Finding the right path.

Your career, respectively your profession plays a crucial role in your life, because it usually determines your identity, your personality and your social position to a large extent. This is why so many people identify with their profession and sometimes lose their identity in it.

However, what you do for a living only has a limited effect on who you really are!

Your profession also determines how your life will essentially turn out, because it gives you money: the money you need to live. If you earn a lot, you will lead a different life than if you earn little. As we humans often tend to identify ourselves through money, your profession also has an influence on how you perceive yourself and your life.

For these reasons, we have partly developed into a society in which people’s success and supposed satisfaction are often judged by their profession and income. Those who have a good job with a high income enjoy prestige. If you have a bad job or no job at all and earn a correspondingly low income, you are not held in high esteem.

A person’s personality, their character, plays almost no role in our society. If you interview people on the street and ask them what their goal in life is, the majority will give financial reasons. Very few will answer that their goal is to become a good person.

Career, money, status and self-perception are therefore closely linked. It is therefore important that you have consistent and beneficial beliefs in all these areas of life.

Even if generalizations are always difficult, one generalization can certainly be made on the subject of jobs: most people are dissatisfied with their job! Now it would seem obvious to assume that this only applies to low-income professions, but this fact also applies to high-income professions.

There are many reasons for this: salary, workload, social tensions, mental atrophy or the feeling of not being able to realize oneself. In our case, however, such reasons only play a limited role, because we don’t want to focus so much on how things got to this point, but rather on where we go from here!

However, we want to include one reason in our consideration: even if you often grow into things without perhaps really realizing it, one of the main reasons why you don’t realize yourself professionally is the fact that you don’t think you can!

Our society and our education system let us grow up believing that only those who have studied or enjoyed a special education can build financially rewarding careers. If you haven’t studied anything and have no other special training, you probably won’t earn very much money. Apart from that, you won’t be able to pursue a prestigious profession at some point.

The fact that such a way of thinking is of course total nonsense is proven by countless examples of people who have managed to do just that: they have built a successful career with few resources and without any training.

If you find yourself in a situation where you are dissatisfied with your job and somehow can’t see any prospects, you should keep the following in mind:

Your past thinking has brought you into this situation! Your future thinking will determine whether you will remain in this situation or whether you will bring about a change!

“You have to be who you want to be if you want to be who you want to be!”

How are you supposed to become an actor, entrepreneur or restaurateur if you see yourself – and feel – as a worker, cashier or uneducated person?

That is not possible!

Never forget that your perception is directly connected to your thoughts! That is the crucial point!

If you are not the way you want to be, then you will not feel the way you want to feel and you will not perceive what you want to perceive.

If you feel like a cashier but want to be an actress, you create a whole series of problems:

– You create a separation from what you want.

– You experience lack and want as a result.

– Your selective perception confirms that you are a cashier.

But you want to be an actress!

Do you recognize the problem?

We always think that we can only feel like an actor when we are one. But that is a misconception.

First feel, then be!

You have to feel like an actress first if you want to be an actress!

Only then will you:

– Feel the way you want to feel.

– Program your selective perception so that you perceive what you want to perceive.

Only in this way will you perceive the decisive clues, thought-provoking impulses, situations, things, people and information in your conscious perception that will guide you or allow your wish to become a reality in your reality!

Think of the many inventions that did not previously exist in reality. Some were even considered impossible. They came into reality because the inventors perceived clues, thought impulses, situations, connections and information that were in line with their beliefs – not with reality! Step by step, these perceptions then led to a (first) thought becoming a reality.

It is no different with yourself! (Find yourself or find out who you want to be, go through your life attentively and take note of the hints, thought-provoking impulses, situations, things, people and information that will help you step by step to turn your thoughts into reality!

But first you have to feel the way you want to feel!

If you feel dissatisfied, overworked, underchallenged and unfulfilled in your job, you will notice exactly that: You will perceive clues, thought-provoking impulses, situations, things, people and information that confirm this!

