Career Development

"As little as we were, we all have been captivated by the careers that run our world"

As young as a toddler maybe, we can already see potentials in them. Little by little, one by one they learn something about themselves. Like what things interest them the most? Is it a Lego? A rocketship? A ship? An airplane? Or maybe a stethoscope? Just by seeing how they enjoy things and accomplish such small tasks, we could already tell that this little one has a future in various kinds of field.

"Different paths, with same ending. Success, I shall claim."

We are introduced to so many options for our careers and it may be one of the hardest decisions we have to make in our life. All of us have several factors to consider in choosing the career we’d like whether it be our interests, our talents, our financial situation, our social status, etc.; so much goes into that one decision. However, despite the fact we all choose to pursue different paths in life, we all have the same goal. We all wish to succeed in whatever field it may be and we hope that in the end, we're happy with whatever we're doing. As long as we put in hard work, passion, and determination into our jobs, we can all get to the ending we’re dreaming of.

"Pave your own way, little one."

We reach a certain point in our lives where we are suddenly bombarded with several questions and decisions about our future, specifically our career. It comes out of nowhere and it can get very overwhelming. You may also feel so pressured, especially if everyone around you has set expectations or if your peers already have their lives all planned out. When we are facing this crossroads, we should remember that all of us have different journeys. A career isn't something we can just develop in a snap so, in order to decide which path to pursue, we should explore all the possible options for us out there. We should take risks, hone our talents, and work on our weaknesses. Do not be afraid to fail; failure is always going to be part of the process. Do not be afraid to try again and again because eventually, you will find the right path for you.

"Fun, colorful and inspiring just like what it may seem."

Let’s walk on a flower path. As we grow older we experience the wold step by step. We learn new things, explore, grow and mature. So many roads for our future yet we don’t know the end towards each one. There are situations in life where we have to make decisions. Do we follow societal norms or we follow our hearts? There are moments in life where we don’t exactly what we should choose. Work or love? Why not both? It’s okay to love and work, or to work and to love. Balance is a problem we often face, do we know how to balance? Are we even ready to work to meet someone new? So mang questions fill our heads, so why not just take a leap of faith and see what happens. As we unfold a new journey towards a new world that awaits for us, we ponder on what road should I give my importance to?

"Taking it into a whole new level."

Life goes on whether we want it to or not. We would often wish the world to pause for a second, minute, hour, days, months or even years. Time goes so fast, we often can’t keep track or be able to adjust to new things. We meet new people, new jobs, new environment and even experience a new life. There are moments we fail and moments we suceed. We tend to be afraid to try. We often aren’t ready for the obstacles that we would be encountering, but when will we ever be ready?As we grow, we mature encountering new challenges which await to face us. Life is a rollercoaster, all we need is a bit of courage. Believe and have great faith, to be able to see the end of the road might take just a little bit of pixie dust. So are you ready or not?

So are you ready or not?

"Dedication and Love. Things that makes us want to fight that battle even more."

Everyday is a battle. We fight for our lives, whether it may be physical, emotional or mental. Love, family or ourselves, we usually fight for those reasons. We fight for the people love. We fight to see the smiles of the people thatvwe treasure. Be filled with passion and fight with all our might. Be a soldier, we don’t have to go in wars, nor wear a suit to be a soldier. Be brave like a soldier, use ur words and actions to be like the guns of a soldier. Be the person so your loved ones can be proud of you like how the people salute a soldier. Take a risk and jump to see what happens. Life is a battle, it all depends on each one of us on what our own reasons are. Who are you fighting for?

Always will be in between. Maintaining, enriching, and making this life like a balance

beam.

After years of striving and hardships, one will definitely find its own comfort-zone. Living that career life, with such balance. Ensuring good connections with co-workers. Doing your duties well, while still having find time to redeem yourself. And just giving your all just to stay on top and reaching your goal. Well, then one day you were almost giving up but look at you now. Just being yourself, doing your duties well and living for that goal in your life.

Those teaching became a photocopy machine. And here I am your carbon copy.

Time will come, when we must leave the job we loved the most. But before that, there's an opportunity where in you can guide someone and watch them as they develop their career. With this you could help them in becoming a better employee at the same time ensuring that your beloved position won't just be thrown to someone who is not capable enough.

"The Beginning of The End"

Corpse in dictionary means a dead body, especially of a human being. When I hear this word, I usually think of the end of someone’s life. Retirement was linked to a corpse in the sense that it is the end of something important. It is the end of a career that a person worked for his/her whole life. After maintaining it for years of persistence and good work values, it will come to an end in just days. However, just like how many people view death as an opening to another life, this can be the same to retirement. Other than thinking that it is the end, it can also be viewed as the start of something new. So it is true, retiring is the beginning of an end but somehow it can be a beginning of something else.

It is usually said that career ends in retirement. Is it something to be proud of? To be happy of? It actually depends to the retiree if his career ends in that time. However, due to social statuses, people view retirement differently. In the modern world, as we grow older we will continue to think if what we are working hard today will just end someday. Should we be discouraged by this? Or should we be more encourage by the essence of retiring? More and more questions can come to mind but it will only lead to one: is it death indeed?
