   Ep. 3 - 5 Questions To Ask Yourself Before Making A Career Change

   Have you always wanted to shift careers, but uncertainties keep on gnawing your drive to live the life of your dreams? Do you find yourself trapped in altruism, and you now want to go after what makes your heartbeat? That big leap of changing career – that move has never been so easy, but worry no more, for today, we’ll help you determine if it’s really a career shift that your life needs! RJ once lived a life where his job was also his everything. Join us as he shares questions you can ask yourself as you step towards a calling that makes life well-lived. “Not that it’s a bad thing, but what I realized now is that your job is not everything. It’s just a part of the life that you must enjoy.” – RJ Acantilado Episode Highlights: Understand why you have to free yourself from that space of altruism and let go of the idea that you need to sacrifice yourself to earn money; Discover why it matters that your job is in alignment with the values you live by and practice; and Find out five questions you can ask yourself before making a career change Questions to ask yourself before making that big career change: “Does my current workplace still align with my values?” “Is this something that still excites me daily? Do I still find myself doing the same thing in the next five years?” “Am I still growing? Am I doing something new? Am I breaking through my own limits?” “Is my current job positively or negatively affecting other areas of my life?” “Is my current job providing enough for me?” Key Takeaways: “I now have the statements reversed. Before, I would always say, ‘Masaya naman ‘tong ginagawa ko, kaya lang, nakakapagod; kaya lang, pahirap nang pahirap. But now I have that statement reversed, like, ‘Mahirap, nakakapagod, pero masaya.” “It's when we get in touch with our identity, the gifts that God has given us, kapag nagagamit natin 'yong mga talents na 'yon, lahat, that's when we exude brilliance; that's when we feel most alive.” “I believe that as humans, we were designed to grow, to explore, to experience breakthroughs, to reach new milestones, and that makes life a lot more exciting. That makes us look forward to waking up because we have something new to do, something bigger, something more exciting; and that makes life dynamic, and that puts the life in the life.” “Not that it’s a bad thing, but what I realized now is that your job is not everything. It’s but a part of the life that you must enjoy.” “If you're not able yet to reward yourself with the fruits of your labor, I believe it's time for you to find a job and find a new career that gives you the time and the money for you to do that, so that you may be able to thrive and strive even more.” We appreciate you listening to us.
