Interest

We have heard many stories of people who are doing what they do today simply because they started of with that particular job when they were young and refuse to take the risk to change their career after a period of time, even though finally they found out what really caught their interest.

Doing what you are interested does not guarantees a success in your career, but it does motivates you to work on it. That is because job satisfaction is contributed by many factors such as nature of work, wages, colleagues, environment, and etc.

Take some time to discover what you enjoy doing the most and explore what kind of jobs are associate with the interest gives you a clue of what could possibly be your future career.

Always remember that your interest will change from time to time for many reasons, you might want to revisit that again some time in the future.
