Which life skills will benefit you the most in your job search? Well, that depends on which job you want, which skills you’re interested in developing, and which skills you think will provide value in various positions. So how does this tie in with video games? Video games present us with opportunities to take one of many paths. You can become an assassin, a mage, a superhero, a race car driver, and even a monster trainer. 😁
No matter which direction you take, you win. That’s because in each role you can learn skills that will enhance the experience for you. It’s the same thing in reality -- what you learn can enrich your life and open up new opportunities. So focus on skills that strike a balance between valuable in your career and valuable to you personally. Perhaps that’s learning a language. Or improving your coding skills. Or maybe it’s becoming a better writer.
When you find the words to convey your value to others (something you’ll learn how to do in my course “I Got This: How to Overcome 7 Common Job Search Challenges”https://lnkd.in/ebPPFvAk), you’ll job search with greater intention and purpose. It’s time to become a serial skiller -- keep learning and never stop!
