and free training head to JOINTNI.COM As a career strategist I've had

the honor of being able to help numerous professionals land their dream job

offers and if this is something that you're interested in working with me one

on one I can give you details about that at the end of this video in the line of

work that I do I get a lot of professionals both inexperienced and

experienced telling me that they're not sure what they're passionate about and

they're not even sure what career they should be getting into now I have a very

unique opinion on this topic at least I think it's unique and I'm gonna share

with you my unique strategy on how to figure out what it is that you're meant

to do so if you're someone who's been feeling lost for a while now and you're

really trying to soul search and figure all this out not to worry I'm here to

help you today so let's get to it so here's my personal belief that I think

you should adopt as well if you really want to find the career that you're

going to be excited about and that you're meant to do and my belief is that

your career doesn't have to involve your passions but it does have to involve

your talents your gifts and basically the things that you're good at doing

passion is a funny thing because some people can go through their whole lives

not having one thing that they're truly utterly passionate about whereas there

are other people who can go through their whole lives having all kinds of

passions and getting confused by that because they don't know how they relate

to one another for example I guess you could say that I have a passion for

eating good food I like to try different things and I like eating food that

tastes good but that doesn't mean that I'm necessarily all of a sudden going to

create a career out of the idea of having to eat good food that's something

that I'll do outside of my job I don't need to create a career around my

passion of eating good food make sense and the reason for that is because

passions don't necessarily equate to a truly meaningful successful

career it's your talents that equate to a

successful meaningful career and that's because passions can change over time

passions can sometimes you may confuse something as being your passion but it

may just be something that you've created as an idea in your head that is

something that you happen to want to do or enjoy doing and that's fine

but it's your innate talents that are going to help you to carry forward that

passion or that career to the next level because if the passion is causing you to

have to really strain and stress and you're frustrated and you feel like

you're climbing an uphill battle versus using your natural inherent gifts things

that you're really good at doing and leveraging those in your career you're

gonna find that you're going to be able to do your work more easily people are

going to appreciate the quality of your work and you're gonna be able to do the

work with little effort and energy and that's going to help you to stay calm

relaxed and centered as you pursue that career because you're leveraging your

own natural strengths and talents so I want you to focus instead of your

passions to focus on your gifts you have unique gifts that are different from

someone else's unique gifts and they were given to you for a reason when you

can recognize and then make use of your own natural god-given talents you're

allowing yourself the opportunity to express yourself more fully and on top

of that because this is you leveraging the gifts that you already have inside

you you're gonna feel much more comfortable within your own skin you're

gonna feel authentic and honest as you pursue this career having passions are

great but you really have to know where is this passion coming from sometimes we

develop unrealistic expectations of ourselves because we want ourselves to

be seen in a certain way by other people and therefore we look at this one type

of activity as being a passion of ours that we want to pursue because we want

other people to look at us a certain way that if that's how you're thinking

that's not really a passion that's just trying to impress other

so for example I'm naturally a strong communicator I would say that that is my

natural god-given talent that I've always had throughout my life and

because I've been able to recognize that that is a talent of mine I've been able

to leverage it and use it in the career that I'm in now with my strength in

communication combined with my passion in helping others to shift themselves

their lives to the next level in their careers I've been able to create a

career for myself that leverages my own talents and that is able to make a

difference in other people's lives and that's why I became a career strategist

and coach because I know that I have this talent and gift to be able to give

advice and strategies to other people in a way where it's going to shift them to

the next level in their lives and careers if communication and giving

advice and strategies wasn't part of my strengths it would be really difficult

for me to do the work that I'm doing because if I was more of a handy person

and I was good at building things but yet I went into the career of being a

career strategist and coach and guiding other people on their life paths I feel

like I wouldn't be able to do it very well so that's why it's so important for

you to recognize what are your natural gifts what are your natural talents

because that's what's going to carry you forward that's what's going to allow you

to carry your career forward to the next level as you go on with your life so if

you get what I'm meaning and you catch my drift and you are now ready to figure

out what you're meant to do then here are some action steps that you can start

taking now the first step is to list out three to five natural gifts or talents

that you possess step two is to then match them to real-life jobs that would

value these talents and gifts that you happen to possess step three is to

develop a step-by-step action plan on how you plan to achieve that job for

example if you know that one of the first things you're going to need to

getting this new job is a better resume or CV then you definitely want to check

out my course top notch resume which will help you in that process of writing
