Hello, this is Greg from we grow. And today I'm back to talk about your career. What is your next career goal? What is your dream job? And how do you go about finding it? I'm talking to you today about this because my company is going through a takeover.

And this causes us, my peers, and many people in my team to consider what they really want to do. It's a great time just to step back and say, okay, you know, this is an opportunity for me to reflect. But many people struggle with identifying what their dream job is. They feel that there is probably something that is missing in their current job, but they don't really know what they want to do and how they could do go about it. So today, this is going to be a little special video because It's more of an interactive process, I guess it could almost be extended into a course. But let's do it as a video, where I'm going to ask you to hit pause, every time, the picture will fade.

And then you're going to take your time to take some notes, respond to some questions, exercises, and step by step, we're gonna take you through this process of finding out what your dream job is, and what you could be doing next in your career. Are you ready? Let's go. So in order for you to identify creative options and ideas, I want to help you get your mind right and get into the right state. So I'm going to share with you three things for that. The first is remember your career.

It's a little bit like life. It's a journey. Yeah. So I think many people get stuck because they ask themselves the wrong question. You're not looking to identify what's your dream job forever. For the rest of your life.

Now, ask yourself rather What's your dream job for next for the next two, three years? What's your next step? What is the thing that you would like to do next, so narrow down the timeframe. Make it a lighter commitment, it will feel more relaxed, and you will feel like you're more empowered to make crazy decisions because hey, this is not going to be permanent. And even if it's only a step in your career, you can go and do it. The second step is about how you can get yourself in the right mindset to find the most creative ideas and options.

And in order for you to do this, I invite you to pretend, pretend that you had all the skills, knowledge and resources in the world. Pretend that you could not fail and that everything is possible. Pretend that you're fully ready and that you can do it right now. Just allow yourself to dream. Permit yourself. To imagine that you are the best version of the being you could ever be, and get with this frame of mind into the next step.

Finally, get yourself into right environments. So get some music. If you don't have any idea of an empowering and positive music. I don't know pick the soundtrack from Gladiator that's, you know, a little Hans Zimmer is really good at whatever you like, but puts something that boosts you that empowers you, that gives you this energy, this vibe, where you feel strong and you feel unlimited in terms of resources and options. So once you have the music, you continue to pretend and every time you ask yourself a question you don't know. Just catch it and say, Well, what if you knew?

Let's just imagine let's just pretend I know the answer. What is it? This is a trick, but I believe you believe me, it works. And yeah, and remember, this is your dream job for the next two, three years, it's your next step is not going to be permanent. So, have fun. Let's go.

So the first question is, what do you do that? What are the skills that you have? What are your natural talents and open yourself to, to think about talents and skills that go beyond your work? Think about the talents and the skills you had from where you were child, things that you're naturally good at. People know you. Imagine someone describing you?

What would they say if you ask them what am I good at? Okay, and just lays down the five key skills that you want to choose and say I'm good at this. Okay, the next key question is a little bit different. This now is about what you like doing. What do you enjoy doing? What gives you energy and motivation?

What are you passionate about. So write the five things that you really, really enjoy doing. Again, get beyond work, think about everything you're like, Okay? And write down what you really like doing what gets you gives you energy go. The third question is a very quick one. It's about the mindset again, but I wanted to give you an opportunity to elaborate on it.

So what would you do in your life? If you have nothing to lose? Absolutely nothing to lose. Don't. Don't think about the money, the responsibilities, the family, all these old duties are gone. What would you like to do if you have absolutely nothing to lose?

So write it down five ideas, nothing to lose, you're totally free. What do you do? Okay, now let's think about your contribution. Think about how you can add value. So write down the ideas of the activities and the types of jobs you could do that will have the best and most important impact on people or the planet. Where could you contribute most?

How could you make a difference? What type of jobs what type of activities, write it down five ideas even more if you want, let's go crazy. Contribute people and planet go. We're making progress. And you're now fine tuning some ideas. Maybe you have similar things coming back.

It's okay. We're going in loops, everything is a process. So now the next question, again, your top five ideas of what you would like to do as a job or an activity. If you didn't need to earn money. If money was out of the question, and you wouldn't care about how much you earn or how much you need for a living. What would you do?

Take money out of the question and ask yourself, what would I do? The next question is something The resonates particularly to me, it's about the legacy you want to leave. What story do you want to leave behind? When it comes to your career? What do you want people close to you tell about you? What legacy you want to leave.

Think about your life, your story looped behind and say, This is the career that I wanted. This is what I was dreaming up, and I did it. describe this, what type of jobs What have you done? What changes have you made? Okay, we have now opened up lots of doors and ideas for your subconscious mind to activate the creative mode in you and just come up with as many possible solutions and options as you could potentially come up with, which is a lot. Remember, if you think you have no idea, just pretend.

Just imagine you have ideas. Just pretend you're someone with lots of ideas and lots of creativity and let your mind flow. So 30 seconds, right? Now, write down all the jobs that come to your mind. Don't think don't analyze, just write down all the potential ideas of what type of jobs you want to do. Go 30 seconds.

Well done. Thank you for following me through this process. It may have been a little bit disturbing to be pushed like this. But believe me, your mind no knows how to keep up. And the faster you do it, the less you will rationalize and analyze what you're saying or doing or writing. And the more you will activate your subconscious mind, which has all the answers, believe me, you can trust him or her.

And now it's time to look back at what you wrote. And just select the top three ideas. Look back at all those questions. Look at what you wrote down and identify your top three key activities that you think you would love doing that you're good at that will make a contribution and contribute to your own legacy and story. Your top three Come back. All right, by now, we've been in dreamland for a while, we've activated the creative mind.

And we have allowed ourselves to dream. And well done. I hope you enjoyed this moment. In this experience, I think we don't do it enough. We don't allow ourselves sometimes to just have a bit of fun and let our mind express itself. So I hope you enjoyed it.

Now, let's activate the reality filter a little bit and press this button again, and look at your top three options. And consider now what is the most realistic option based on your current environment, your current state, what you know where you are, how much money you have, and how much you want to make, what is the most realistic next step from those three. And if it's not fitting for those three and non are achievable or realizable, then maybe you want to look back at this list. It is now time for you to bring back a sense of reality check and just select What is the most credible and achievable next step? When you get it, ask yourself, how would I go about making this happen? How could I do this job in the future?

When and what steps would I need to do to take? What changes would I need to make? So how would you go about making this a reality and write down the steps write down what you will need in terms of resources, in terms of time, the skills, of environment of support of people and connections, just leaves down everything you need. When you get this, you've got your plan. You know what you want. This is your vision.

This is your goal. And you know how you're going to get there. This is your plan. You're ready. That's it. I hope you enjoyed this.

I hope this was helpful for you, because I'm going through this stressful moment, you know, going through a takeover at work. And I see not only myself but also many other people being impacted by this personally, it does put the burden on us, you know, this level of ambiguity and the pressure of having to think about our future and our career. And I hope that through this simple process, and those tiny questions, you were able to come up with new ideas, new perspectives, who know, maybe this is how you could potentially help yourself, change your life and have a better future and make a difference to the people on the planet add value. So I hope you enjoyed it. Keep on doing it, and if you want to go back, do it again. Remember, pretend allow yourself to have fun, and trust the process and trust your subconscious mind.

Keep growing. Thank you for the time and I hope that you will find the very best next step for your career. Make it happen. Thank you
