Reaching your dream job

To find out what your dream job will be like, try to get an accurate picture of what the day-to-day is like. No job is 100% fulfilling all of the time.

Talk to people doing the job you want. Talk to people in the organization. Talk to the ones that enjoy it and to the ones who quit.

Career changes are daunting

Career changes are some of the biggest shifts we will make. They often involve some retraining and will impact your personal life.

Probabilistic thinking

Once you have narrowed down your options for a new career,, consider these questions: Which one would you bet on for being the better choice one year later? How much are you willing to bet on it?

Velocity: Speed and direction

Change will never be right unless it aligns with what you want to get out of life.

Take stock of the skills you already have

Knowing what skills you already have will reveal what you can repurpose.

Career change: Elements of planning

Once you know what direction you want, planning for change is vital.

Inversion: Working backwards

Once you know where you want to be, work backwards to where you are now. Carefully consider all the steps in-between in reverse order.
