Finding Your “Perfect” Work
I have several books by the “Self-Employment Experts” Paul & Sarah Edwards, and one of their books is “Finding Your Perfect Work.” It has been a few years since I have picked it up, but I was struck by how many pages I had tagged with sticky notes (I must not have had the sticky flags that I love).
There are several worksheets to help you on your journey… like p.58 “All I want is…”; and on p. 63 “Personal Landmark Moments” from your past; and one of my favorites… on p. 65 “Signs of Magic” where they start the worksheet out with “Here’s How it Feels When Life is Working”.
The “Your Story” worksheet on p. 79 helps you layer the worksheets in to a sample life line… really interesting ways to uncover yours perfect work.
If you are trying to uncover the “you” behind your new business, or perhaps the business you are in the process of building, I think this book is worth the investment of time to review…
Here’s another section I enjoyed from p. 103:
What specific path are you wanting?
Harvest a gift you have? (follow your talent)
Pursue a passion? (follow your heart)
Follow a mission? (follow your gut)
Capitalizing on assets? (follow your nature)
Then the authors spend a chapter on each of these.
I feel that for me, I need to revisit this book and redo the worksheets and check out the resources…
Check this book out and see if it can help you create YOUR perfect work!
