Passion, Success and Your Career
Passion, Success and Your Career âI always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter.â -Walt Disney Have you ever found yourself sitting at a table with someone who only talks about themselves excessively and their theories about life and business are juvenile, overly simplistic and shallow? I happened to be sitting next to a friend of a friend at dinner last week who fit this description. He attributed to his success (success is a relative term, people) to being âpassionate.â If only it were that simple. This theory does have merit, but itâs far from the entire story. Defining and Directing âPassionateâ One of many flaws in the argument is that passionate is too nebulous of a concept to universally have an impact in the real-world. Yes, passion has the dictionary definition of an intense emotion, a compelling enthusiasm or desire for something. But in reality, I personally donât know anyone who wakes up every day for their job with a compelling enthusiasm. After all, work is work. Some days are good and passion comes naturally. Others are tiring. Moreover, use of the word gives people who are not experienced in their career or who are down on their luck the thought that because they donât love every day, their chances are zero. You can be passionate about painting, but if you donât have the resiliency, curiosity, appreciation for what skill and opportunities you have and ability to control your inner monologue, that passion quickly turns into frustration. Therefore, being passionate and successful are mutually exclusive. Passion alone doesnât put food on the table. Where you direct passion is more important. For instance, if you are passionate about improving your skills, and about acquiring the emotional reasoning to keep your chin up during the downs, then you have a shot at loving your job, because winning is fun. Success itself builds confidence, and is a key passion component. Passion as a Focus Foundation âIt takes attention to retrieve the appropriate references from memory, to evaluate the event, and then to choose the right thing to do.â Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, âFlow.â Passion fuels resilience and provides you with the ambition to learn and strive to become more competent at what you do. Most importantly than anything else, it affords you the ability to focus. In anything, focus allows you to achieve complex tasks. When you are able to achieve complex tasks, you: Become more indispensable as an employee. Become more respected around the office. Become able to negotiate higher pay for your services. These 3 facets build upon your confidence and overall satisfaction. Not only that, the feeling of success spawns better client and co-worker relationships because you are willing to take chances, speak your mind and both lead others around you and be self-assured enough to follow good leadership. Unfortunately, full attention is not possible when unhappy at work. When unhappy, much of your brain power and ability to focus on the task at hand are diverted by feelings of worry, anger, jealousy, resentment, or an overall sense of inadequacy. All of these kill attention span. Becoming a basketball player without the focus and attention to properly form your jump shot is a much more difficult proposition. In the End Passion means different things to different people, and in success it is far from the whole story. However, for any of us, passion does begin with appreciating what we have in life, doing things for others and understanding that if today isnât perfect, there is always another one coming tomorrow.

Linked Out Link In. - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career
Linked Out Link In. - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career The job is tedious. Below you. Boring. Ridiculous. Worse than ridiculous when you consider your degree, stage of life, needs, self-image, friendsâ careers ⦠the litany is long, when it comes to why you are better than your job. What you donât know is that your miserable job is a link in the chain that pulls the world in the right direction. Or not. Destination or part of the journey Before I got on-air â" before I thought I could get on-air, I went to a broadcast program at this small jewel of a program at Chapman University in Orange County, California. Leo Green, my first instructor and mentor had been in charge of news or features for seemingly every major (and minor) program, network or station that Iâd watched or heard about. I thought I might become a news reporter. So I went to see if I could. Short answer: yes. Before I completed the program, I began doing pieces for KOCE, the public television station in Orange County, among other local stations. Short story? Reporting is very, very boring. It is tedious. It is silly. You spend hours learning about a tree ordinance and then hunt down people who cry on camera because the city cut down their trees. All that effort gets you maybe 180 seconds of a news package. Suddenly, in my ear a producerâs voice said, âSmile, when you say cocaine bust,â as I sat at an anchor desk talking about what the police did in Hemet: a scorching little dot on the map near Palm Springs, California. And, the point is? I found out that local news reporting is the least, best use of me. Thereâs more to tell, and worse, but that will do. I love business. I love being a business pundit in media. Totally different gig, which I would not have gotten if I hadnât happily congratulated Hemetâs finest for their haul: exactly as I was instructed to do. Leo taught me something more valuable than learning to read prompter without moving my eyes. Something I believed, even when it was raining and I was doing a standup in high heels on a hill that was coming down during a mudslide. Which for me, looks dumb, feels dumb and is dumb. Dumber than dangerous. âEverything matters.â I donât care if you like it or feel like youâre being actualized by it. Whether you are delivering flyers, entering data, collating, photocopying, using a scissors, braiding hair or doing brain surgery: everything matters. All the very small and miserable things you and I do to earn a living matter â" because we are responsible for some link in some chain that pulls some company in, God-willing, the right direction. And, thatâs how commerce, media, government or charitable organizations work, and how the world goes around. And, your career with it. LinkedIn? Yes, but first link in. You matter.

