Choosing a job — something you're thinking of doing for the rest of your working life — isn't always easy but necessary. Plans for your future job will have a great influence on your whole life.
Know yourself well.
It's true that things like pay are important, but don't let money lead you in the wrong direction. Firstly, follow your heart and your personality — if you're not very outgoing, don't go for a sales job, even if the pay's good. If you do well in getting along with children, to be a teacher may be a fantastic choice.
Generally speaking, people get more satisfaction out of their jobs if they feel they are doing something valuable for others. It doesn't have to be charity work — it could be a job that helps other people, like being a cleaner. Just imagine what our city would be like without cleaners?
Your first decision isn't forever.
Some lucky people get it right first time — they choose a job, find they love it and stick at it. So remember — you're allowed to change your mind! There's no need to let it worry you for years: maybe you've got three or four possible things you'd like to do, so come to a decision and try one — and if you don't like it, try another one.
The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today. Remember to be responsible for yourself when you are young.
