One of the things I’m most thankful for as I wake each morning is having a job that I love. Not only that, it’s incredibly rewarding to be surrounded by people who also love what they do. Virgin is a company that prides itself on a happy, motivated workforce.

Sadly there are a lot of people who are not fortunate enough to have a job which they are passionate about. This was all too apparent when I recently watched a short film on career fulfilment made by my son Sam’s production company Sundog Pictures. There were a few lines that really struck home, in particular one person explaining how a change of career had made them feel:

In my old job I felt like I was plodding every step of the way, but now it feels like I’m gliding through life.”

We would all like to have a fulfilling career, but what steps do you need to take to make it happen? One of the major stumbling blocks for most people is fear, quite understandably. You might have found yourself in a well-paid and highly respected position; even if you’re unhappy in the role, leaving it behind can be a daunting task.
