Job Search Accelerator · Your Living Career Target
What this is: This is where everything from Week 2 becomes concrete and job-shaped. Your values, vision, passions, and priorities have been pointing somewhere — this document names that place. It's aspirational and practical. Be creative. Be honest. Be specific. You can invent your own title. You can dream about the work. Just get it out of your head and onto the page — because a target you can see is a target you can hit.
Living Document: Create a solid first draft now. Return to refine it after Week 3 (Target Research) and Week 4 (Career Capital). Pin it up or keep it open. Your brain needs a clear signal to come back to when motivation drifts.
My Working Job Title — Be creative. You can invent anything.
One-Sentence Vision
Section 2Core Identity – Why This Job Exists for Me
Pull directly from your Future Self and Values worksheets. This grounds the whole document in who you are, not just what you're looking for.
Professional Purpose Statement — from Future Self worksheet
My Top 5–7 Values — from Values worksheet
These must be present in your next role — they are non-negotiable to you
My Top Energizing Work — from Motivation Map (your +2 and +3 activities)
Section 3What I Actually Do – The Heart of the Job
Forget job postings for a moment. What do you actually want to spend your time doing? This is the most creative section — translate your passions and energy into the daily reality of your ideal role.
Key Responsibilities & Tasks I Want to Do Most Days
Section 4Where & How I Work – The Context
The work itself is only part of the equation. Environment, pace, culture, and lifestyle fit matter just as much — especially for long-term sustainability.
Section 5Success & Reward
What does thriving look like in this role — and how does it power the bigger life you're designing?
Section 6Wants vs. Needs Filter
This is your decision engine. Every real opportunity gets run through this list. Pull from your Wants & Needs List — and update both documents as your thinking gets sharper.
Must-Haves / Non-Negotiables — deal-breakers if absent
Nice-to-Haves / Preferences — great, but flexible
