When you were a child did you have big dreams about what you were going to be when you grew up? Perhaps you imagined you would be an astronaut? An actor? An explorer?

​Through the eyes and imagination of a child the world of work can look intriguing and exciting. How does the reality measure up?

Suddenly you’re an adult and you look around at your life and your career, and you wonder how you ended up in a job that doesn’t suit or fit you.  The reality of working life often bears little resemblance to all those dreams. Maybe very few get to be astronauts or actors but isn’t it surprising that so many people find themselves in jobs that they can barely tolerate. Jobs that fall so far short of those long held dreams and ambitions.  

What about you?  

Do you spring out of bed in the morning to go to work or, do you plod on from year to year looking forward to the weekend, the next holiday, Christmas…………? All the time dreaming of that brilliant job that’s going to land in your lap any day now.  Are you putting your life on hold?   Truth is, it’s not enough to dream, everyone can dream but very few people can turn those dreams into concrete reality. If you want to get that job you need to put your plan in place, you need to work at it.
 
To start with, learn all you need to know about you, your strengths and weaknesses and have a long, hard think about the job you want to be doing six months from now. Be calm and positive, objective and not emotional and begin to plan your steps.
 
Make this the year you move into the job of your dreams.

Quit your job…   Follow your dreams…   Pursue your passions…

How many times do you hear this advice?
Are you feeling frustrated that it’s March and you are no further forward with your plans?

​Why do you think that is?

Could it be that you are frightening yourself with all the what ifs?

• What if you leave your job and you discover it was a mistake?
• What if you don’t find something you like better?
• What if you starve?

It’s amazing how many of us get in our own way by nearly…  nearly making that next step and pulling back at the last minute.
 
If we wait for certainty and guarantees we will never make that move because we can always find something to worry about. But, what if there were some simple steps you can take to support you as you take that leap?
 
Ready to move on?
 
Well here’s the practical stuff….. I know, I know it sounds dull but it’s worth it for that exciting new job. I promise. So what should you do?

• Have an emergency fund  - this should be enough to fund 3-6 months of your expenses and stop you from worrying about the mortgage or the rent.
• Consider the new job you are seeking as a step towards your dream job.
• Get into the habit of looking at your dream objectively and exploring the potential of turning it into a sustainable source of income…… Who says you have to work for someone else?
