“I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul”, said a great poet viewing about life, destiny and aspirations. These lines are merely a stone carved heritage for anyone who tries to start a big cause from the scratch. Choosing a career is like choosing a lifetime, as it entirely depends on the daily time spent on a work in your precious livelihood. So there must be lots of considerations from the analytical thoughts and also in contrast the free will from the mind based on one’s own interest and enthusiasm to do something on a prolonged way for happiness and financial satisfactions.

Let’s have a look at some of the major influences for selecting a career in the current scenario.

1. Parents Imposition: Parents enforcing their own dreams on their children forget the individual taste and interest most of the times. Out of ignorance they choose something for their children that is a very wrong way of approaching a career. Parents must allow a free flow of thoughts derived from their children and then later analyze their interest to help them choose right education and career.

2. Social and Peer Pressure: This type of social and contemporary pressure plays a major part in younger generation choosing safe path for their life’s career. They later realize that the path they choose is not their cup of tea and then shifting their fields will be possible for only few of them. Most of the others get bounded financially and familial situations will never allow them to change their careers later in their late twenties or thirties. So choosing a career must be your own interest and mind driven selection and not through observing other people’s path.

3. Money: When a financial conditions of a country is in a downscale freefall, people always tend to choose safe options as their career and life’s destiny. Engineering was one such big phenomenon that happened in India especially after 2000 when the IT giants started to flourish here based on foreign economy and GDP. The mass employment with huge sums of yearly salary packages made people to select professional courses entirely based on big corporate players of the World. It is very clear that this way of choosing a career is not based on individual interest and completely financial supply and demand basis of big corporations.

Here are some logical tips derived from the objective perspective of seeing life as a happy journey and not as an investment to earn money. In that way both the personal satisfaction and financial requirements are met in a balanced condition, flourishing the entire society with positivity and contentment.

1. Individual Interest: Irrespective of the career and the way of living a life individual interest only determines every aspects of human conditions. Till this date the scientific and technical advances are not the result of logical thinking but only creative thinking of a subjective behavior of each and every individual all over the world. So marking the events of our life and choosing the path entirely lies on your own hands.

2. Self-Analysis: Create a list of careers out of your own interest and enthusiasm to do something for your entire life or for some considerable time as you wish. Thoroughly analyze thehe list by researching about the particular career path and also through obtaining guidance from the experts around you. Then choose the right career from all these aspects for the betterment of your life.

3. Practical Analysis: Go to a field trip or a visit to the exact place where your favorite job is on full swing. Observe the nature of work and gather enough information about the career you wished for your life. This will bring great insights in the very early stages of life and allows your mind to freely judge and come to a decision for choosing a particular path of career.
