Often times in today’s world our parents and society in general will ask us, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”. Usually most youth don’t have an answer; I myself don’t have an answer. I’m not saying you have to decide right now but some ideas and options can be useful to alleviate the tension involved with choosing your future career.
There’s a lot to take in mind when you are choosing your career. You need to implement the most important things in your life into your career choice. Are you interested in creating new things, making the world a better place, being famous? You are not limited to what career you choose. Walt Disney often advocated, “If you can DREAM it, you can DO it.”
There is no need to get scared of which career will lead to success or failure, because “success is only what you think of it.” I’m not saying don’t worry about having a successful career but still have an enjoyable one. You’ll do better at a job if you like it. You’ll be happy, You’ll be someone you want to be.
Though you should choose what career you want, it matters on what type of happiness you want. Happiness has a cost, there are conditions on the career you want. Being somebody who works long or someone who makes less. It also depends if you believe happiness lies within money or not.
“The best way to predict the future is to create it.” (Abraham Lincoln)
