A career is a mirror to the life you have lived, and everybody wants it to look as good as possible. To have a stable and fulfilling career, it is most important that one has true passion for the work he/she does. Sincere interest will remove the need for a supervisor or manager to make you fulfill your responsibilities and can hence make you most desirable in the organisation.
You will enjoy every day of your life and an extra hour of work will only mean more fun. You avoid the usual work related menaces like stress and tension, since you are at ease always.
So before looking at what is the salary package or the number of people that are opting for a specific career, first take some time and organize your thoughts. Discover your true likes and passions and choose a career that complements it in the best way.
