Have you ever heard the saying that what you find yourself doing during those moments of procrastination might just be the work you’re meant to pursue in life? It’s a curious
thought, isn’t it? But surprisingly accurate. Consider this: the activities you can engage in for hours on end, the ones that seem to make time disappear—those might just hold the key to your ideal career path.
It’s a revelation that holds a lot of truth. Discovering your true passion often involves observing where your focus drifts when you’re supposed to be focusing on something else entirely. Maybe it’s crafting stories, tinkering with gadgets, or even diving into personal development. That latter path is what resonated with me, and I’ve been enjoying it for decades. Little did I know that buried within this fascination was a potential career trajectory as a Hypnotherapist and NLP Coach waiting to unfold.
Embarking on a journey of personal development, I gradually pieced together the puzzle of what truly captured my attention. It’s a field that, to my surprise, had a professional avenue perfectly aligned with my passion. It’s a testament to the idea that when you uncover what genuinely captivates you, it can open doors to career possibilities you never imagined.
Take my journey, for example. My story embodies the transformation from a woman who took many evening personal development courses as an escape from an unfulfilling day job… to a career path as “Jayne Goldman, MBA, C.Ht., Founder and Principal of Best Life Hypnotherapy in Los Angeles.” With certifications as a Certified Hypnotherapist and NLP Master Practitioner and Coach, I found a way to channel my passion for personal development into a meaningful profession.
The path wasn’t clear from the start. It took recognizing my enduring enthusiasm for personal development and understanding that there was more to it than a mere hobby. Delving into hypnotherapy and NLP Coaching, I discovered tools that not only transformed my life but also allowed me to help others unlock their potential.
It’s a reminder that our journey to discovering our career path isn’t always linear. Sometimes, it’s about peeling back the layers of our interests and understanding the potential beneath. Procrastination, as unconventional as it might sound, can be an illuminating guide if we approach it with an open mind.
So, the next time you find yourself lost in something during moments of procrastination, take a step back. Consider how that activity aligns with your passions. Who knows? You might just be uncovering a career path that allows you to do what you love while making a meaningful impact and a lucrative income stream. After all, when passion and profession merge, remarkable things can happen.
