Finding your passion will help you find happiness in a career. Everyone knows this. There’s only one problem. How, exactly, does one find their passion?
In her TED Talk, social entrepreneur Noeline Kirabo offers up two questions you can ask yourself:
1. If you had all the time and money in the world, what would you spend your time doing?
2. What makes you happy or gives you a deep sense of fulfillment?
These might sound like simple questions, but not everyone can answer them off the cuff. Taking the time to sit with them, and reflect, is important to gaining clarity on your future career.
Disclaimer: Kirabo admits that “Not every passion can be turned into a career.” But you might be surprised at which ones can.
