Career choice: Finding your path.


What is the choice of your career? What are the reasons you chose it? What job do you want straight after college? A decent salary, tolerable work environs, a phone extension - what more can you really expect, being just out of college or university? Do you know that your first job hardly matters? In the postmodern world we live in, people don't graduate to go work for the same company until they retire.

A career is not the same thing as a job rather it's the sum total of your life's experiences, a work in progress that's never quite complete but gains depth and meaning over time. You can make yours richer by following your instincts and letting the journey inspire you. A career path doesn't have to have a straightforward trajectory; it may be more like a maze than a path.
