What is the correlation between self-love and finding your dream job?
Loving yourself is the most important relationship in life – the greatest source of inner strength, self-confidence, and the belief that everything is possible.
Your dream job search should not only reflect your work experience, but also who you are and what you love about yourself.
The Self changes over time and discovering who you are today and what you want to do should be in correlation with your Actual-Self. This process will help you better define what you want to do and give you superpowers for the dream job interviews such as beautiful facial glow (the one you have, when you fall in love), self-assertiveness,and decisiveness.
Imagine you are not inspired by a certain industry, but apply for a job there. You would never be able to appear enthusiastic and motivated during the job interviews. Knowing what you want to do, is a time- and energy-saver.
The next level beyond self-knowledge is the state of self-acceptance – the moment you reach it, you will love yourself because of all the great things about you, your life and work experience, and despite your areas of improvement. You will start applying for exciting roles, stretching you rather than comforting jobs. You will believe that if you want something, you can achieve it.
Most companies use competency-based questioning techniques, which require work or real-life examples of a candidate’s skill. These questions are extremely difficult to answer without self-knowledge, self-acceptance, and self-love.
Without them, you could not demonstrate your creative and capable Self in an interview process as you fear the interviewers might not like it. The most important skill for finding your dream job is learning, accepting, and loving who you are if you want others to love you.
