A person cannot align his career unless he has aligned his personal life. He knows what he is headed to, what he wants and how to get it. Many people are so focused on their career but their personal life is in a mess.
Career goals must be aligned to one's personal mission and life goals. If a person has a personal mission of making his life meaningful and memorable, he will align his career towards that direction. He will probably choose a job where he can maximize his service to others, make decisions that will not only serve his personal interest and always rigtheous in his actions and decisions.
As a starting point in your personal and professional growth, make your personal mission-vision statement. This represents your desired ultimate outcome - what your life stands for and the contributions you want to make.
As an example, let me share my own.
MY PERSONAL MISSION
To maximize my contributions in making this world a better place to live in by reaching out to others with the use of my GOD given talents and resources.
MY ULTIMATE VISION
I envision myself coming face to face with my Creator, happy to make an account of my contributions in the mission that he has entrusted me.
