SEVEN SIMPLE STEPS WHICH EVERY STUDENT MUST FOLLOW BEFORE CHOOSING CAREER

In a person’s life, one of the most important turning points is when he or she has to pursue his or her career in a specific field. At that time, he or she want advises and discusses with the people about his career around him so that he can successfully pursue his or her career without any failure. It’s a fortune for some people who get the right guidance from their elders who have already gone through this stage, but those people who have no one to guide in a professional way get confused. At that time, they needed some once hand who can guide and tell them professional ups and downs of different fields. Many people recommend that just go with your dream career and other recommend that pursue in the field where it has a scope. So what to do and how to select the right field for yourself. Either goes with the flow of society or either goes with your dream career without caring about its scope. Here are some simple steps which every student should follow before actually dive into any field. It is necessary because many people regret after completing the degree that this is not what I really like. So it is better to concern about your career before actually dive into that field.

1: Ask yourself that what you really like?

First of all, ask yourself that what I seriously like, either I want to become a doctor, an engineer, a lawyer or anything else, just finds out, and it is necessary because if you don’t like something and you pursue in that career than obviously you will not work with your heart and chances of failure increases and at the end you will feel depressed. So ask yourself, what I really like. But remember, the field you like from its outer glance may you dislike when you dive into it. This is not the only criteria, but you have to ask some more questions from yourself.

2: Where do you see yourself in the future?

The most important point is that, where do you see yourself in the future? Either the field you like will help you to reach towards your goal or not, find it out. You must have to define your clear goals so that you can choose the field which will help you to reach your goal. Remember that your goal should be realistic and achievable.

3: Is there any scope in the field you liked?

It is obvious that if someone is going for higher studies, so he has a plan to get a good job or start a business and earn some substantial amount of money, so he can live a happy life. So it is necessary to find out, whether the field you like having any scope or not; or if you can start your own business or not.

4: Take advice from a professional:

Another most important point that asks the people who are currently in that field, ask them about professional ups and downs of that field and hardships you have to face in professional life, because it happens that you choose the field you like and after completing the degree you find that you cannot bear the hardship of that field. So it is better to ask earlier rather than regretting.

5: Visit the site or office where you will be after completing the degree:

If it is possible to visit the office or site of work where you will have to go after completing the degree you like; than must visit it. So you can experience the real professional environment of your field. Discuss with professionals about the scope and take advises from them. It will be very helpful for you in deciding whether to select that field or not.

6: Do you really like the field that you like before all above steps?

After all above steps, again ask yourself that, do you really like the field or not? Because before all above steps, you like the field from its outer glance, but after these steps, you know that field in detail, and if still you like that field than don’t think further, just pursue your career in that field without wasting your time and hope for the best for your future.

7: Don’t listen to people who have no interest in your life:

The most important point is that, don’t listen to people who have no interest in your life. People who are not professional cannot give you the right advice. You should take advice from people who really care for you and who have knowledge of that field. If you take advice from people who have no knowledge and concern for your life than definitely it can lead towards major failure in life.

At the end, I would like to advise the student that you have enough potential that you can do anything, just believe in yourself. Some student destroys their future because of some major mistake in choosing their career, but I can assure you that if you follow the above steps than Inshallah, you will not be regretful after completing your degree.
