Because, you know, as human beings, we like the idea of certainty, but not knowing what actually we want to do with our career or whether we're really going to enjoy it, can actually be profoundly uncertain. And even if you know what you want to do and what you enjoy, there's actually no guarantee that you're going to be able to turn that into a well-paying and successful career, which again, adds to the stress. And so that translates into this career anxiety that a lot of us can feel, a lot of worries and apprehensions and self-doubts about whether we're actually on the right path and whether we're actually truly fulfilled in our current jobs. Now, a little while back, I spoke to a professor of behavioral science, Grace Lordan, who has written a book all about how to find and succeed in a career that you actually enjoy. And so, in this video, we're going to talk about seven evidence-based techniques that you can use to move more towards a career that you actually enjoy. Tip one, Task over Title. I've noticed a lot of times when I talk to people about careers, they're attached to a label, so they want to be a trader or an investment banker or they want to be a doctor, or they're attached to a lifestyle, so they want to be able to go on a particular vacation or buy a particular car. And the kind of think big journey is really thinking about, if I were to be a doctor, if I were to be a trader, what would be the tasks that I would be doing on a day-to-day basis and would I ultimately end up enjoying those tasks? So the activities that I'm going to spend the time in. Now, there's so many studies from the field of psychology that show that a lot of your success in a career actually comes down to your happiness in that particular job. And what Professor Lordan is saying is that if you focus too much on the title of the job, you can actually forget about what the day-to-day of the thing actually involves. Now, this might sound super boring and obvious, but actually, I've seen so many people, and I I used to fall into this trap myself as well of thinking that like the career title of like, oh, it would be cool to be a neurosurgeon. It would be cool to be a plastic surgeon. But it was only after I started doing some research into this career stuff that I realized, hang on, instead of worrying about the title, I should actually be thinking about what will my day-to-day job involve as a neurosurgeon? Is it actually as glamorous as the thing potentially sounds? And this relates to an idea from Tim Urban called Pixel Theory, which is the idea that life is a picture, but we live in an individual pixel of that picture. So basically, what that means is that we might think of our life as being this broad brushstroke, beautiful painting of like, you know, what's our job title? What are we doing for fun? What are okay, like this this big kind of high-level thing. But actually, a lot of your happiness is governed by the day-to-day. Like, what does your calendar look like on a given day? And so, when it comes to finding a job that you actually love, finding a career that you actually love, thinking about the day-to-day nature of the tasks rather than the broad abstract nature of the job title, is potentially one way to help with that. Tip number two, visualize your Me+. Now, this was actually one of my favorite ideas from the book. The idea that you should visualize what Me+ is going to look like. And Me+ is basically me, or you, but it's like the the plus version of you, kind of the version that you aspire to be. And this is the exercise that she's got in the book on how you can visualize what your Me+ is going to be doing. And so, you can fill these questions out for yourself, and I've actually written them in the video description, so you can just have a look there if you feel like it. But we're asking, you know, the overall big thinking goal for Me+ is dot dot dot. What is Me+'s job title? Which industry will Me+ be working in? What's the company that Me+ is going to be working for? It might be your own. Me+ will be running or working in a company that has the following characteristics. And you can add in what sort of responsibilities you would want your Me+ role to have. And then on the following page, we've got a few examples of what sort of tasks you might want your Me+ to actually be doing. And then I've gone through and I've highlighted some of the stuff that's most relevant to me, like, I want to be disrupting how people think about things. Writing consultation advice to others, coaching and developing others, solving problems, updating and drawing on relevant knowledge, teaching and training, performing for the public, creating and selling art, all of these different things that I will I like the idea of being in a career where I'm doing these sorts of activities. And so, really the point here is that on this first page, when you're defining this Me+ thing, you are kind of thinking about what's your job title and what kind of what's the big picture of what you're going to be doing in this career that you really enjoy. But then, on the next page, you're kind of drilling more down into what are the specific tasks that you personally enjoy doing. And once you know that, then you can start taking small steps towards achieving that particular thing and hopefully work towards the career that you actually enjoy. A lot of the jobs that look exciting, they look exciting because on TV they're glamorized. I mean, law always is is one that comes into my mind. And I think I would be a terrible lawyer because the commitment to a day-to-day that's like 6:00 in the morning to 8:00 in the evening is absolutely something that you still need today, sadly. But people don't know about that before they go in. And I think when it comes to your think big journey, it's about what would the tasks that I would be doing in 10 years time? How would I spend my Monday morning? How would I spend my Tuesday morning? Tip number three, audit your time. Now, again, this is a pretty simple strategy that you can use to move more towards a career that you actually enjoy, and it involves auditing your time. During the week, writing down what you're you're actually doing, which you probably do already, but writing down whether or not you actually enjoy doing them. Did you feel first the sense of purpose that it was kind of leading you to a better place in five years time or did you feel fun in the moment? Okay, so how does this actually work in practice? Okay, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to screenshot my calendar, and then I can use the screenshot to audit