"We all want to find a dream job that’s enjoyable and meaningful, but
what does that actually mean?

Some people imagine that the answer involves discovering their passion
through a flash of insight, while others think that the key elements of
their dream job are that it be easy and highly paid.

We’ve reviewed two decades of research into the causes of a satisfying
life and career, drawing on over 60 studies, and we didn’t find much
evidence for these views.

Instead, we found six key ingredients of a dream job. They don’t include
income, and they aren’t as simple as “following your passion”."
