"Career"

I was journaling about my "Career" Bc I want to articulate exactly what my dream job is. 

"Career" is such an interesting way to put it. "Career" makes it an entirely different thing then just a job. 

A "Career" becomes a journey. Something you work towards. Occasionally, sacrificing life things to make it happen. 

"Career" becomes a life purpose. 

The word "Career" doesn't work for me. It's something I'm chasing. It's an excuse for NOT living life. It's also a constant pursuit, not an achievement. "Career" is an action word. "Career" is in motion. It's not your occupation which is a title for what you do. Your "Career" IS your pursuit. Never really arrive. I get disengaged when I hear the word Career. Which is why I couldn't journal about it!

When I hear the word "Career"...

I don't think Passion. Life force. Love. 

I hear gray robots, 1980's suits with over-sized shoulder pads. 

9-5 cage life. Overworked. 

Other people keeping me from my dreams. 

Maybe, "Career" is the wrong word to get the journal juices flowing ;) 

Today, Does the word "Career" work for you?!? The " " around the word gives a clue of how I feel about it! ;) 

 Journal with me...

"A day in the life of your dream job...occupation...profession, vocation...employment..."
