How to Find Your Passion

We have all heard that if you do what you love, then it will not feel like work, and the money will follow. But when you feel unfulfilled at work, your career is a dead weight that you drag around even in your free time.

What if you have no idea what your passion is?

So many of us get boxed into a career where we can perform adequately, but it just doesn’t tap into our core strengths and desires.

The secret is to focus on your unique talents, skills, and experience that produce the most value.

Join this in-depth interview with Alexandra Levit where she will explore ways to consider your career in a new light: How to create the career that gives you an opportunity to excel.

When you persevere and look for opportunities, you’ll ultimately succeed. By capitalizing on your unique passions and gifts, you’re one step ahead of those who do not.

What You Will Learn:

• How to carve out a career path
• How to excel and obtain skills that could be valuable, but do not appear to be at first
• How to deal with rejection
• How to take risks
• How to overcome obstacles that seem to pop up at the worst of times
• How to focus your energy
