“Oh my dream job is to be a radio presenter, it’s all about
having fun and I really wish I had such job”.
The above statement is an example of comments being made by career
people, job-seekers and the teeming unemployed youths visualizing or imagining
a dream job or career.
With sky-high optimism, they imagine and wish for their
dream job without actually digging deep and being realistic. Now let’s face it;
a radio-presenter works round the clock tirelessly, even public holidays aren’t
automatic off-days in other establishments. In addition, he/she has to maintain
a certain standard, not letting any personal or family issue affect the job and
he/she must always sound happy and focused while on-air irrespective of his/her
mood, emotion, e.t.c; how more difficult could this be.
Your dream must find relevance to the need of the society
and your aspiration must meet people’s need because that’s the only way you can
happily express yourself with your job/career. You must move from idealism and
be realistic.
Find something doing from which you derive some sort of
personal and financial satisfaction to say the least, no matter how small. Unsurprisingly,
not a few people who towed this path have actually had lots of gain in the long
run ranging from expansion of their businesses beyond their wildest imagination
to financial establishment and large rewards. Remember big things start small.
Don’t be like that lady who jut drops home and says ‘I quit
my job’. If peradventure you are tired of your present job, talk to someone who
really counts on you or probably your H/R manager at the office. You never can
tell you might just strike a gold-coated pot of advice instead of making a hasty
decision.
Most importantly, remember you either love what you do or you
do what you love!
Best of luck in your career.
