Ten Myths About Choosing a Career
From About.com
This article from About.com focuses on the myths that many people have about choosing a career. It starts by asking the question "Do you think you know how to choose a career? Many people think they know the right way to go about picking an occupation, but they often wind up in careers that are unsatisfying." It dispels some of the most common myths, such as "Choosing a career is simple" to "I can't make a living from my hobby." The author provides this as well as resources to help you make an informed decision in choosing your career.

 

Inspiration for You

"Whatever we learn has a purpose and whatever we do affects everything and everyone else, if even in the tiniest way. Why, when a housefly flaps his wings, a breeze goes round the world; when a speck of dust falls to the ground, the entire planet weighs a little more; and when you stamp your foot, the earth moves slightly off its course. Whenever you laugh, gladness spreads like the ripples in a pond; and whenever you're sad, no one anywhere can be really happy. And it's much the same thing with knowledge, for whenever you learn something new, the whole world becomes that much richer."

Norton Juster, The Phantom Tollbooth

"To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing."

Elbert Hubbard
