\n
You may be working at an adequate position in your career. But, you might be missing out on the wholesome opportunity that could take you to the heights of success. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
This article teaches you how to discover more about your career preference, not by self-reflection, but through a fail-proof way<\/span><\/span>. This way teaches you how to discover your ideal career through indulging in various works . <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Self-discovery has failed for many!\u00a0<\/span><\/h1>\n
\n
Self-discovery is the conventional way of career discovery. <\/span>Yet this method has failed in helping individuals find a career they could call their dream career<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Also known as the \u2018plan and <\/span><\/span>implement<\/span><\/span>\u2019 approach, this method works by finding a person\u2019s likes and dislikes to match a relevant career<\/span><\/span>. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It believes that there\u2019s only a single true identity of a person that shows their talents, preferences and values<\/span><\/span>. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
So, it views an adult\u2019s personality as a stable one, one that\u2019s shaped only from past experiences and is not likely to change anymore<\/span><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But, a bunch of research by the Stanford institute contradicts this conventional notion of identity<\/span><\/span>. It rather views an adult\u2019s identity as evolving. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
This new theory believes that change in your identity happens from your present experiences as well as your hopes and fears of the future<\/span><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
While self-discovery can help you know yourself and map a matching career. <\/span>But, since there\u2019s no single identity of you, by sticking to a fantasy career this way, you miss out on other possible selves, thus an ideal career<\/span><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A tried-and-tested way to find a dream career<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n
You need to create a new working identity for yourself to discover your dream career. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Yes, your current work identity <\/span>is limited<\/span><\/span> to your current profession. Thus it cannot provide you the exposure a possible dream career needs. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But how do you create a new working identity?\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
A Harvard research article states that three things define your identity. The kind of work you do. The people who surround you at work. And the way you narrate \u2018why you do your work\u2019 and \u2018how you reached at this point\u2019.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
If you adjust the above three factors, it can help you create a new working identity for yourself.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Test and learn method, as it’s called, helps you test, discover, and adapt a new identity for yourself.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Do the following three things to discover your dream career.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
  1. \n
    Start a new work, the one which you feel might be best for you, on a small scale.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    Surround yourself with people that can help you progress in your work.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \n
    Look for success triggers and lessons that can help you develop a sense of how you achieved a thing.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \n
    How it works:<\/em> Starting a new work allows you to experiment with a new working identity and discover your passion for it<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    As you experiment with various works and surround yourself with positive people, you make sense of which work works best for you<\/span><\/span>. This gives you greater insight into your passion.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
