Life is unexpected. There's multiple roads and sometimes you just don't know where you will end up. For example, in the past I was crazy about Japan and wanted to go study and live there but somehow I ended up going to Malaysia. Anyways I want to focus on the topic of career for this. Should people just stick with one career in their life or should they go through multiple?
Personally, I don't see anything wrong with either. Some people know what they want to do and what they want to be and they are happy with that career. For example, I have seen people love children and teaching so they become teachers for elementary school ages. They are happy staying as a teacher until they retire. On the other hand, some people don't like a certain job or want to explore different jobs to figure out what they like. For me, my first job was at a grocery store. Honestly, I didn't really like the job but it was a job to get money. I looked at Mark, the manager of the grocery store, and thought to myself is that going to be me in the future. It took me two and half years to realize that. After the realization, I decided it would be better for me to go back and study first. After studying and trying different types of jobs, I think a career path I want to go down is being a content creator. I want to mainly focus on web3 gaming but for my blog here on Hive I can go with a lot of different topics like music, food and life.
There are definitely advantages and disadvantages between focusing one or going through multiple careers. If a person sticks with one, usually they are the "senior" and "more experiences" as if a person changes to a different career, it's likely they will start back at the bottom. Sticking with one career also leaves stability where as changing career might not be stable in terms of financials. There are many more reasons and in the end it's up to the person to choose which is right for them. There is no right or wrong in having one single career or having multiple careers. I believe that if a person loves what they are doing and gets paid for it, that's the most ideal scenario.
Personally for me, I prefer the multiple careers in life. Although I'm working on being a successful content creator, I don't think that's the end game for me. I also want to try to start some businesses or communities in the future and that would evolve into a different career something higher. I think as we go through life there has to be a sense of progression so being able to change careers can help with this individual growth as sticking to a single career will eventually cap out on the development as the ceiling can only be so high.
Currently, I'm a Wayfinder in the Wayfinder community as a platform where I can grow as a gamer and content creator thanks to the founder, Spike.
