Answers: How do I know what career to pursue and what makes work satisfying?
- Career satisfaction
- Self-Determination Theory
- Work-life balance
- Creative autonomy
- Skill development
What it concludes
- Work satisfaction depends on the traits and qualities of the work itself rather than a specific job title or company.
- Fulfilling work requires autonomy, competence, and relatedness.
- Work should be evaluated based on whether you are building or maintaining, and whether you are learning new skills.
- Self-worth should not be defined by applause from others, and one should actively raise up others.
- Gaining practical experience through personal projects or volunteering helps overcome the chicken-and-egg problem of needing experience to get hired.
