When thinking about your potential career, you must consider
YOU! Finding a career can be overwhelming, we often look for approval from
society, family, peers and MONEY to contribute to your decision. The
interesting thing about finding a career is that you learn more about yourself.
When considering a career, Alan Watts, psychologist poses
the question if money wasn’t a factor what would you do? Hmmm…if you’re like
me, I will move somewhere tropical, sip martinis all day, and travel the world.
Sound good? Then what? Knowing me, after while I will become complacent. Trust
me, you will too. Find out what makes you happy.
2. The People Factor
Listening to people may be a good idea. If people are saying
that you are a good listener, investigate potential careers that utilize that
skill. If you are able to explain a concept that people find difficult to
understand, maybe you should research teaching, counseling or other careers.
People may be the answer to identifying your career.
3. Trust Yourself
Many people doubt their innate abilities and instinct. Take risks and explore opportunities. It’s
the only to learn more about yourself and potentially discover your career.
Meet new people, scheduled information interviews with people in your interest
field, learn new skills, and always join professional organizations.
