Performing on the wrong stage

You might be a good traditional dancer, but you would be totally unimpressive at an urban rock concert. Being on the right stage is crucial for success in any field. The right stage appreciates your unique craft, which you are good at and passionate about.

The right stage could be the right career. Not all career paths are good for you. Find the career best suited to your natural talents and gifts. If you enjoy talking, a career in the media industry may be best. If you are good with numbers, a career in accounting may be best.

The right stage might be the right business for you. Don’t pursue any business just for the promised huge profits. The right business is the one that matches your potential and competence. Some businesses are too hard for you, and you will literally die trying to pursue them. The right business is one you can master and create the most value with.

The right stage might be the right environment and geographical location for you. The right location may involve moving to another country or town. Don’t be afraid to move to another place where your potential is appreciated. This may also mean changing jobs or careers.

Finding the right stage involves getting and pursuing the right vision which may come from experimentation and some reflection. Reflect on what you are good at and naturally gifted at. Obtain feedback from friends, family, and colleagues on what you are good at and not. Take an online personality test to figure out who you are. Pray and meditate and ask for spiritual guidance. Experiment as much as you can as you craft your vision and seek the right stage.

You will eventually find the right stage for you, where you will perform your best craft, and the crowd will be captivated and shower you with praise and money. Once you find this stage, success will not only be guaranteed, but it will also bring meaning and satisfaction to yourself and many other people.
