Today, we're diving into the critical question: Do you have a career or a calling? And what’s the difference between the two? This conversation is essential for high-achieving career women, especially those considering leaving their corporate job or making a career change of any sort. We’re unpacking what it means to work for a paycheck versus living your true purpose, and how to know when it’s time to make a pivot.
Key Points Covered:
- Defining Career vs. Calling: A career is typically driven by extrinsic rewards—think higher pay, titles, and promotions. If you’re primarily working for the paycheck and wouldn't do your job without compensation, you’re likely in “career mode.” In contrast, a calling is fueled by intrinsic motivation.
- Signs You’re in a Career: Do you find yourself striving for the next promotion or more training but feeling unfulfilled? You may be driven by external rewards like salary and status. While this isn't always a bad thing, it becomes problematic when it leads to burnout, dissatisfaction, or a sense of meaninglessness once you reach your career goals.
- Living Your Calling: If you’re living your calling, there’s a deep alignment between who you are and what you do. Your work feels like an extension of yourself, and you’re passionate about it—often working through challenges with ease.
- Don’t Know Your Calling Yet?: It’s okay if you haven’t found your calling yet. You have the power to choose. Explore different options, whether it’s a non-profit, writing, volunteering, or something else that resonates with you.
