New Career?
-
If you could turn back time and embark on a new career, what would you choose to be and why?
-
I'm starting my new career in 2 weeks time...
What should I do?
How to get rich in the fastest possible time?
I don't have a toy gun so I cannot rob a bank... -
i dunno..
thing is, if i think about it like that, the "what ifs" would probably drive me nuts
but methinks, life is what you make of it and heck.. to me, it sure as heck isn't what you do at work
they don't call it "work" for nothing

My wise ex-colleague once told me in her very own words...
"If you cannot get to do what you love, you can love what you do! For me, it's to make what I do, fun. When it's fun, I will like doing it. Then and only then, can I get out of bed and come to work!"
I think I must take this kind of approach too...
Have no regrets 'cos life is too short to look back... -

I guess if full-time then you may need a longer time since you're still repaying your loan...

Anyway, nothing stays for long in today's working society.. even within the same company, you can get swapped around different departments...
And I guess nowadays job hopping is very common... You could always go back to have lunch with ur ex-colleagues... right? -

My dream job would be to be a pilot. Have always loved flying. Why didn't I embark on this? Cos of one MAJOR hiccup... shortsightedness!! But I still enjoy what I do now...
My short term goal in the near future is to pursue some sort of grad dip in Marketing/Management cos I think that'll help me greatly in the future (who knows, next time I may set up a bookshop & then you all can come & buy books from me... heheh... *dreaming big* :p
