Best Job in the World- Housing and Relocation?

Today I was priveleged to meet Ben Southall, who was the winner of the "The Best Job in the World" offered by tourism Queensland. Ben was chosen from amongst 35,000 other applicants for the position that involved marketing the Great Barrier Reef to the rest of world. Under the contract he won, he received a salary of 150,000 Australian dollars and a free 3-bedroom holiday house that looked out on the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef for the entirety of the 6-month contract.

Here is the video that got Ben the job.



What was interesting with Ben at the lunch today, is that it made me realize that not only do I have the best job in the world for me, but that I should be aiming to create a company whereby everyone else considers that they have the best job in the world too.

Ben made me think about;

- How we tend to get too caught up in ourselves and "life as it should be", which has been defined by our parents, friends, society....when there are other ways to live it

- There is much more to life than just do a job. You gotta make it fun and you gotta believe it's the best job in the world

- How what you experience by travelling and meeting different people equips you with many skills that are necessary in business

- How we should live everyday like its our last, but also live with a purpose.

- How the world around us is changing so much in how a company should market its products or services. Just look at how Ben got his job, and how he is promoting Queesnland Austrlia around the world on http://www.islandreefjob.com.au and through other mediums such as Twitter, You Tube, etc.

- How far Japan is behind on the marketing of its Tourism Industry

Ben is continuing his position with Queensland Tourism as thier Toursim Ambassador. We should all continue to be Ambassadors ourselves and make our companies into the places with the best jobs in the world!
