1. Reflect On Yourself
Take time to reflect on your interests, passions, experience, what you are good at, and your direction.
What are you interested in? What do you love? list the things that you're interested in.
Your interests are the things you like, that other people are doing, the things you are craving to learn, the things you are trying to get better at, and so on.
The deeper you go, the more interesting it becomes. Here are a few questions you can ask yourself. What are the things you love, and you can spend money on to learn more? It may be books, coding, dancing, drawing, and so on. Which kind of articles do you read online?
What topics do they cover? What have you been searching for hours on your Google? Go to your history, find out the things you always do.
Example
The things that I'm interested in: I love philosophy, theology, and psychology.
passion is a strong feeling of love, enthusiasm, and excitement. It is that inner desire that drives us to do things. Passion is the things we love to do, something we strive to know. Are you excited when reading, travelling, drawing, singing, or playing musical instruments? That is your passion.
Parents should let their children try many new things, and repeat the old things. So they can discover their path in life, built by their chosen passions. Their passion will be the driving force that will push them to be consistent. Hermann Hesse said, "What many call passion is not spiritual force, but friction between the soul and the outside world."
My good friend once said to me that if I am passionate about music, I will strive to be in practice, even when it is raining.
Your Experience is very important, it is the best teacher. Reflect on the activity you have done. My teaching experience started in my childhood at the block rosary crusade. Our leader appoints us to do different tasks like leading the prayer, preaching the word of God. It wasn't fun at all, I was always under pressure, filled with stage fright. As a child, my mouth was always dry, I rumble with words. But. after I do it I am always happy and relieved. That was how it started, and up till this moment, I still feel nervous when I start to teach a new group. I always focus on how I will feel after delivering the topic. It has been fun.
What Are You Good At?
find what you want to do, find out what you're good at, ask your friends, ask your family. There are things that you're good at. You may not notice it because you assume everyone knows it. Think about the things you can do with ease. Write it in verbs and not nouns because nouns limit your thinking process. If you say I'm good at math, it feels like a big statement because math is a broad subject. if you don't master every topic in math, it feels like the statement is not correct. But if you say something like I'm good at solving problems, the action word "solving problem" becomes strength when you apply it to any problem you encounter in life and you'll be good at doing that thing.
You want to focus on the skills you have. you may be good at analyzing, solving problems and making good decisions. These types of skills that we use in everyday situations. This involves brainstorming to do it. First, complete it all and then go on to pick out the specific ones, because our brain does not handle divergent and convergent thinking at the same time.
This is a mistake most of us make. We are trying to think of lots of things and also sorting or narrowing them down at the same time. You have to do all divergent thinking first; then once you list them out of your brain, you can sort or narrow down to what you want.
Your direction could be teaching, how to solve day-by-day problems and then sharing your findings, strategy and tools with different groups of people online or in any congregation.
2. Explore Diverse Activities
Explore diverse activities. Choose what you want from your hobbies, I encourage you to be open-minded to try new things. That can help you discover your hidden talents, you may be unaware of. Hobbies are activities that you enjoy doing in your spare time, such as storytelling, fine art, graphic design, indoor and outdoor sports, web design and others.
3. Track Your Progress
By keeping a journal daily. It helps track your progress. It enables you to reflect on the things you do. When you write daily about things you do, you can check the task you do with ease. This can help you identify patterns that expose your strengths and weaknesses. You will see things and recognise your interests.
4. Take Advantage Of The Trend
I realize a lot of people have no clue about the solution to their problem. They keep blaming other people for their misfortune. You can take advantage of this. You can use your skill to help them analyze their problem, zoom in and narrow down to the fundamental causes of the problem. You can render different solutions to their problem.
In conclusion, the essence of doing all this is to find your strength. It will help simplify what you need and focus on your interests. And it will help you work with the things that you're interested in, rather than doing things that are out of what you need.
