Career or Calling?

Career or Calling?


I have experienced redundancy twice in my lifetime. Thirty years ago, a younger version of me saw it as carpe diem! An opportunity to move up another rung of the corporate ladder of success! Fast forward to my second rodeo...an enlightened, more mature me, armed with over twenty years of HR Management experience and knowledge.The question loomed - What next...Career or Calling?


Hmmm, let’s see…


Career I carve out

Calling I ALIGN with

PURPOSE...


Career advances me

Calling advances OTHERS

SIGNIFICANCE...


Career = must do

Calling = WANT to do

PASSION...


Career builds Resume

Calling leaves LEGACY

IMPACT...


Career ends

Calling is for LIFE

AGELESS...


A metacosm of timing and calling, plus the assurance from my favorite book that my gifts will make room for me, have helped me shift from career to calling. It’s a question we must all answer at some point - Career or Calling?
