An Easy Way to Determine Your Career Passion

Across the internet, magazines, podcasts, shows and more, you can stumble across advice on finding your career passion. Trying out volunteer positions, journaling, internships, taking a personality test, the advice is endless! However, an easy way to really focus on your career passion is by giving things away.

Ask yourself - What knowledge do you have that could benefit others? Give it away.

What might you be able to help others with? Give it away.

While “free” isn’t an ideal business model, it will allow you to uncover:

1. What you like to do.

2. What others value.

3. What others are willing to pay for.

Your career passion is determined through the intersection of those three points above. Once you’ve identified something you like to do, others value, and others are willing to pay for, this becomes your career passion.


Unsure what to give away?

Consider the following objectives as you get started in determining what to do:

1. Test what it might be like to start a business you are passionate about

2. Consider how you might monetize what you offer.

3. Ask for feedback about what you are offering.

4. Get testimonials from those you’ve given to, as you start to consider charging.

5. Increase creativity and productivity by seeing the difference your contributions have made to others.

6. Congratulate yourself on doing instead of just thinking.


Experiment with your interests as you craft your ideal career. Remember, you want something you enjoy doing, something others value, and something others are willing to pay for – your career passion. Not only are you helping others, but you’re also living your own fulfilled life at the same time.