how I feel about how I'm spending my time. And so, if something on my calendar is really taking me towards Me+, I can do a double plus on there. Then if something is taking me somewhat towards Me+, I can put a plus. If something doesn't really help me get closer to Me+, then I can write plus minus. And if there's something that's actively taking me away from the thing that I want, then I can do minus minus for that. And so, what Grace says in the book is that once you figured out what these, in particular, what these minus minus things are, these are the things you actively want to avoid. These are the time sinkers. I'm pretty lucky because I have built a career for myself that I actually enjoy, and so I have I basically have zero minus minuses on my calendar. But back when I was at university, back when I was working as a doctor, a lot of my stuff on the calendar would have been minus minus, and I've slowly worked to kind of eliminate those things that drain my energy, that don't actually get me towards a career that I actually enjoy. Tip number four, invest 13 minutes per day. And so, the other side of the coin here is that we also want to be investing in activities that take us closer towards Me+, i.e. closer towards this career that we actually enjoy. And when it comes to thinking about this, Professor Lordan talks a lot about the idea of compounding. So, when people are choosing to invest, we accept compounding very very easily, right? So, we accept the idea actually that, you know, if we leave money in for a very long period of time, it's going to compound, so we're probably going to be okay in our pensions. And it's exactly the same here when it comes to your career. Like those very small things that you're going to do today, and I ask for a commitment of 90 minutes a week, which for most people, regardless of how pressurized you feel, is very very possible. And when you do the maths, this is actually very doable. 90 minutes a week is just 13 minutes a day. We can all invest 13 minutes a day in trying to invest in skills or abilities that are going to help us develop a career that we actually enjoy. And so, for example, if for you, part of building towards this career you enjoy is, for example, learning how to code, you can probably find 13 minutes a day to learn how to code. Yes, you probably can't become absolutely pro in just 13 minutes a day, but it's definitely a skill that compounds over time. Now, recently, I also had the chance to interview Cal Newport, who is a professor of computer science and who's written a bunch of books called including Deep Work and So Good They Can't Ignore You, about this sort of like study skills, productivity type stuff. And he talks a lot about Career Capital Theory. Basically, the idea is that if you want a career that you actually enjoy, it's not just something that's going to fall into your lap. It's something that you have to earn. And the way you earn it is by developing career capital. And the way you develop career capital is by developing rare and valuable skills. And this ties into this idea of like, if you genuinely want a career that you enjoy, you've got to actually have the skills for the job. And so, if you can invest this 13 minutes a day into the development of your skills, then you're going to be winning on that front. Tip number five, you probably don't need to go back to university. For people who do not know what they want to do, I would avoid committing to a four-year degree or an expensive master's program and really use the resources that are out there that are either cheap or free because there's so many things that we can actually learn now without having to set foot in in into a traditional classroom. Now, I found this point pretty surprising, given that Professor Lordan is a university professor and is therefore at least somewhat, you know, biased towards in favor of university education. But to be honest, these days, you know, university is not completely worthless. I've massively benefited from a uni degree and I genuinely do recommend that people go to college or university or whatever that is, at least it gives you backup options. But especially when people are like a little bit further on in their career, it's often like a very easy thing to be like, oh, I need to do the thing, therefore I'm going to go back to uni. I'm going to get a degree in the thing. I don't know. At least from people I know who are recruiting for jobs, like getting an MBA, people with an MBA are actually looked down less favorably than people who have actually had some real entrepreneurial experience. So, don't necessarily default to thinking, let me let me get a traditional qualification in the particular thing because you can learn almost anything on the internet and through books and libraries and stuff these days. Tip number six, embrace U-turns. Okay, so at this point, we know what tasks we might want to do on a day-to-day basis to get towards this level of Me+ or this career that we actually enjoy. And we know what kind of skills we need to get there and therefore we're going to develop those skills and compound them over time. But even once you've nailed those things, you might still want to make some changes to your career. Like, we as humans are generally pretty bad at estimating what our preferences and our values are necessarily going to be in the future. For example, when I was 16, I decided I wanted to be a doctor. 10 years later, I was like, ah, I'm not really sure this medicine thing is for me. And this relates to an idea in psychology called The End of History Illusion. And this is psychologist Dan Gilbert explaining the End of History Illusion. We asked thousands of people. We asked half of them to predict for us how much their values would change in the next 10 years. And the other is to tell us how much their values had changed in the last 10 years. And this enabled us to do a really interesting kind of analysis because it allowed us to compare the predictions of people say 18 years old to the reports of people who were 28. And to do that kind of analysis throughout the lifespan. Here's what we found. First of all, you're right, change does slow down as we age. But second, you're wrong because it doesn't slow nearly as much as we think. At every age from 18 to 68 in our data set, people vastly underestimated how much change they would experience over the next 10 years. We call this the End of History Illusion. So, firstly, we're quite bad at predicting how things are going to change for us. But secondly, we're also weirdly averse to the idea of a U-turn. There is