If you are exploring what career best suits you, what is your method to find the skills that others find valuable? A job that is enjoyable most days?

As someone who has hired and fired quite a few people, the #1 skill that I find most attractive is self-motivation. Those are the people that you are not having to constantly look over their shoulder to make sure work is being done. It's not necessary that you always get it right, but that you work at it hard with creativity. That's incredibly valuable.

As for an enjoyable job - if you don't like being indoors all day, don't get a desk job. I know it sounds obvious, but there are countless people that do this on a day in, day out basis. Don't necessarily look for a job that you want. Search for what you like to do that the job will provide. If you like to problem solve, maybe look at the software field where you can build software to creatively solve problems. If you like cultivating relationships with people, look to find a job where that need will be met, even if the job "title" or duties aren't glamorous.

You've explained it well already - align your work with your values, and you can find joy in whatever you do.

Conversation with Thomas is always a breath of fresh air. He is thorough, to the point, draws answers from his experiences and openly tells what worked for him and what didn't. He is also down to earth and a great human being. I am so thankful for his chat and I also thank Clarify for making this happen.

Straight and to the point. I had questions about how to price and position my product and Thomas shared from his experience and gave me exactly what I needed to hear. Very humble, down to earth guy! Highly recommend.

Thomas has always impressed me with his entrepreneurial drive and ambition. He is someone who is wise beyond his years. I've collaborated with Thomas on various projects, and he has always delivered quality work on time. Along with a deep technical understanding, he has the ability to deliver work that is effective in meeting real business goals. I would recommend Thomas without hesitation.

I specifically asked Thomas for the opportunity to provide a recommendation for him because he has been so incredible to work with. From his turnaround time to the value he provides and his high-quality work, Thomas is hard to beat. I've had the pleasure of working with him on several projects and he has exceeded my expectations each time. I will, without a doubt, turn to him again in the future when I need design/development services.

Thomas was the "go to" guy for a number of issues I was having with a client's site. He fixed what was wrong and offered clear and insightful solutions to other ideas we had. I can see we'll be working together on a number of new projects I have that are coming up.
