If You Can't Make It To The Moon, How About Florida?
Did you ever dream of being an astronaut when you were young? I think at one point or another we all did, some of us still do (keep the dream alive!). The older we got we convinced ourself that it would never happen, why? We could have been astronauts we just didn't know exactly how to accomplish that goal, it works the same way with your dream job.
You may know exactly what that dream job is but in your mind you might as well try to become an astronaut, it seems that out far of reach. You're not alone and it's not unusual to think this way, most people do, but if you've read this blog for a while then I hope you're convinced that anything is possible!
So you can reach that seemingly unreachable job, you just have to know how to get there, and the way there might be easier than you think. Here's the magical secret that you can't tell anyone else about (just kidding), break your path to your dream job into manageable steps., WOW! (I know I'm a genius, NOT) Instead of thinking that you're going to start the next Apple right on day 1, start by coming up with a cool company name. Then create an office for your new company, next get the equipment that you need, get the picture? Sit down and map out a plan, then take one step at a time and don't stop until you have a company better than Apple (believe in your self). It's just better to take a slower more thought out approach, you'll be a lot more successful!
Like it says in the title, you may not make it to the moon right now, but what if you made it to Florida where they launch the shuttles, is that a step? If you've been a little discouraged then don't, you need to follow your path to your true passion, that's the only way you'll discover happiness in your work life!