The problem here is that your feeling arises in dependence on your external circumstances, and usually automatically on the basis of your beliefs!

As a result, you have no control over your feelings and your perceptions! You are a plaything of external circumstances!

Only when you regain control over your unconscious thinking can you control your feelings and perceptions again. To do this, you need to reformulate your thoughts and reprogram your beliefs!

Only then will your feelings and perceptions change! They are only the result of your previous thoughts and beliefs!

Never forget: your thinking is completely independent of external circumstances. This means you can always think however you want – no matter what is going on around you!

If your job makes you unhappy, it’s only because you’re thinking about it the wrong way! Even if your job is now your reality, you can still think the way you want. Above all, you can still think in a way that makes you feel good and happy!

This will also have consequences for your perception!

Always remember the famous song:

“If you can’t be with the one you love, love the one you’re with!”

“If you can’t be with the person you love, then love the person you are with!”

Let’s apply this to your job: “If you don’t have the job you love, then love the job you have.”

In other words: “If you don’t have the job that makes you happy, then be happy with the job you have.”

It’s not about glossing over or positive thinking, it’s about influencing your perception!

You shouldn’t just think like this, you have to feel like this too!

What will happen then?

Your selective perception will let the clues, thought-provoking impulses, situations, things, people and information through into your conscious perception that confirm your thoughts and beliefs!

This means that you will perceive clues, thought-provoking impulses, situations, things, people and information that confirm that you have the job that you love and that makes you happy!

If you enter Mini Cooper in a search engine on the Internet, you will get Mini Cooper as a result. If you think Mini Cooper, you will perceive Mini Cooper. However, you will not get Mini Cooper as a result if you enter VW Beetle, and you will not perceive Mini Cooper if you think VW Beatle. Then you will perceive VW Beatle!

Nothing else happens here!

So, what would you like to see?

That you have a job that you love and that makes you happy, or that you have a job that you don’t love and that doesn’t make you happy?

You decide!

But: when choosing your thoughts, never let yourself be distracted by what is! Never orient yourself to reality! What you perceive as reality is always just your personal (subjective) interpretation!

If you change the way you think about reality, then reality changes!

And in front of your eyes!

For this to happen, however, you have to think the corresponding (new) thoughts!

As a result, you will perceive clues, thought-provoking impulses, situations, things, people and information that match your beliefs.

This means:

– You will have new perceptions that you would not otherwise have,

– You will take new actions that you would not otherwise take,

– You will find yourself in new places where you would not otherwise be,

– You will experience new situations that you would not otherwise experience,

– You will meet new people that you would not otherwise meet,

– This will give you new thoughts, conclusions and insights that you would not otherwise have.

In sum, this will in turn cause you to take actions that will lead you to places you would not otherwise go, you will experience situations you would not otherwise experience and you will make perceptions that you would not otherwise make. This will again lead to new thoughts, conclusions and insights that you would not otherwise have.

Etc.

This process will guide you to what you want!

One key is the term “new”. You will take new actions, find yourself in new places, experience new situations and have new perceptions. Until now, you have been denied these actions, places, situations and perceptions because you have been thinking your old thoughts and beliefs.

Now, however, you are thinking new thoughts and beliefs, and this influences your selective perception – with the corresponding, logical and comprehensible consequences!

For example, you may find out that a new position has become available in another department that suits you perfectly. You may get an idea that will please your employer and lead to a promotion. You may meet someone who opens up a completely unexpected opportunity for you.

The list of possible ways is endless!

Don’t worry about how something will happen. That is not your job!

As Albert Einstein once put it: “You can’t solve a problem at the level at which it arose. You have to go one level deeper: to the cause!”

You can’t solve the problem “I’m unhappy with my job” with the same thoughts that got you there!

Your task is to go one level deeper!

Ask yourself how and why your past thoughts have brought you into this situation.

Then you will quickly realize that it is your beliefs that have brought you to this point in your life. Beliefs that you adopted unchecked in your childhood from your parents and your environment. Beliefs that have been confirmed to you by our outdated and illogical education system and our society.

