9 to 5?
Numerology Careers
by Richard Pace
We go to a local department store and see a checkout person, probably earning close to minimum wage. He or she is all smiles, working up a happy sweat finding the correct size box for a customer who just bought a gift. Then we notice the manager, who obviously earns much more money with a face down to the floor, looking bored and frustrated. More money should bring greater career enthusiasm, right?Why is it when we hear a person say, "I love my job," we wonder how they can feel that way. We might have a similar job and feel quite differently?
Like ourselves, jobs and careers have personalities of their own. Sometimes people do not quite match up to what they do, which in time becomes glaringly obvious. A painfully shy waitress, a clumsy hair stylist or a bad actor usually find themselves on the unemployment line. But most people use fear as their guide post and train themselves for jobs they never feel are quite right for them. Then they drift from job to job, never really changing their occupation to suit what they want to do.
Numerology offers a way for people to break this kind of pattern and open themselves up to what they want, and how to enjoy getting it. Employment potential derives from the expression number and when it helps a person choose a career it becomes the career stamina number of that person. When we find the right job or career, we usually put every ounce of energy into it. We go about getting everything out of it and very often have more enthusiasm if and when the time comes to go on to something else. Remember, you always have the choice to give up the feeling of being trapped. It is just a feeling!
To find your expression number, which ranges from No. 1 to No. 9 and rules your career stamina, write down your name exactly as it appears on your birth certificate. Using the number grid, write the corresponding numbers above the letters. Add the numbers together, and if you are left with more than one digit, keep adding them together until you have one single number left.

No. 1 Career Stamina
You basically have two options. You can become head of your department
at work, or run your own company. You are a natural born leader
and if you try to play by the rules of other people, you will
drown in self-pity. Moreover, you have a creative nature that
satisfies itself by using your many gifts in innovative ways.
A few career choices: owner or president of any size company,
manager, consultant, program writer, actor or actress and commissioned
salesperson.
No. 2 Career Stamina
After centuries of taking it on the chin, the assistant has finally
come into his or her own. You are the quintessential power behind
the throne and most of you would have it no other way. We know
that if we want to get something done, we go to the boss's right
hand man or woman and, as the French would say-Voila!--things
get done. A few career choices: teacher, personal assistant,
office worker, dancer, musicians, bank worker, and numerologist.
No. 3 Career Stamina
When Shakespeare said that all the world is a stage and we are
merely players, he was talking about you. Not concerned with
the work part of your job, you usually concern yourself with the
work environment. Do you look good? Do the people which you
work with look good? In the right job, you are the happiest
person on earth. You are the person usually dubbed "smiley."
A few career choices: hair stylist, actor or actress, fashion
designer, makeup artist and craft designer.
No. 4 Career Stamina
You are the foundation builder. The one who actually goes about
giving the rest of us something to do. The only person who can
really appreciate you for your contribution is yourself. Take
time out from your busy schedule (even when you are on vacation
your mind is racing a mile a minute) and congratulate yourself.
You are the living example of the work ethic. A few career choices:
any occupation in building things with your hands, Realtor, contractor
and manufacturer.
No. 5 Career Stamina
Free and easy is your style, not your job. Sometimes you get
that mixed up and drive everyone around you crazy. In order to
be happy in a career, you need to know that you are going to see
new faces, visit a variety of places and get to have plenty of
time off. You are the one whom everyone else is always looking
for in the workplace, not because they need you, but because they
are wondering where you went. A few career choices: waiter or
waitress, actor or actress and chauffeur.
No. 6 Career Stamina
Right from the start when you were daddy's or mommie's little
helper; everyone knew you would never be one to waste precious
time. Your concern is the environment, be it home or work, and
you have some very creative ideas on how to get your job done.
Taking on more than one job at a time is usually your style,
and working with you is sometimes a dream come true. A few career
choices: doctor, nurse, construction worker, environmentalist,
store owner and artist.
No. 7 Career Stamina
If some of you are know-it-alls, that is because you indeed know
it all. You have a capacity to learn whatever your superior minds
absorb. Unfortunately, when it is fed garbage, you might find
yourself thinking unproductive thoughts. Appreciated for your
ideas, you come up with ways of getting work done that use logic
and common sense. A few career choices: psychic, psychoanalyst,
an expert on a particular subject, teacher, CPA and bank worker.
Hint: Quiet your mind.
No. 8 Career Stamina
You have the most physical energy and the strongest mental stamina.
Your problem is that you think so big, you become unwilling to
put the amount of work necessary into what needs to be done.
Your leadership capacity is solid. People around you realize
that you know what you are doing and will follow your instructions.
Avoid becoming resentful of other leaders. A few career choices
are: chairman-of-the-board, professional athlete, movie producer
and body-builder.
No. 9 Career Stamina
You can be all things to all people, but somehow that does not
pay the bills. You need a broad-scoped perspective. You are
happiest when you serve many people at once. When there is tension
in the workplace, you have a hard time concentrating. You must
stay far away from disgruntled co-workers if you are ever going
to be successful. Avoid feeling sorry for them. Tell them that
work is what they are hired to do. A few career choices are:
doctor, lawyer, decorator, clergyman or clergywoman, dental and
hospital worker.
