Meditation: Career Direction : 19 Oct 2016

 What is my ideal career?

- working 4 days per week, up to 12 hours per day (8 is preferred)?

- or setting my own schedule, but still being able to stay busy, 4 days per week...

- work tasks do not follow me home, usually

- earning enough money, to:

= meet my standard bills,

= set aside for retirement,

= and still grow my savings each month...

- staying active, at work, most of the time

- has some element of physical exercise?

- makes use of my knowledge of mathematics, and/or problem-solving skills

- possibly has me writing and/or creating

- engages with other people, as a regular part of the job

- encourages others' growth, instead of feeding their addictions

So, is this where I go grab that STRONG career assessment, and post the top ten results, to be scrutinized?

Yes, I think I shall do that...:

So, here's my top five career areas:

1. Science

2. Writing and Mass Communication

3. Mathematics

4. Research

5. Visual Arts & Design

Next, here are my top ten occupations:

1. Technical Writer

2. Computer Programmer

3. Librarian

4. Psychologist

5. Science Teacher

6. Editor

7. Optometrist

8. Sociologist

9. Arts/Entertainment Manager

10. Computer Systems Analyst

Background: This all comes out of the Strong Interest Inventory Profile with College Profile; where I answered about 150 questions about my like or dislike of common work tasks. There's more results, but I certainly agree with most of the recommended careers and career areas.