Beliefs that you may have been thinking for decades without realizing it and therefore without thinking about it!

These past thoughts and beliefs have led to the result you are facing now.

What result should your future thoughts lead you to?

And, do you think it will be the same thoughts you have been thinking? If you want a different life, you have to stop thinking the way you’ve been thinking!

If you want to find yourself in a job that makes you happy and fulfills you, you have to think exactly that!

You have to think the way you would think if this reality were already your reality. The only reason why this reality is not your reality is because you don’t think that way!

Turn the tables!

Don’t wait for a situation to happen so that you can feel the way you would feel in that particular situation, but feel the way you would feel in that particular situation! Then the situation will happen!

In order for you to succeed, you should definitely program your beliefs accordingly and keep them active. Above all, you should make sure that you do not unconsciously adopt beliefs that contradict what you want!

That can happen very quickly! A stupid comment from someone who tells you that you will never achieve this or that can be enough! It worked before, when society and the education system told you that you couldn’t do this or that job with your education and level of knowledge!

Think of Henry Ford: he could neither read nor write. Nevertheless, he not only built one of the most successful automobiles of all time, but also revolutionized industrialization by inventing the assembly line! Apart from that, he became one of the richest people in the world!

Do not orient yourself to what is, and certainly not to what others claim! Focus exclusively on what you want!

Check your beliefs and make sure that they do not express separation, lack, want or absence. Formulate them in such a way that you are very happy with your job, that you are grateful for it and that the world is full of opportunities for you!

This is how you program a new belief regarding your job & career:

Hint: Use the tutorial worksheet to identify, define and program your beliefs.

It is important that you use your own words and expressions! Write the way you think!

1. Go into your I-frequency – think of someone you love or something you love.

2. Think about your job, your prospects, your income, etc. Observehow you feel, e.g. when you think about these topics. How does your I-frequency react?

Your I-frequency becomes weaker:

7

3. If you are not feeling well or your I-frequency is weakening, you have identified an unfavorable belief. This belief relates to a specific area or topic of your profession / work. Identify which area / topic it is about and analyze the thoughts of your belief. How else do you express absence, separation, lack or want or another derivative of fear in relation to this area? Identify the words you use to express worry, uncertainty, insecurity, lack of trust, etc.

Note these thoughts under 1.

This section describes how you have thought so far.

4. Now define thoughts for your new belief system that express the presence of a successful and fulfilling job. How can you think about your work that makes you feel good and hold a strong I-frequency? Formulate thoughts that match your level: Statements that you can think and feel without resistance, i.e. your I-frequency remains constant or improves. Not all the way to the top!

Note these thoughts under 5.

This area describes how you want to think now.

Continue at point 5. here.

7

5. Next, formulate how you want to feel about your work and write it down under 2.

6. Then formulate what you would like to realize in your work and write it down under 3.

7. Now combine the points 2. and 3. into a single statement (can consist of several sentences!) and write it down under 4.

8. Combine Your statement 4. with the newly defined ideas / content 5. into your new belief (also as a statement!). Write it down under 6.

9. Write down your belief in as many places as possible. Write small pieces of paper and hand them out. Write the belief in a notebook and keep it with you at all times. The point is to remind yourself of your new belief as often as possible. You can also make yourself thought aids, such as small colorful dots to stick everywhere. Be creative!

10. Think exclusively about this new belief! Think it as often as possible, e.g. when you are thinking about your job, or when you notice that your I-frequency is weakening because you are becoming insecure, e.g. because you are worried about your future or have other doubts. Whenever the topic of career / work is relevant.

11. You should take action! Start and stay disciplined until your new belief is programmed and you notice that something is changing in your professional life.

Check your I-frequency regularly and correct your belief system if necessary.

12. Complete further tests with the corresponding tutorials, as everything is connected and your skills influence each other. It is therefore very important that you work on all your skills and achieve a high level of proficiency.

Your I-frequency shows you at any time where there is still a need for action.

Listen to them!
