            Seven Steps to a More Fulfilling Job
            Man\ people today find themselves in unfulfilling work situations.
            In fact, one in four workers is dissatisfied with their current job.
            according to the recent "Plans for 2004" survey, Their career path
            may be financially rewarding, bui it doesn't meet their emotional,
            social or creative needs. They're stuck, unhappy, and have no idea
            what to do about it. except move to another job.
            Mary Lyn Miller, veteran career consultant and founder of the Life
            and Career Clinic, says thai when most people are unhappy about
            their work, their first thought is to get a different job. Instead.
            Miller suggests looking at the possibility of a different life.
            Through her book. & Myths of Making a Living, as well as workshops,
            seminars and personal coaching and consulting, she has helped
            thousands of dissatisfied workers reassess life and work.
            Like the way of Zen, which includes understanding of oneself as one
            really is. Miller encour­ages job seekers and those dissatisfied
            with work or life to examine their beliefs about work and recognize
            that "in many cases your beliefs are what brought you to where you
            are today." You may have been raised to think that women were best
            at nurturing and caring and. therefore, should be teachers and
            nurses. So that's what you did. Or. perhaps you were brought up to
            believe that you should do what your father did. so you have taken
            over the family business, or become a dentist "just like dad." If
            this sounds familiar, it's probably time to look at the new
            possibilities for your future.
            Miller developed a 7-step process to help potential job seekers
            assess their current situation and beliefs, identify their real
            passion, and start on a journey that allows them to pursue their
            passion through work.

            Step 1: Willingness to do something different.
            Breaking the cycle of doing what you have always done is one of the
            most difficult tasks for job seekers. Many find it difficult to
            steer away from a career path or make a change, even if it doesn't
            feel right. Miller urges job seekers to open their minds to other
            possibilities bevond what they are currently doing.

            Step 2: Commitment to being who you are, not who or what someone
            wants you to be.
            Look at the gifts and talents you have and make a commitment to
            pursue those things that you love most. If you love the social
            aspects of your job, but arc stuck inside an office or "'chained to
            your desk" most of the lime, vow to follow your instinct and
            investigate alternative careers and work that allow you more time to
            interact with others. Dawn worked as a manager for a large retail
            clothing store for several years. Though she had advanced within the
            company, she felt frustrated and longed to be involved with nature
            and the outdoors. She decided to go to school nights and weekends to
            pursue her true passion by earning her master's degree in forestry.
            She now works in the biotcch forestry division of a major paper
            company.

            Step 3: Self-definition.
            Miller suggests that once job seekers know who they are, they need
            to know how to sell themselves. "In the job market, you arc a
            product. And just like z product, you must know the features and
            benefits that you have to offer a potential client, or employer."
            Examine the skills and knowledge that you have and identify how they
            can apply to your desired occupation. Your quali­ties will exhibit
            to employers why they should hire you over other candidates.
            Step 4: Attain a level of self-honoring.

            Self-honoring or self-love may seem like an odd step for job
            hunters, but being able to accept yourself, without judgment, helps
            eliminate insecurities and will make you more self-assured. By
            accepting who you are - all your emotions, hopes and dreams, your
            personality, and your unique way of being - you' 11 project more
            confidence when networking and talking with potential employers. The
            power of self-honoring can help to break all the falsehoods you were
            programmed to believe -those that made you feel that you were not
            good enough, or strong enough, or intelligent enough to do what you
            truly desire.

            Step 5: Vision.
            Miller suggests that job seekers develop a vision that embraces the
            answer to "What do I realty want to do?" One should create a solid
            statement in a dozen or so sentences that describe in detail how
            they see their life related to work. For instance, the secretary who
            longs to be an actress describes a life that allows her to express
            her love of Shakespeare on stage. A real estate agent, attracted to
            his current job because he loves fixing up old homes, describes
            buying properties that need a little tender loving care to make them
            more saleable.

            Step 6: Appropriate risk.
            Some philosophers believe that the way to enlightenment conies
            through facing obstacles and difficulties. Once people discover
            their passion, many arc too scared to do anything about it. Instead.
            they do nothing. With this step, job seekers should assess what they
            axe willing to give up. or risk, in pursuit of their dream. Tor one
            working mom. that meant taking night classes to learn new
            computer-aided design skills, while still earning a salary and
            keeping her day job. For someone else, it may mean quitting his or
            her job. taking out a loan and going back to school full time.
            You'll move one step closer to your ideal work life if you identify
            how much risk you arc willing to take and the sacrifices you arc
            willing to make.

            Step 7: Action.
            Some teachers of philosophy describe action in this way. "If one
            wants to get to the top of a mountain, just sitting at the foot
            thinking about it will not bring one there. It is by making the
            effort of climbing up the mountain, step by step, that eventualy the
            summit is reached." All 100 often, it is the lack of action that
            ultimately holds people back from attaining iheir ideals. Creating a
            plan and taking it one step at a time can lead to new and different
            job opportunities. Job-huntim: taste gain added meaning as you sense
            their importance in your quest for a more meaningful work life. The
            plan can include researching industries and occupations, talking to
            people who are in your desired area of work, taking classes, or
            accepting volunteer work in your targeted field.

            Each of these steps will lead you on a journey to a happier and more
            rewarding work life. After all. it is the journey, not the
            destination, that is most important.
