On our 3rd meeting in my Lasallian Business Leadership and Ethics class, we talked about the different stages of work and was given the chance to discuss among ourselves on where we think we are currently in the matrix provided.
On the matrix, there are 3 stages of work with the highest being a work of service to others and the lowest as seeing work as work. I have personally shared that I am still at stage 1 where I still see work as work and still haven't really found the meaning in my chosen career.
While driving home, I started to reflect about our class discussion and thought about the reasons on what can help me reach the highest level of work and service. I realized that in order to achieve that level, I have to do and to change a number of things in my life. First, I have to find something which I truly love to do. Having said this, in order to find my highest purpose in life, I should be able to find and identify that one thing that I really love to do. I have to find the work which I would be willing to do even without getting paid. Second realization is that when I find that one thing then I should do everything I can to excel in that field and to enhance my skills and capabilities to be the best in my chosen field and lastly, I should continue learning everything I can until such time comes as the saying goes, luck is when opportunity meets preparation.
Also, while doing my life plan and financial planning worksheet, I realized that still want to achieve a lot of things in life. When I think of myself 10 years from now, I see myself as a successful entrepreneur living a happily married life. Thinking about my current situation, I believe that I am in the right path in pursuing my goals. I also believe that by the MBA program which I am currently taking up will help me reach my goals.
