My view on what the future of work means to me leaves me in a weird state of absolutely not knowing what I want to do in the future

Keywords: {0}

This not knowing of what I want to do in the future has led me to make more goals within the jobs and companies which I hold compared to full career aspirations for example, moving from team member to team leader in my retail position. Currently I work at a call centre for a major drinks provider where I am involved in the complaints side customers when they have issues with our poducts, machines and deliveries however im already looking upward to moving into a sales representative position.

I want people to know that luck didn’t get me here

Keywords: travel

I made a conscious choice for my current lifestyle in 2013. Although, most of my life I have had a goal of living life abroad even for a short time. I started to put this goal in motion in 2012 by researching ways to live/work abroad. Teaching English seemed to be the best option for me, and in January 2013 I started classes with the University of Miami of Florida to get my Teaching English as a Foreign Language Certification or TEFL. The course was more intense than I expected and along with working full time, it consumed much of my after-work energy. That TEFL certification was the first step in finding a teaching job abroad. Of all the cities, in all the world I have for most of my life dreamed of living in Paris. So, that is where I started.

I’m still discovering who I am and what I want from life, but the journey has been rewarding and inspiring

Keywords: lifestyle

It honestly makes all the difference to genuinely enjoy your job. I felt very underutilized at my previous job, and always felt so drained after the work day. Now I feel like I’m reaching my full potential and really getting the opportunity to show what I’m good at––it’s super exhilarating. I have the energy to want to do side projects (hello, new blog post) and explore new hobbies.

I want to find opportunities to work on something which includes everything I realized was important for me

Keywords: {0}

A lot of the narratives that influence us online or in more conventional media are based on these stories of people who always knew what they wanted to do and proved to everyone that they were exceptional at it. Writers who always wanted to be writers, musicians that sold everything to pursue their dream since they couldn’t do anything else or people that created IT companies that turned into millions when they were teenagers. I mean, the pressure is huge! Unconsciously, the following question starts growing inside our brains: “why don’t I know what I want to be?”

I am committed to my own professional development because I want to be the best that I can be in my job, but also as a person

Keywords: professional development

I will look for opportunities to do something I’ve never done before to challenge myself outside of my comfort zone. It is best to learn outside of my comfort zone, because I do things that I don’t usually do and therefore I will learn the best in such situation.

The job I ended up with just happens to be the one I have wanted to land in for the last 9 years and due to a retirement was already in the works for me to train in, but it was very uncertain if anyone else would bump me for it

These were all personal areas for myself that I wanted to grow and I am so thankful that I have! When I think of looking at my ‘reverse gap,’ it is hard not to feel happy about what improvements have happened. I find I have no reason to get caught up feeling not good enough comparing to others when I just compare to my past self. Then think back 2 years, then 5 and 10. Some of these things happened that I hadn’t expected. A year ago, I didn’t know I was going to get the job I wanted. A year ago, if I thought about an exercise program, I wouldn’t have considered committing to more than 6 weeks of working out.

I’m actively dealing with what I want to do with the rest of my life as regards a career path which is worth my time

I’m finding that I’m in a relatively privileged position to have gone through ethical training as regards Library and Information Science — and I can use these skills in ways other than being, “a Librarian.” In addition to being able to see things from an Economic or Business perspective, I also have some clue about the impact of the very same policies on society. For instance, I find that there is very likely a desperate need right now not only for literacy in reading and writing, but also — maybe more intensely — a need for media literacy; that is, an understanding by the polity as to how organizations can manipulate them through the juxtaposition of different media: words, sound, still image, and video or moving image, not to mention the endorsement of their “friends” (i.e. the business leverage of their emotional relationships). How does someone get training in this? Media Studies? Studies of the propaganda that led up the Holocaust?
