For job seekers: get specific as a starting point. Instead of just wanting a job, or a job in the industry, look to get specific enough where you have identified a company. A role. If you're unsure, look at alumni. Those with the same or similar degrees might give you an idea of what roles might be suitable for you.
For purpose seekers: Do the "retirement memo" exercise. Do the "Eulogy" exercise. If those are challenging for you, then do the "I want" exercise. If you still get stuck, change it to "I wish" or do an "Ikigai brainstorm".

At the end of the day, take some time to get some clarity on what it is that you want!

It seems like an obvious question and often folks don't take the time to ask themselves the question. I've also found that age is having less to do with it as there are fewer people late in their careers that ask themselves this question, and more younger people asking themselves.

So take the time to ask yourself: what do you want? in your career? in your life?

The operative word is" what do YOU want?". Many have wants that come from parents, family, friends, their culture, society or somewhere external. When they ask the question and take a minute to be selfish, they often find that the answer causes them to be more selfless. They realize they don't really want the fancy car, impressive title, or huge salary. There are other things that fulfill their legacy.

Write down "I want" then whatever it is you want. It could be a thing. An experience. A skill. An achievement. Whatever you want. Some people write pages and pages. Others get stuck at number 8. At the end of the day, it's important to ask yourself what you want.

You can look at the Japanese concept of Ikigai to help you with the brainstorming

Plus know that you can change. So checking in on yourself periodically to see what has changed.

Have you actually taken the time to ask WHAT do you want? If you don't know what you want, how do you figure it out?
When you know WHAT you want, the next step for driven motivation is to understand WHY.
Then when you know WHAT and WHY, the HOW usually presents itself (though we share tools to make that approach easier).

Hosted by Luki Danukarjanto: a computer scientist turned management consultant turned entrepreneur/educator. He walks you through his journey so you can understand where the SIWIKE comes from so all of his insights come from his experience.

• former campus recruiter and talent lead --> first hand knowledge of the process
• former management consultant --> lots of real-world career experience
• life-long- learner --> he continually consumes books, podcasts and other content to share with you, and how he relates them all together

He has a bunch of goals that point to the types of topics you might hear on future shows:

• to weave mentorship into the fabric of society (starting by making Toronto the mentorship capital of the world: topics like how to network, empathy, emotional intelligence, etc.)
• elevate education (teaching soft-skills to complement the hard-skills from school: topics like learning to learn, time management, effective communication, etc.)
• to positively impact a billion people (or at least as many as he can: topics like understanding your purpose, finding fulfillment, etc.)
