The myth of a dream job

The myth of a dream job

Many people think they've found their dream job, often based on nothing more than an ad. They may seek guidance on how to overcome not being hired or be excited that they've been hired.

But, jobs don't always look the same from the outside as from the inside. The dream job can quickly turn sour by a terrible boss, toxic culture, or pressing workload.

Reframe the "dream job"

When people buy into the myth of a dream job, it often sets them up for disappointment. Some job searchers may be so convinced that they've found the ultimate job that they fail to notice the danger signs. People may also stay in bad situations longer than they should because they find it difficult to reconcile their ideal job with walking away.

You can only know if it is a great job after you've been in it for a while. Until then, it's better to look for "interesting possibilities."

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.
