Yes, I believe in that, because I never wanted to be an engineer, I wanted to
write stories and be a producer and a media person, but I know writing stories
wont yield me anything, so I am an engineer, but when I earn enough I will do
what I always loved and I will write a book.

When you were a kid, you dreamed of having that one perfect career. A
firefighter, veterinarian, astronaut or maybe even a circus clown. But then,
something happened. You grew up. Suddenly you had responsibilities to meet and
bills to pay. You graduated school and were expected to take a good, decent
job. So you settled on what you could get, and your dream job remained just a
dream.
It's not too late to land your dream career. The time you spend thinking about
it, could be time spent making it happen. If you're still waiting to land your
dream career, you need to know where to find it, and how to make it happen.
Truly successful people don't just love what they do; they do what they love.
Success for them is not determined by a paycheque, but in the pride and
confidence they have in their work. Others around them are envious, and rather
than emulating their formula for success, they believe that the successful
people must know a guarded secret, or were just lucky. The jealous ones don't
realize that the successful people worked hard for their good fortune,
struggling to land a dream career.
Some people only see the results of true success, and they're starving for the
same. What they don't realize is how easy it can be to attain a dream career.
Dream careers are not just for the fortunate few. A dream career is truly
attainable by anyone who wants it and is willing to strive hard to get it.
There is no magic or mystery in the process, just a few basic, proven steps:
1. Believe in yourself. Self-confidence is a crucial and often overlooked
element to true success. If you believe that your dream career is in reach, you
will attain it. You also need to believe that you deserve that dream job. If
you don't believe in your own success, you can't expect anyone else to. People
who make their career dreams come true are those who believe in their goals.
It's easy to become a true believer. Sit down with a piece of paper, and write
your ideal life and career in detail. Create a picture that you can read or
look at every day. Use this positive reinforcement to inspire you. Belief can
be found within, but sometimes you have to dig a little to find it.
2. Get the facts. Once you are confident in your own potential for success, you
need to back up your beliefs with facts. Find out specifically what steps will
be needed to bring your picture to life. In knowing this, you'll be more
comfortable when it's time to take action. Will you require specialized
training? If your dream career will mean a drop in pay, is that important to
you or do you value happiness over monetary gain. Ask yourself every possible
question, and give yourself honest answers. When you have all of the facts, you
will be ready to take action.
3. Commit to your success. Some people are genuinely frightened of success. To
be a true success not only requires commitment and honesty, but it also holds
the potential to fail. Successful people are not afraid to say, "I will". You
need to be able to give yourself completely to your success, and then you need
to develop focus and direction that transforms your outlook and gives you
purpose. Human beings are not innately inclined to make commitments. We
sometimes feel that keeping ourselves "tied down" will somehow keep us from
being open to other opportunities. Don't obsess about the chances of something
better coming along. Commitment gives you something entirely more powerful: a
reason to get out of bed every morning and look for ways to find your dream
career.
4. Make a plan. Once you are fully committed to finding your dream career, map
out the path you'll need to take. Gather facts and put them into play. Break
down your total plan into smaller, obtainable goals. Mark these goals on your
calendar, create a 'to-do' list and start making it happen. It's important to
manage your priorities and only focus on the items that will actually bring you
closer to your success. Now is not the time to waste time. Delegate and
eliminate whatever tasks you can.
Despite what you've heard about those fortunate few, a dream career doesn't
just fall from the sky. Success comes to those who believe in themselves and
work hard to make their dreams reality. Don't worry about taking small steps;
that's how you get to reap the biggest rewards.
