This year has been one that has put a lot into perspective. Sadly many of us have either been furloughed, had to work from home, or have lost our job altogether because of the financial impact of Covid.
If you have been at home for many months now and have just been feeling like you are lost and in need of direction - now is the time to find your direction and make a new start in 2021.
Today we want to talk about how you can find your calling in 2021 and make a positive change to your life after a year that has destroyed us.
Think about your passions
When deciding to change your life for the better it is important to sit down and write down the things you love to do. If you have been in the same job for a long stint of your life and you are hoping for a change, now is the time to think about what you enjoy doing. Write down all of the things you love to do in life and start to form job ideas from this. If you love animals and you love science - studying to be a biologist could be a good idea. Consider what your passions could be as a job and then you can start working towards this.
Take an online course
It is a great idea to use an online service such as LMS Software to take an online course in your chosen subject. It is likely that when you choose a vocation to aim for you’ll need some qualifications in order to apply for a job. Have a look online and find one course or a few small ones to take this winter to get your skills and knowledge up. They will bring some value to your life and allow you to develop personally and professionally.
Try something new
It is always a good idea in life to try new things, and if you are looking to change your life in 2021 the best thing you can do is take a leap and do something new. Take the time this year to find a hobby that you have never tried before and give it a go. It could be pottery, painting, gardening, or something totally random. New experiences help to broaden the mind and you might just find your calling.
Work for yourself
We know how hard it has been this last year to be stuck at home either working or unable to find a job. However in 2021 why not take control of your career and start working for yourself? You can join an online network such as Upwork and find freelance jobs to do - or you can even try Fiverr and complete tasks for people all over the world. There are countless ways to make money for yourself in the new year and it will give you that feeling of independence and financial freedom you likely need.
Use these tips to find your calling in the new year and have a happier life.
