How to develop a five year career development plan- mistakes to avoid
How to avoid career and job mistakes in life choices? Develope a five year career development goal plan. Learn how to avoid making the wrong choices and develop skills and qualifications for anxiety free and happy job and family life. Anxiety is caused when we make the wrong choices in life. Wrong choices= wrong job, wrong partner or wrong living environment. Lets look at some of the mistakes I have made in my own life and how to avoid them.
Recently I have been fully engrossed in my spiritual mediation process and I have been treating life as just an illusion. Most of my free time is dedicated to austerities. This is good because it means I want enlightenment and oneness with God.
However this does not mean I have to neglect my life and choose one or other. One of the goals is to make my whole life a part of my spirituality. There is no reason that I can not live my life happy and to the full. So far I have been ignoring my life and not taking it as serious as I should. I envy people who have the freedom to live in India and dedicate their time and life to spirituality. But now I have got to wake up from that illusion.
Wake up call
In real physical life your job= your love. Your work is strongly related to your love life. If your love is not flowing in your work then it is impossible to truly fall in love. I believe a man should not put his weakness into a womans heart. A woman can not be truly happy in a relationship with a man who does office work/ administration/ management or boring government jobs. A man has to do a real job that creates real useful products or services that meet true and basic needs- to become a man of Love.
A man should be a strong foundation for supporting a family. When a man has a strong job and foundation with skills and qualifications to find work anywhere at anytime- then a woman can easily fall in Love. Subconsciously a woman likes to feel secure that this person can father her babies and take care of her-to provide food, love and shelter to make happy.
I feel I do not have permission to fall in Love, until I develop a strong foundation in life. Jesus has thrown some energy at me. His message is, “you can not put your weakness into a womans heart”. It is my duty to change my work. I am looking to change my career /job.
But where do I start? I am currently looking at my past experience and qualifications. My education, qualifications and skills are in psychology, publishing, design; and radio and video production.
My Goals
- My goal is to become a symbol of HIs Love.
- Ultimately to become one with God.
- My career goal is do something I love in total freedom.
- Become a spiritual healer, councilor or teacher.
- To be strong and free in life.
- Have a happy life and family.
- Live in excellent vastu.
- Bring spirituality to the world through media, such as publishing and radio.
A person does not have permission to take spirituality to Radio or TV until at least Nirvikalpa Samadhi is achieved- a breathless state of God union.
What should I have done? What mistakes can you avoid?
I feel that I should have avoided mistakes such as going for short cuts in life, easy money schemes, looking for easy work or avoiding real life work. I should have avoided laziness and created or offered real value in my life in terms of my job, skills and qualifications.
I feel I have wasted 7 years of my professional life. Instead of going to college or university I could have saved the money together and worked and traveled around the world before settling down to do an apprenticeship or scholarships to gain real experience and qualifications in a chosen field. When I left school I should have gone straight into a real life job, like construction worker, engineer or mechanic for instance. True happiness in life is a result of being strong and independent doing a job that is useful. Your job is your Love. When a man is happy and strong he is then qualified to enter a proper relationship and have a family.
If I had been more wise and avoided mistakes… if I had planed for a happy spiritual working life in my five year development plan… if I had worked to be qualified and gained useful skills and qualifications for an anxiety free life, then I would certainly be married with children by now.
My five year career development plan
My five year plan is to have a family and to be strong in life- in terms of the work that I do. In the next few months I will be researching job areas to find real work to do that will enable me to be all that I can be and provide for a family. I might take night classes to become a plumber for instance.
I shall be growing my website to reach people who are suffering, and really work for the people. But the bottom line is, when I go to work it has to be a real job, like counseling, healing, farmer or construction worker etc. If necessary it will have to be a lower salary and I will have to reduce any spending costs. This is a price I am considering for happiness. Hopefully I will get a good monetary return for the quality and usefulness of my work.
I hope that you can learn form my mistakes when it comes to developing your 5 year career development plan and aim for a real life happy job and career for the spiritual happiness of your family. Maybe you can avoid wasting years of your life by going to university. Or maybe make a headstart in life when you finish school or college and get into some useful work.
