Careers

Most people who seek employment initially think only of the pay packet - landing something that would give them the salary they desire. On the other hand,career they desire. On the other hand, career orientated individuals think of transforming an assigned desk into a ladder up which they can climb, the job becomes a consuming interest, a major preoccupation, a king of battleground where they can prove their strengths.

A job is plain and simple work. you do it and you get paid for it. A career is a job you work harder at so that it can take you further (up), broaden your world, win you recognition and in turn bring you bigger rewards. The best thing that a career can give you is a sense of accomplishment, the fulfilling realization that you have grown in the job, that your mind has improved vastly and that your understanding of the job has sharpened.

Career minded people never stop learning. There is the widespread notion that those who are always talking about promotion and demanding to be recognized are all serious about Career. Not always. There are those who want to get ahead only because getting ahead usually means more money. They forget the high cost of getting ahead and staying ahead ie Hard Work, Dedication, Long Hours, Parties & Picnics Missed, Complaining Mates, Intrigues & Office Politic. In short, a lot of Hassle. Of course there are the rewards for one's efforts and tangible rewards come in the form of special bonuses, extra privileges and titles.

Almost any job can be turned into a career. It is all a matter of attitude and direction. Either you allow a job to carry you and you get bogged down by it or you carry it towards gratifying heights. if you decided to manipulated work to make it spice up the rest of your life, you get yourself a career. Selling, sailing, bookkeeping, fashion designing, cooking, baking, flower arranging, store management, gardening. You choice can bring you untold joys provided you are determined to follow through a pan of action. Whatever it is, you've got to sweat quite a bit.
