- Imagine Working From 7 In The Morning To 6 At Night And Loving Every Minute Of It
By: Dobbs Franks | - There is no way I can know what your passion is or how well you are coping with it. So, my choice is to share with you my personal experiences and hope that they will be of some use.
Personally I think that passion is what life is all about. If you don't have a passion for what you are doing you will never either do it very well or be proud of what you did manage to do.
Stop and think for a minute. Is there anything that you can conjure up that would enthrall you ...

- Career Change Action Plans
By: Roy Carter | - Having a mentor in the same field when you are considering a career change who can offer advice, relate job experiences and teach through their own experience will be invaluable. If you feel your skills in certain areas may be lacking they should be able to recommend research or training to update your knowledge.

- Selective Attention Gets You To Your Goal
By: Anita Web Weaver | - "[Information] consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence, a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention and a need to allocate that attention efficiently . . . "
Herbert Simon, Nobel Memorial Prize-Winner, Economics
Although we are living in the Information Age, it is the very glut of information that can prevent us from both using our time wisely and making decisions - any decisions.
How does this apply to seeking, and finding, one's dream car ...

- Dive Into Your Feelings; Don't Resist Them
By: Anita Web Weaver | - "Our reaction to having [meaningful] work or not having [meaningful] work is the most challenging part, and our resistance to feeling what we feel about it causes the greatest pain."
- Sark ([ ] added)
Feelings. Those pesky, reactive, troublesome things. When we seek work we love or new work that is appropriate, our feelings can be our greatest allies or our greatest enemies.
Why?
Because when we are in that in-between space of knowing we need ...

- Go Now Or You Might Not Go At All
By: Anita Web Weaver | - "Wherever you are is the entry point." ~Kabir
There are many examples from literature, the arts, philosophy and even the esoteric that tell us the same thing as today's quotation: begin from where you are.
When we know we want to change, it's so easy to think, "Well, first I have to
. . . get the kids through school
. . . get a certification
. . . get my college degree
. . . save up enough money, etc.

- Dream Job Or Dream Income? Why Not Both!
By: Anita Web Weaver | - Do you have your dream job right now? How about your dream income?
Do you think that you can only have one or the other? Or maybe neither?
If you believe you can only make peanuts at your dream job, or think a dream income requires you to work in a career you can't stand, think again.
It's really a matter of focus.
Let me explain. When we're just starting out and even into our 40's and early 50's, we tend to focus on money. We want ...

- Taking Action Is The Motor That Makes The Law Of Attraction Work
By: Anita Web Weaver | - "You can't concentrate on the harvest at the expense of the sowing, watering, weeding and caring required along the way."
- Jack Hawley, "The Power of Dharmic Management"
Ever since the movie, "The Secret" has come out, there has been an explosion of articles and books on 'The Law of Attraction," and all its variants.

- Finding A New Career Direction: 6 Ways That Work
By: Anita Web Weaver | - "Sometimes, in the winds of change, we find our true direction."
- Anonymous
In this ezine, we usually discuss how we can initiate changes ourselves to move in the direction of our dream career and our dream income. Sometimes, though, as this week's quotation suggests, change comes to us.
This change can come about in many ways.
For instance (and this is true for many in today's economy) we lose our job. Or we reach an intersection in our caree ...

By: Anita Web Weaver | - "Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt."
William Shakespeare
As with so many other observations, Shakespeare hit the nail on the head.
In my work as a Career Coach, I more often hear people doubt themselves and stop their forward movement because of their doubts, than any other phenomenon.
Here are 10 common doubts I frequently hear:

By: Anita Web Weaver | - "The creative spirit is forever making all things new.' - Ernest Holmes
Have you ever responded, "Same old, same old," when someone has asked you how things are? If you have, you're like a lot of us - at least at times.
What if, though, the next time someone asked you that question, you were able to respond like this:
"Things are wonderful! I'm now in a job that I love, I work with creative, dynamic people and I just got assigned the most exciting pro ...

- The End Is In The Beginning
By: Anita Web Weaver | - "If you have the courage to begin, you have the courage to succeed." - Dr. David Viscott
There's a concept not many of us know about: it's the idea that questions and answers are married; so are problems and solutions, desire and fulfillment and, as quoted above, the courage to begin and the courage to succeed.
This is an important concept for us to recognize because it offers hope when we lack the confidence that we can have what we want. It's like a magnet with bo ...

