Imagi-Natives: ...for an imaginative life!

[Quote No.50401] Need Area: Work > General
"[Vocation and career: individualism] The key to a happy and fulfilling future is knowing [and being] yourself. This self-knowledge is the most important component of finding the right career... Many people take career tests with the hope that someone can definitely tell them who they are and what they should do. No test can do that. I recommend that people use the results of their career interest tests to stimulate their own ideas about possible occupations... Tests have one great mission and purpose: To give you ideas you hadn't thought of and suggestions worth following up, ... But if you ask them to do more than that, you're asking too much." - Richard Nelson Bolles

"[Vocation and career:] Always define WHAT you want to do with your life and WHAT you have to offer to the world, in terms of your favorite talents/gifts/skills - not in terms of a job-title." - Richard Nelson Bolles

[Quote No.50403] Need Area: Work > General
"[Vocation and career: look for a career where you can contribute and achieve:] I like the late Bernard Haldane's definition of an achievement. He says it is: something you yourself feel you have done well, that you also enjoyed doing and felt proud of. In other words you are looking for an accomplishment that gave you two pleasures: enjoyment while doing it, and satisfaction from the outcome. That doesn't mean you may not have sweated as you did it, or hated some parts of the process, but it does mean that basically you enjoyed most of the process. The pleasure was not simply in the outcome, but along the way as well." - Richard Nelson Bolles

[Quote No.50404] Need Area: Work > General
"[Vocation and career: find a job you find stimulating and enjoyable:] There is a vast world of work out there in this country [USA], where at least 111 million people are employed in this country alone - many of whom are bored out of their minds. All day long. Not for nothing is their motto TGIF - 'Thank God It's Friday.' They live for the weekends, when they can go do what they really want to do." - Richard Nelson Bolles
