believes the real game-changer is our natural child-like curiosity – without which a person will not find true alignment, happiness, and success in life. For Tom, finding a job that you love requires doing something you are “passionately curious” about and born to do.

Money

Money hasn’t been around that long in the scheme of human existence, but it has quickly become the ultimate distraction. In fact, the first question most job seekers ask is “How much does the position pay?” The answer usually determines if things move forward.
