Sometimes a person has a choice of what to do next. The profession must be chosen before the institute, sometimes after graduation, and sometimes even after dismissal. And here it is important not to make a mistake, but to go where it will be comfortable, and the earnings will suit you.
Instructions
Step 1
Write down a list of the things you would like to do. Just do not limit yourself to the framework, even to become an astronaut, if this is a real dream, it should be included in the list. Sometimes there will be points that are difficult to express in words, it is possible that there are no such professions, but you understand that this is interesting. And fix this too.
Step 2
Look closely at the resulting list. Now you have to choose the most suitable from it. There is definitely an item in it that you do not like, but those around you would like to see you in this role. There may even be several such activities, but your soul does not lie with them. Cross them out without regret, because you are looking for something that will bring both profit and joy.
Step 3
Ask yourself which of these things I am willing to do for more than 10 years every day for 8 hours. And present each item after such a period of time. You will immediately understand that some options are simply not suitable, they are interesting for several months or years, but definitely not for life. Take them off the list, this is just a hobby, not serious pursuits.
Step 4
Continue to analyze the created material, think about whether you will develop in each of the positions presented? Will you need additional training, knowledge of some things, gaining new experience? If a person repeats the same function, if he does something concrete all the time, he does not develop. A feeling of absolute uselessness appears very quickly. Human life is learning, the accumulation of knowledge and events, but not every job gives it. Remove work that is not conducive to personal growth and development.
Step 5
Your list has gotten smaller. And now assess whether you will be hired for this job. Indeed, there are excellent positions in this sheet, but knowledge is needed to obtain them. Do you have the necessary luggage to do these things? If not, are you ready to study for several years in order to achieve this work? For example, an astronaut is a profession that requires training. And not all will fly into space, many will remain on earth, engage in the development of technology, flight planning. To get into such a circle, you need to get an education, earn respect. And you will have to start from the lowest position in order to become someone important in the structure only after many years. Are you ready to wait so long, to grow up the career ladder? Think about how long and how much effort it takes to get the job. And cross out the unsuitable ones.
Step 6
Now you have only 2-3 positions in front of you, and maybe less, which can really become a vocation. Now it is better to communicate with people who are engaged in this work in order to learn everything about it from the inside. Find such people through acquaintances, meet and ask about the main disadvantages of this calling. And if they do not scare you, feel free to tread this path.
