The Best Career Advice

Katharine Whitehorn said it best – “the best careers advice to give to the young is ‘Find out what you like doing best and get someone to pay you for doing it’”.

In the meantime, author Meg Jay who writes about The Defining Decade (your 20’s) says your first job isn’t just about earning a paycheck—it’s a chance to develop skills, build professional relationships, and create a reputation that can carry you forward.

It almost seems once you start working, it’s easy to get caught up to keep working, pay the bills, support the family so if you missed the chance to do that one thing you really wanted to do before you got into life’s treadmill, think about a way to fit it in now.

Maybe someone you know might appreciate this message so feel free to pass it along.
