One of the secrets to feeling happy is to be in a job that fulfills and satisfies you. You spend more than forty hours each week on your job. If you’re doing something you love, then time goes by faster. Finding your true purpose in life is key to finding the perfect job.

Find Your Purpose in Life

When most people think about finding their perfect job, they think about which job will offer them security especially in the form of a large bank balance, house, and car. Those things are certainly important. Who wouldn’t want these things? But we need to move past acquiring things and move towards figuring out what brings us internal peace and centers us.

The answer will lead you to your perfect job. Each of us have a special purpose in life and our job can be a great way to fulfill that purpose.

Here are Some Questions to Ask Yourself:

• What do you do naturally well?
• What do you dream about doing often?
• What do you love to do that makes you forget the time?
• What causes do you feel strongly about?

Look for a Job that Combines the Answers

Make a list of jobs that combine the answers to the questions above. Look at the practical aspects as well. Will it provide you with financial security? Will you be receiving benefits? But more importantly, make sure you feel happy doing the job day in and day out. You’ll be much happier in life.