this idea that if you change your mind, that means you're not being consistent and you're not being like integrity, like whatever the thing is people used to describe this. But one of my key takeaways from the conversation with Professor Lordan is that when it comes to careers, U-turns are actually probably a good thing. One of the problems in society today is that we think that good citizens, good leaders should never change their mind. And I think in COVID, that was to the detriment of many countries because it took a lot for some leaders to come out and say, look, actually this isn't the right strategy. I'm going to now change I'm going to now going to change my mind. So, if I were to think about leaders of the future actually, their ability to stand up and say, I don't know, I got it wrong or I've changed my mind, those three things are really in the forefront of my mind because when you're navigating through uncertainty, you're going to get it wrong sometimes, and that's okay. But it's the deliberate part. Have you sat down and deliberately now changed your mind? And tip number seven, the grid search mindset. And this is again something that she talks about in the book, where the idea is that even if you don't quite have a clear vision for exactly what kind of career you would actually enjoy, what you can do is you can almost use this grid search technique to figure out what activities you enjoy, and then see whether the actions you're taking are moving you closer to this kind of dream career. So, for example, if I'd done this a few years ago, then I might have written that the things that I enjoy are I think teaching and medicine and creative stuff and entrepreneur stuff, just based on kind of my history over the last like several years. And so, for me, for example, kind of my, I guess, career of teaching started around age 13, 14, 15, where I was teaching Kumon at this math study center. That then transitioned into combining teaching with medicine for my company Sixmed. And then at age 23, I started directly teaching medical students and doing these presentations and like using my creative skills and to make nice PowerPoints and stuff like that. And now that's transitioned into this YouTube stuff, where I get to do a little bit of teaching, a little bit of creative stuff, a little bit of entrepreneurship. There's not much medicine in there these days, but hey, you know, it's totally okay to change your mind. And it's easy enough now to connect the dots looking back, being like, oh, yeah, I was super into teaching back when I was like 12 years old. But, I think this is a quote from Steve Jobs, something that it's it's famously easy to connect the dots looking back, but it's really hard to connect the dots looking forward. And so, if you're in a position where you're not yet fully enjoying what you're doing for work, or what your career is, then don't worry. As long as you're continuing to, I guess, think big, define that future for yourself, and then taking small steps towards working towards this career that you enjoy, at some point you'll get there, and then you'll find that, oh crap, firstly, this is not a destination because trying to find a career you enjoy is like a long-term process, but you'll be able to connect the dots looking back and everything along this circuitous path with U-turns and everything will have then made sense in hindsight. And so, as Professor Lordan says, this isn't really about kind of taking U-turns randomly, it's about taking small steps in a particular direction, gathering data, seeing how you feel about that data that you've gathered, and then using that to change course. They get new data, they update their decision-making based on the data, and they're willing to go backwards, or they're willing to go left and they're willing to go right. And always having that openness to a change of direction.

For example, happy people receive higher earnings, exhibit better performance, and obtain more favorable supervisor evaluations than their less happy peers. Researchers have posited that success leads to happiness, but Boehm and Lyubomirsky reviewed the relevant research in 2008 and argued that the alternative hypothesis—that happiness causes success—may be equally plausible. A decade later, we return to the literature to supplement studies we previously cited with new research and to determine whether the results of cross-sectional, longitudinal, and experimental investigations provide additional support for this hypothesis. We conclude that the evidence continues to persuasively suggest that happiness is correlated with and often precedes career success and that experimentally enhancing positive emotions leads to improved outcomes in the workplace.","location":"main body of paper","style":"black serif text"}]}},{"t":116,"speech":"actually comes down to your happiness in that particular job.","visual":{"action":"Ali, wearing a light-colored hoodie and glasses, is visible in a small inset video on the right while a full-screen image of a research paper titled 'Be Happy in your Work: The Role of Positive Psychology in Working with Change and Performance' is displayed.

Grounded within the paradigm of positive psychology, we draw on theory and research from several performance-related domains (including sport and physical activity) to describe the development of happiness in organizations and associated benefits to individuals and groups. Our review highlights the physical and mental health benefits of happiness, bidirectional associations between happiness and work-based performance (occupational success), and the contribution of individual differences (genetics and personality) to happiness and well-being. Moreover, we list a series of empirically guided techniques—often utilized in the domain of sport and performance psychology—that might be considered in the development of happiness in organizations. These include positive mental imagery, hypothetical thinking, cognitive reappraisal (and the development of a challenge state), physical activity, and writing-based interventions. We conclude by offering potential avenues for research inquiry as they relate to change and performance in organizations.","location":"main body of paper","style":"black serif text"}]}},{"t":118,"speech":"And what Professor Lordan is saying is that if you focus too much on the title of the job, you can actually forget about what the day-to-day of the thing actually involves.","visual":{"action":"Ali, wearing a light-colored hoodie and glasses, sits at a desk, gesturing with both hands as he speaks directly to the camera.
