Where To Live?

Where To Live is a fundamental question that serves your happiness. After all life is too short to be unhappy, mad, sad or just a plain grump. And…the work or job you do is one of the major deciding factors on your level of happiness as is the area or environment in which you live.

You might come up with lots of answers to the question of where to live, do the same as you did with desires and needs.  Write them down and go through the process described above.  This is critical in the job search.  There is no point in going for a series of interviews in London if you really want to live in Scotland!

Where Do I Want To Live?

You will quickly realise that you have made a wrong decision.  If you feel you want to move, but find yourself unwilling (as is common), ask yourself why?  What is stopping you?  The answer in many cases is that people feel they have invested heavily in their property and are simply not willing to let that go. It may be that children have to be taken into consideration, but…if where you are living does not make you happy, change your mindset, and make a move to somewhere that does!

There may be obstacles to overcome, but it will produce more happiness in your life and enhance your work performance.

However, without going through this process, you may not understand why it was the wrong choice.  You may, therefore, make the fatal mistake of believing, for example, you have joined the wrong company, when it is really working in London that you do not like. If this happens, you are just as likely to get yet another job in London, and be unhappy yet again when the real answer is a new career in Edinburgh.  If you do not analyse this question of where to live thoroughly you may never know the reason why you are unhappy.
