For many people, the word “calling” is a very powerful word. You are thinking of high demands that have to be fulfilled by the person called. But is the vocation really only granted to spiritual figures like Einstein or those called Buddha?
Everyone has a vocation
Is the intuitive mind not a gift, a seventh sense, which can be observed in kindergartens and sports grounds? It can only remain with faith. As is well known, we can not prove anything in this field scientifically.
But every person has a given calling that you do not have to earn. By the way, it does not have to be found or created. She has always been and will stay. We can only recognize, accept, and henceforth be happy with her.
When the soul dances
When we come into contact with things, people, and events that make our souls dance, we can be certain that our very own vocation is not far.
Therefore, the WLS Sense Compass will be about generating honest emotions and gaining access to your joy. Only then can the rational mind, the tool so meaningful for us, do the tasks ahead.
The birth of the professions
He is also spirit, because to him belong our spiritual faculties. This results in all the practical advances that have made the professional functions and previous qualifications possible.
With the help of spiritual abilities, man has developed skills and knowledge to perform life-critical tasks. Only the conscious division of tasks led to the birth of professions.
Profession and vocation belong together
So the profession is the servant of the vocation. A profession, an academic degree or even a doctorate is acquired if the skills are sufficient and the environment offers the opportunities.
What the rational mind is able to afford determines the quality of professional qualifications. The faith in the calling does not want to change this either.
Work holistically
Civilized societies, however, have reversed the value of the intuitive and the rational mind for too long. The professional has forgotten what he is working for and who he really is. The occupation as part of the economy became decisive for every form of society.
Whether you grew up in a democratically shaped Western industrialist or a rather socialist economy, whether you were educated by strictly religious or rather liberal-minded people: the rational mind often won the upper hand, and the consequences can be found in the tremendous professional and personal crises.
Does your job meet your needs?
But if we strive for a happy and ethically responsible professional life, we must make the question of vocation a cardinal question. And there are three questions:
1 Is the activity of fulfilling your needs?
2 Do you develop liveliness through your tasks?
3 Does your doing work for you and others meaningful?
Anyone who can constantly answer all three questions positively will find and feel happy through and with his professional duties. A professional who can always answer yes to these questions will feel satisfaction.
Appeal makes happy
Work Life Sense assumes three components, which were addressed in the three initial questions. A vocation is important because every person can only be happy if he recognizes, implements and lives the intuitive mind and therefore his vocation. In the Work-Life-Sense approach, hereafter WLS, these three components are represented:
W = requirement filling
L = liveliness
S = meaning
Where are they standing?
Before you start a reorientation, i.e. make a fundamental career decision, a location assessment will be helpful. "Before I voluntarily leave my job, I would like to know what price I have to pay for it," said a senior consultant who received a severance payment from her employer.
The personal inventory questioned whether the workshop on the professional reorientation and the design of a magnetic change concept already make sense.
What are you afraid of?
However, at the beginning, keep a watchful eye on the part of you that is resisting the change. Life is a single process of change. In the history of humanity, peoples have made steady progress.
As soon as their own homeland no longer promised enough food for the further life, the people had to decide. Previously, it was necessary to know that there would be a shortage in the long term.
Globalization - a gigantic change management
This is still the case today: Europe is fenced on its borders and protects itself from immigrants from other continents. Well-trained workers from southern EU member states are moving with their families to northern industrial regions.
The loyalty to the homeland and the connection with the comfort zone are given a different place in the case of food shortages. Globalization has triggered nothing but a modern migration of peoples. However, it emphasizes one-sidedly the component Work in the phase of the reorientation.
Work relationships and happiness live: 3 tips for the balancing act
// By Katharina Antonia Heder
Many people have problems, relationships and (dream) jobs to get under one roof. Because the balancing act between self-realization and private life is not easy. And does it have to be?
Who are we and where are we going?
For some months I have been dealing with the question of who she is, this generation of me. Melancholic say I'm in the midst of quarterlife crisis and looking for meaning - so close to the 30. Birthday certainly not abnormal.
That would be too brief for me. In fact, other questions concern me: who are we, where we go and why we seem to have reinvented life. Three questions, countless answers and here comes my attempt at an intermediate.
A life for work?
I am currently catching a cold. Just means the fourth day in a row. I think I have a fever, cut my life and cough as I work as if I were a chain-smoking. I am doing all the important things of my profession. I understand myself not only as a service provider.
I live it. Many people around
