To Choose A Right Career
The right career choice will lead you
to muchgreater heights in termsof
happiness and success….. Mind It!!

2. Introduction
 Choosing a career is one of the most important decisions you will make
in life. It's about so much more than deciding what you will do to make
a living.
 To start with, think about the amount of time we spend at work. We are
on the job approximately 71% of every year. Over our lifetimes, this
comes to roughly 31½ years out of the 45 years most of us spend
working, from the beginning of our careers until retirement.
 The importance of selecting a career with which we are satisfied cannot
be overemphasized.

3. Why It Is So Important?
 If you want to stay happy, then the selection of the right career is imperative.
In case, you land yourself up in the wrong job, then you will be wasting half
your energy in hating the job and that would do no good for your career or
your life.
 You will be stuck in a wrong place, doing something boring and at the end it
will not only affect your professional life, but your personal life will also be
hampered due to this.
 So, you need to be smart when you are taking the decision about your career.
You will have to look into different aspects of the job and then decide,
whether it will be suitable for you in the long run or not.

4. Importance of Choosing Right Career:
• The right career choice will lead you to much greater heights in terms of happiness and
success. Now, when the company will allow you the personal space and also let you
enjoy the personal interest, then the workspace will not suffocate you but would prefer
to stay even if it is a low paying job. This is because you will be happy with the way
things are going for you. This is what the right career choice is all about.
• You must feel happy in whatever you do and also be satisfied with your contribution in
the workplace. Most of us are on the lookout for careers that will help us enhance the
skills that we have and also help us in learning new skills as we grow in our job. So, the
right career is not only about a paycheck, instead it is more than that.
• If you are in the right career, then you will face challenges that will provide you the
platform to make all the difference and also support the employer in developing the
business. Playing an important role in the office is much more satisfying than a
handsome paycheck where you don’t contribute much.
