Dream Job: Get your Motivation with Answers

Introduction to the Topic

You might have thought several times to get the job you want and getting settled. And I know you want to own every expensive and lavish material that money can buy.
Now, It felt like a chain marketing fraudster's scheme (you know, if you know). This blog will help you to identify and find your dream job.

You must ask yourself these three questions to proceed.

  1. What category of work should I do?
  2. What is my niche?
  3. How can I get a job in my niche? (Requirements)

Find answers to these questions, and start working towards them. Just kidding, I will answer them.

1. What category of work should I do?

This itself has four questions.

This diagram is from the book "IKIGAI: Japanese Secret to Happiness"

To answer it in the best way write down all those categories which can satisfy any one of the questions. Then find the common (mutual) answer. This answer should be the category of your dream job. Let me tell you-

How I answered these four questions?

  1. I love it when my designs or article helps even one person.

  2. I’m good at talking to people for hours on a topic, debating them, so I can write. Also, I am good at editing photos and videos so I can edit or design.

  3. I can be paid to write in a variety of ways (website articles, magazine features, eBooks, novels), or maybe I can be paid to enhance photos, and videos, or create social media posts.

  4. The world needs truth and relatability, especially on subjects that aren’t taught in schools or college. The world needs better designers and video editors to present the subject in the best possible manner that can soothe eyes.

I believe you have done it right and now let me help you to find the next answer.

2. What is my niche?

Suppose, you have selected a category, photography, then which type of photography (portrait, architectural, fashion, sports, still life, etc). Or maybe you have selected, coding, then which type of code or what problem you want to solve by your skill (app, website, security, error control, medical, robotics, automation, etc). It's like selling something in a business. But here your certain skill set is the product/service (portrait photography + editing + Instagram marketing).

Try to learn every niche (portrait, architectural, fashion, sports, still life, etc) in the category (photography) but become a master of a niche (like portrait photography) which already satisfies those four questions as this is coming from a category that satisfies all four questions.

How I found my niche?

I found my category as a designer and writer. Currently, my niche is graphic designing (pamphlet, logo, Instagram post/stories, etc.) as I have said try to learn every niche but master one entirely and then grab other than others in the same category my next aim is to become a website designer.

I can write thoughts and articles, so I am producing these articles and also I have a small Instagram account for my thoughts. Feel unrestricted to look at it. 


I also have a small page on Instagram, related to my editing profile, you are most welcome to wander.

I believe you can do it right and it's all trial and error processes go through, you will find the niche. Now, let me help you to find the next answer.

3. How I can get that job (requirements)?

Find the job postings on google search directly or any other platform where you can enquire, for example, LinkedIn. See the salary range, they are providing and the qualifications they want. 

(My LinkedIn Profile link feel free to connect there)

Get the appropriate degree or the course, do the test projects, post the professional life there, and believe me it's the way to build a nice resume and nicer professional profile on LinkedIn. Skills can feed you but you have to get a degree to be qualified to appear in most of the job openings. Really, what matters is experience and knowledge but you have to have a degree.

Advice that I would give to my younger self in the first year of college.

  1. Don't rely on universities or formal education so much or entirely, do it your own way also besides the formal education.
    • Have Skill
    • Learn from the best.
    • Do it for free, if you have to.
    • Keep going and have the guts to accept "NO".
  2. Only a resume will not get you the job. You also need these things:
    • Network (tell every single person to let you know about the job you need, it can be Relatives/Family/Friends).
    • Reference (ask for reference if any of your friends or maybe a friend's friend or senior who is in your desired firm/company).
    • Experience (but if you are a fresher you should have a little bit of working knowledge or personal projects to show)
    • And of course, the Resume (a decent resume not over-exaggerated, you can use any free tool to build a resume, my favorite is Canva).
  3. Don't just surf Instagram, spend some time on LinkedIn as well.
  4. About LinkedIn:
    1. Add the degree (category)
    2. Add your courses (the niches)
    3. Also post every professional achievement (college projects, degree ceremony, college fest, or event) on LinkedIn, to build a trustworthy profile.
    4. A study found that 122 million people received an interview through LinkedIn.
    5. Keep adding the courses certificate or skill or niche. Expand in your category and keep learning and updating yourself.

Survival of the Fittest

Learn New Skills as soon as possible before it's commoditized or gets automated. Try to expand in a new niche whenever you can as you can only sustain if you can provide continuously by outperforming your boundaries.

Some of my favorite quotes to motivate you.

  1. There are no shortcuts to success, only work, work, work until success.
  2. Slow and steady wins the race.
  3. Consistent, effective effort leads to success.
  4. Do what you feel is right so that you won't regret it later.

Caste System: Bhagwat Geeta Chapter 18, Verse 41

Why was the caste system created? The exact origins of the caste system are complex and debated, but it is generally believed to have emerged in India around 1500 BCE. There are several theories about why the caste system was created, but the most common explanations include: Social division of labor: One theory suggests that the caste system arose as a way to organize society and assign different occupational roles. The four main castes, Brahmins (priests and intellectuals), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and traders), and Shudras (laborers and servants), were believed to be divinely ordained and reflected the different tasks needed to maintain a functioning society. Does it matter in modern society? The social division of labor theory, which suggests that the caste system arose as a way to organize society and assign different occupational roles, is a complex and controversial topic. There is no easy answer to the question of whether or not it matters today, a...
