This is the first edition of my renewed LinkedIn Newsletter “Uplift Your Career by Timo”, bringing you the latest tips and tactics to land your dream job or boost your business.
We all know that we only have one life to live, but what do we want to do with it? Figuring out how to uplift your life and what you want from life can be a discouraging task, but it’s worth figuring it out.
?
1. Identify your passions
One of the most important things to consider when trying to figure out what you want from life is your passions and personal interests. What makes you happy? What do you love doing? These are all critical questions to ask yourself.
?
To identify your passions, think about the things that give you joy or excitement, and write them down. Once you have a list of your passions, it’s time to explore them more deeply and try out new activities. Start by making a list of things that interest you, narrowing it down from there.
?
2. Don’t be afraid of failure
Another important step in figuring out what you want from life is to not be afraid of failure. It’s important to remember that failure is a part of life, and it’s okay to make mistakes. What matters is how you learn from your failures and use them to help you grow.
?
3. Find a mentor or coach
Another tip that can help you figure out what you want from life is to find a mentor or coach. If you need help figuring out what you want from life, it's helpful to enlist the support of a mentor or coach who can offer guidance and advice. Whether you find a professional career counselor, join an online coaching group, or work with a friend who is good at providing honest feedback, having someone on your side can make all the difference.
?
How to find a suitable mentor or coach: First, make a list of important qualities to you in a mentor or coach. It will help you identify potential candidates who might be a good fit. Next, consider your budget and other resources available to you. Some people may afford professional career counselors or coaching groups, while others may only have access to a friend or family member. Finally, do some research to determine what options are available in your area. You can search online for local career counselors, coaching groups, or mentor programs or ask around to find out if anyone you know has recommendations.
Once you have identified a few potential candidates, reach out to them, e.g., on LinkedIn and set up meetings or interviews to learn more about their experience and what they can offer you. Regardless of who you choose to work with, the most important thing is that you feel comfortable communicating with them and trust their advice.
?
4. Set clear goals
Setting clear goals is an essential part of achieving success in life. Once you have a better idea of what you want from life, it’s important to set clear goals to help you achieve those objectives. Start by making a list of your short-term and long-term goals, then break them into smaller, achievable steps.
Having specific, measurable goals can help keep you focused and motivated as you work towards achieving them. However, it’s essential to set goals that challenge you but are also realistic. You can achieve awesome things if you believe you can, but you build the self-confidence to set loftier goals when you start small.
?
Making sure your goals are specific is crucial. A specific goal is, “I want to land a dream job in industry x in 6 months.” It is a much better goal than “I want a new job.” When you’re specific about what you want, it’s easier to plan to achieve it.
Another tip for goal setting is to write your goals down. Studies have shown that people who keep a written list of their goals are more likely to achieve them than those who don’t. Writing your goals can help you stay focused and motivated as you work towards achieving them.
?
Acting every day towards your goals is also important. It’s not enough to just have goals – you must take the steps every day to progress towards achieving them.
?
5. Build a support network
Building a support network is also crucial in achieving your goals. Achieving your goals can be difficult, especially if you’re trying to go it alone. That’s why it’s important to build a support network of family, friends, and other people who can offer advice, encouragement, and help. These people can help you stay on track when you’re feeling discouraged and celebrate with you when you reach your milestones.
?
The first step in building a support network is identifying what you need from other people. Do you need help with your career, job searching, or financial resources? Do you need someone to talk to when you’re feeling stressed or down? Knowing what you need will help you identify the right people to connect with.
?
Don’t be afraid to ask for help. When you’re struggling or need support, it's difficult to reach out and ask for help. However, everyone needs a little help from time to time–and those who will ask for it will often find that they have a strong network of people who are eager to offer it.
?
Being open and honest with your support network is also important. To get the most out of your support network, you need to be open and honest about what you’re going through.
?
It is important to think win-win in building your support network. Be always helpful, reciprocal, and ready to help your network. This will build trust and strengthen your relationships.
?
Figuring out how to uplift your life and what you want from life is no simple task, but once you do, setting goals and working towards them can be an enriching experience. So don’t be afraid to dream big, start small, and build a support network to help you.
