4 risky career choices you do not want to fall victim to

The overwhelming desire or urge to secure a job with sky-high salary lure so many people to pop into any career choice that presents itself.
As a result, many choose the wrong career path that is detrimental to their future. Before delving into any career, there are certain factors that you must consider in order to make the right career choice. Compiled in this discuss are four deadly career choices you will never want to choose if you are in your right senses.
             1.     Non lucrative career: One career choice you do not want to go into is the one that lacks lucrativeness. There are few careers out there which I know will never fall off the line, but still they will only earn you a peanut at the end each month. Everyone wants to live on their dreams (You surely want to drive your dream car and have your own house). This is exactly why you work 24 hours each day. But at the end if those dream of yours fails to come into reality, then life does not worth it. Choosing a career that is not productive will never help you reach your dreams. A factor that will deprive you of reaching your goal is a set back you want out of your way right?— If you hope for a bright and successful future, then I dare you to rule out any career that is not lucrative from your check list. Without doing that, your dream of success is just a fallacy.
            2.     A career declining in the labor market. The soul purpose of any career climber is to secure a lasting job at the end. No one derives pleasure from striving after the wind. Notwithstanding, One out of all those striving after the wind knows that they are doing so. Since the labor market is not stationary, it will be wise for you to consider the present status of the occupation you aspire, in the labor market. This will enable you to avoid choosing a career (occupation) that has declined or will decline in the labor market sometime soon.
          3.     A career not related to your ability: Many people make a career choice not because it is what they can do better nor what they really want, but because it’s what their friends, relatives and the famous people they have heard of are into. The biggest mistake you can make in life is to choose a career that does not relate to your natural talent. Choosing a career is the foundation of life because it determines how your future will be. An adage says: As you make your bed, so will you lie on it. Everyone has natural talents, but discovering and nurturing them is what counts. Choosing your career according to your natural abilities will guarantee you success and satisfaction in future. Doing otherwise will only live your future in jeopardy.
           4.     Choosing a career you do not have passion for. You know what you love, you also know what you will enjoy doing best. Then doing something else will never give you the joy you wish for yourself, you are just cheating on your own self. Consider the experience of a man named Caleb. When he was a boy he had a friend who sailed with him through his nursery and primary education level. On getting to collage his friend joined science department. For the sake of not breaking the bond of friendship he has with his friend Caleb also leaped into science. After their first two years in collage, Caleb’s grade began to drop drastically. But his friend kept improving. One of his school teacher approached him to know why he was no longer doing well in his school activities but he never saw any reason behind his dilemma. The teacher encouraged him to study hard or swap to Art since he is finding it hard to cope in Science. But he objected because he never wanted to part with his friend. Years later Caleb and his friend graduated from collage as science students and went to high school. They both struggled in high school and also graduated as medical Doctors. But something was missing Caleb has never dreamt of becoming a medical doctor… To Cut the long story short, after working in the hospital for some years Caleb decided to quite because he never enjoyed working as a medical doctor, so with the little money he gathered, he opened a hardware shop and that is how a medical doctor ended up as a trader.
Final words: We have wondered over the bitter paths of making a career choice. The four factors discussed in this article must be at the back of your mind as you go about making your choice of career. Also the experience of Caleb has so many lessons for you to consume. I hope you choose a career that will bring you joy and satisfaction in life.