She speaks to business audiences around the world and is a resource for press, including print, broadcast and online journalists and bloggers covering social media and careers.

What are Your Natural Talents and How to Find Them [Updated] - Career Pivot
What are Your Natural Talents and How to Find Them [Updated] - Career Pivot Natural Talents? A quandaryI find many people have is identifying their natural talents. They can tell you all about the skills that have acquired. We are paid to exercise our skills, which may or may not be built on top of our natural talents. If you are not sure of the difference between talents and skills read my postTalents versus Skills â" Do you know the difference? I have been taking myself through a few exercises. I have found it quite interesting and thought-provoking. What did you love to do as a kid? Reflect back on your childhood and what did you do that once you got started you could not stop. It may not be something you did very often but it was intoxicating once you got started. It took me a while but the one thing I could do for hours and hours as a child was to assemble jigsaw puzzles. My mother did not buy them very often. When she did they were very addictive. Dig out a piece of paper and ruminate on this for a while. I developed a method for solving jigsaw puzzles. The borders came first and then I would find distinctive patterns in different sections of the puzzle to work on. Slowly but surely the sections would start to flow together or attach to the edges. I am a natural with patterns. I now can see that whenever I had manageable puzzles to solve in my career I was successful. By the way, I wanted to solve the entire puzzle and not just one piece! Listen to the most recent episode What did you love to do as a kid? What do love to do as an adult? You may have to go back to when you first became an adult. Look for a common theme in your career when you have been really happy. What was really enjoyable? Dig out that piece of paper and ruminate again. This might even take you longer! The common theme for myself is helping people. Whether it was running a help desk for mechanical engineers, developing and delivering technology training, presenting product plans to customers, teaching Algebra to high school students or providing career direction to baby boomers, it has always been around teaching, training or coaching. An exercise I have my clients work on is to ask 3 people you know from work and 3 people you know in your personal life and ask: âPlease give me 3-5 words or phrases that describe me.â You may also want to ask, âWhat am I good at?â You will have to listen to their responses and differentiate between talents versus skills. Most of the time they will tell you about your skills. What are your natural talents? What skills have you acquired to complement your talents? For many of us, we acquired a lot of skills that did not complement our natural talents. I know how to program in a lot of different programming languages. All of those skills, although valuable, I have not exercised in years and really do not want to use. I was paid very well early in my career for those skills but quickly burned out. Programming requires working intensely for long periods of time but I have a very short attention span. I can do that but â¦. it sucks the life out of me. Just because you CAN do something does not mean you SHOULD do something! I have acquired a lot of skills in the area of training development and delivery and I am excellent in both. However, developing training is much more aligned with my natural talents than delivering the same training. I am an excellent presenter and trainer but it does not come naturally. I am a closet introvert. My full-time job for IBM for almost 10 years was as a public speaker and trainer. I honed that skill such that I spoke to audiences of all sizes 100-200 times a year. I can now see that when I made a career pivot to be a high school math teaching in my late forties it was ordained that I would eventually burn out. My teaching skills are not tied to my natural talents. I was phenomenally good at it and it was incredibly rewarding but it sucked the life out of me. What are your skills? Take out that piece of paper again. Once you have completed the list answer the following question. Which of those skills complement your natural talents. I previously wrote a blog post titled â" Larry Bird, Winners, Talents and Skills I quoted the great basketball player, Larry Bird â" A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals What goals have you attained in this manner? What skills do you have that are not aligned with your natural talents? Which of these skills do you want to leave behind in your 2nd half of life? If you are not sure, please read What Skills Will You Use in the 2nd Half of Life? Marc Miller Like what you just read? Share it with your friends using the buttons above. Like What You Read?
