When you’re thinking about the next steps in your career, it can be hard to understand what path to take. Here’s a simple framework that will make things easier.
Frame your thoughts around three key questions:
- What am I good at?
- What do I enjoy?
- What will I get paid for?
Try to provide as many answers as you can to each question separately. Then bring together the elements that are common to each question.
You want to identify paths which allow you to do things you love doing, that you’re good at, and that you’ll get paid for.
