Align your talents with your passions to be “in your Element” – a personal zone of meaning and fulfillment.
Recommendation
Confucius said, “Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life.” Ken Robinson and Lou Aronica refer to that happy state as “being in your Element.” In this sequel to their bestseller, The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything, they offer a nuts-and-bolts guide to finding work that combines your talents and your passions. The heart of the book is a battery of exercises – basically, personality tests – aimed at identifying your strengths and passions. The authors suggest using several boxes of markers to create all the color-coded lists, Venn diagrams and “mind maps.” Doing that work will furnish you with useful résumés of your aptitudes and passions. And, those in turn will offer you a nudge in the right direction. getAbstract recommends this manual to recent graduates, fledgling entrepreneurs and those who are dissatisfied with their current career or life direction.
