Right career choice matters

We have all come across this dilemma of making the right choice of career fields once in our lives. And it’s really true that if you do your work while pouring your heart into it and when you are happy and passionate about your work, you will surely excel in overcoming your challenges, boosting your productivity and performance. As your happiness depends on the choices that you make, the right career choice matters too. It’s an awful situation when parents compel their children to go for their choice of career field. If there is a person who is a doctor, who is an engineer, or maybe in the most renowned field, that doesn’t mean your child has to adopt that path too. Every person in this world comes with different abilities, different skills, and different sets of minds.

If today, a person who wanted to be a doctor became a soldier or if an inspired cricketer ended up being a doctor, then there wouldn’t be any person who could perform well in his or her field and there might be no other aspirants in the future. Every year, millions of students go through this mental anguish and emotional breakdown just because of their wrong career choices. This needs to be stopped! Every child must have career counselling before going into any field. And everyone should understand that there are no positive and negative outcomes for any field, nor is there scope for any field. “It is you” who develops a scope, and the scope entirely depends upon the performer in that field. And it comes from a person’s own skills and abilities.

So, here are some pointers one should have in mind for selecting a career:

1) Decide on a career based on your personality, talents, and level of self-satisfaction.
2) Refrain from jumping into unsuitable occupations out of a desire for financial gain.
3) Avoid looking at any field’s scope.
4) Don’t let someone else’s career serve as your inspiration; it may be their choice of fulfilment but not yours.
5) Don’t undervalue yourself.
6) Make no decisions based on peer, societal or parents’ pressure.
7) Think about what you really excel at and how much you like doing it.
8) Follow your heart and your Genuine desires.
8) Think everything through before you do it.
10) Be positive, determined, and considerate before making any decisions.

Parents should also be wise enough to accept what their child is passionate about and what career best suits him or her. A child should go for career counselling before entering into any field and think for a while about what they are really passionate about. By doing this, they can save their future by making the right choice and can escape from any future regrets.