By: Anita Web Weaver | - "Most of us have jobs that are too small for our spirits." - Studs Terkel
If you really stop to think about this quotation, it's shocking: "Most of us have jobs that are too small for our spirits."
It means, I think, that many of us are operating at one half, one-third or even one-quarter power or less. It means we could be doing, accomplishing and contributing so much more than we are.

I have a friend who creates art quilts. Art quilts are just that: expressive art that uses a quilt instead of a canvas as its medium.
She has begun to achieve some notoriety for her art and when you see her quilts hung next to quilts that have been created from a pre-formed pattern, you notice how alive and engaging her wo ...

- Pay Attention To The Heart Factor In Seeking Your Dream Job
By: Anita Web Weaver | - As someone who has worked in the career field for nearly twenty years, I've seen a lot of broken hearts. And I've seen some mended. It sounds like something from a country music video, doesn't it?
But the reality is many people have hearts that are breaking by degrees because they are stuck in jobs that don't feed their souls. They don't have a sense of anticipation or freedom or excitement. They put on the work attire and grimly go to work.
It feels hard. It feels ...

- Dreaming Big Is Easier Than Dreaming Small
By: Anita Web Weaver | - "It takes just as much time to have a big dream as it does to have a small dream." - General Wesley Clark
Why is dreaming big easier than dreaming small? It's because the energy and passion generated by a big dream will create the momentum you need to move forward, overcome obstacles and remain
persistent.
A big dream acts like a giant magnet orienting our lives, our ideas and our activities around a single focus: creating our dream. When we dream big around ...

I've just watched the video now sweeping the Internet, of Susan Boyle singing "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Miserables on 'Britain's Got Talent' show.
Her soul-stirring rendition of this powerful song brought the audience to its feet in cheers and tears.

By: Anita Web Weaver | - "This is the true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one." - George Bernard Shaw
Notice that the quotation above contains the phrase, "being used for a purpose." The implication is that somehow our life purpose can take us over, consume us and demand everything from us.
Notice also that Shaw says that "this is the true joy in life."
Many artists and people of great accomplishment have expressed similar ideas: Gan ...

Think of your average two-year-old and you'll get a feel for how powerful the drive is in all of us to do what we want to do. We may refine our approach over time and adapt to social norms, but we always strive to fulfill our wants.

By: Anita Web Weaver | - "I've had a lot of worries in my life; most of them never happened." - Samuel Clemens (aka Mark Twain)
As that beloved American writer, Mark Twain, points out in this quotation, our lives are often filled with worry.
We worry about how our kids will turn out. We worry about whether we'll keep our job. We worry about whether we'll get a job.
We worry about whether our savings plan will recover. We worry about what that pain in our right side means.

- Don't Just Get A Job; Get A Dream Career
By: Anita Web Weaver | - There is a lot of hidden damage being created by today's economy. Like free radicals that damage our organs and cells, the fear racing through our world psyche is causing people to pull back, hunker down, and put their dreams away.
That's as true for the person who has lost their job as it is for the person who has decided to stay put, and not go for their dream career.
Our psyches are invaded by the fear parasite. We tell ourselves that now is not the time to go fo ...

Many people play too small in their careers.
What do I mean by that?
I mean that, in terms of a career, they think of themselves as 'just doing their job.'

By: Anita Web Weaver | - Like many other creatures of the natural world, molting frequently takes place for us humans as well. The challenge is, for us, the process is usually invisible. And often unrecognized as well.
Something in us feels dissatisfied. There may be an experience of longing or even loneliness, as if we no longer recognize the landscape of our lives.
We don't feel connected to career meaning and career purpose any longer. We may even feel a sort of inner 'itch' to be somewh ...

- Your Career Path: Stuck In The Mud? Or In Your Element?
By: Anita Web Weaver | - We all remember the children's story of the Ugly Duckling. The poor thing was so awkward and big, so unlike his duckling brothers and sisters. But one day he had become a large, graceful, beautiful swan, admired by all who saw him.
In his book on work called, "Crossing the Unknown Sea," poet David Whyte had a friend tell him once, "the swan doesn't cure his awkwardness by beating himself on the back or by trying to move faster. He does it by moving toward the elemental water where ...

By: Anita Web Weaver | - Some time ago, I developed a practice of deciding on a word or phrase that would be my overarching theme for the next year. Rather than create numerous resolutions that I might or might not remember, I learned that this one word or phrase could be called to mind frequently and quickly help me remember my theme for the year.

Crystal ball or not, one thing is for sure the definition of career is taking on a whole new meaning. Although there are many differences between our generations there is one common thread that brings us together.
