Based on my years of experience of working with professionals, I encourage you to map out your goals based on what you want to contribute and what you value.
Some people confuse money with success and miss the opportunity to define success. Money is something you will have as a result of your actions and contributions. Money typically doesn't ensure personal contentment and success.
You can work on your job for the next three years, but will you be content working from project to project just to make ends meet? That's a question only you can answer.
For me, doing work that I was meant to do, work where I can add value to my career and contribute value to my client is fulfilling. So if you can identify with doing work that is fulfilling to you, I challenge you to ask and answer the three following questions.
What type of work would you do if you were 100% sure that you would not fail?
What are three experiences that you want to have in your professional role over the next three years?
As a result of the professional role you desire, what are two things that want to have?
Be specific and clear, if your answer is a successful business, state exactly the kind of business. Who do you want to reach, and how do you intend to reach them? Or for example if it's helping people, who are the people you want to help and what the impact will be?
By taking time to address these three questions, you are on your way to defining or refining what you want based on what you value, and your passion.
Have you ever thought about creating an online business while working your full-time job or working as a consultant? You're not alone! Countless people make the decision to start an online business every year, and it doesn't look like this trend is stopping anytime soon.
As technology gets better, more and more jobs can be done just as well without leaving the house. It's no wonder most people are interested in it, as there are many advantages to working from home:
You set your own hours
You'll no longer be limited to working when someone else tells you to. Nothing is stopping you from pulling a 16 hour day on Monday and taking Tuesday off, or taking a few hours off in the middle of the day to go grocery shopping.
If you're the type of person who works best in the evening/night, you'll no longer have to drag yourself up at 7 AM just because someone else tells you to. You can work from anywhere It's usually referred to as "working from home", but a better term might actually be "working from anywhere".
So define or refining what you want based on what you value, and your passion, and consider starting an online business and working from. it may be the best decision you ever made You can work just as well in a hotel room in any state, or from your favorite café, there's no need to limit yourself to your home office. You'll save time and money. Working from home completely does away with the daily commute, meaning you'll save both time and gas money.
For some people who are used to commuting for 2 to 3 hours per day, this is huge. Use the money you save to improve your home office instead, or take an extra vacation every year! You'll be able to work uninterrupted. When you work in a regular office you'll often have people interrupting you as soon as you get into "the zone". It can be very frustrating, especially if you're in a rush to complete an assignment. This is another huge advantage of working from home; unless you have household members who like to bother you (tell them not to!), you'll be able to enjoy completely focused work with no interruptions.
