you Know the phrase “affected environment"? For sure. Its meaning is that people are forming the same habits, beliefs and ideas that most of the people with whom he communicates regularly.
This applies when choosing a career. If 7 out of 10 people will tell you: “Go to the lawyer” then you will be located(a) that specialty more than the others. You will not notice contradictions and going to school.
And then, suddenly, it turns out that it “absolutely not”, “the soul does not lie to the law”, and indeed somehow boring. But what will you do? I wonder whether the teaching of 5 years suffered(a)? And you have to work with their beliefs, fears and habits, to overcome this “professional dependence” (read previous post).
I Propose to deal with the formation of dependence on other people and learn how to resist their influence. At the same time understand, if you should deal with the matter, which all suggest or, if you already have a profession, to find out whether it is “your”.
Parse the influence of others arguments:
👨👩👧👦 1. “As Parents Said”
the Beliefs and the words mom and dad are formed in our brain first “install” — they are in us from infancy and then very strong. Ways to influence the decisions and actions of people even in adult life,
with lots of experiences and knowledge.
In therapy with clients, I often ask the questions: ‘What have you heard from parents in childhood?”, “How they behaved?”, “What is the priority of each of them to work?”, “And in relations with staff, colleagues?”.
so you answer these questions for yourself, write down the results and analyze — what is installed, is formed in childhood influence or have already influenced your career choices?
🤩 2. “Fashionable, Stylish, Youth”
Very strong at the same time stupid argument: “First, get a normal career, and then make what you want”. But the trouble is that this “normal profession" is constantly changing.
Yesterday all became lawyers, accountants, today it is fashionable to be a Manager, the Manager, and tomorrow people will rush to get a profession in the specialty «bio-ethics”. Stop. Understand that the world is changing and what is fashionable and promising today, tomorrow will be useless.
Better to think about it: What business, work, direction, bring you joy and satisfaction? New faces what specialty do you study enthusiastically? It may not be a profession at all, and some scope-a collection, or a very narrow segment of Internet-projects, creation of travel itineraries or even “photos, zombie”.
💵 3. “But, Pay Good Money”
Well, again... Explain to me how the people who do work for the government for a penny of wages, can know where the well paid? In fact: there are only a few areas in which exactly a lot of money: oil, gas, advertising... and perhaps ‘black market».
Instead of chasing the next “super-profitable-profession”, analyze their strengths, interests, and competence. That's right write out everything on a sheet and a number will indicate the options how to make money. The simplest way to understand it is that you want to do with a good income.

And remember:
Only when a person loves his job, his mind coming up with new ideas, ways to grow your business or a quick rise up the career ladder. Such a person spends more time at work because not feeling fatigue from your favorite things. As a result — an increase in income and expansion.
