Years ago, I read Marsha Sinetar's book of that title. I also worked through a Barbara Sher book. For a while, I had a job I truly loved (newspaper reporter) but after some corporate changes, it went south, and so did my position. Since then I have been searching for something that will "work" for me.
A friend of mine posted on Facebook today on my wall: basic to Buddhism is that based on past and present actions we create or own happiness and misery. Nobody has or will have the answers you are seeking. You have to trust in yourself. So, listen to your heart and follow what you truly want to be. You left or were unhappy with your past jobs for a reason and it is best not to repeat what was not satisfying in the past. Ask yourself why you were unhappy and make a list. Make a list of what makes you happy. List your skills. List what you want to learn or what you what to do or be and go for it. Then, success will follow.
I have an interview this week for a job in a field I worked in before, and HATED for 13 years. But I'm running out of options.
What do you think of what my friend said? Of Sinetar's book?
Sorry if this is redundant--I'm sure it must have been discussed here before.
