My Career Goals

How many of you guys actually set career goals? To be completely honest, I don't. I never gave it a second thought on what I want to do in life. I know very few fortunate people who have scored lucky and found the right career for themselves. But the majority of us don't wake up to our dream job. This blog post is my wake up call! I am going to commit my self to a few career goals:

  1. Land my first official job. 

    This is a quite realistic goal as I am already in the process of applying to various jobs. I even have a few interviews lined up that I am very excited about. Getting my first job will open a lot of opportunities for me and will help me climb up my career ladder.

  2. Graduate in April 2014 from Sheridan College.

    In today's world, I've found that you can never get anywhere without education. I know of many people who have started working straight out of high school and didn't pursue further education. Many of them are stuck in low income, labour jobs that they constantly complain about. Thus, my goal is to graduate in April of 2014 and get my Sheridan College marketing diploma.

  3. Upgrade my diploma to a degree

    Someone once told me that learning is a lifetime process and a day shouldn't go by where you haven't learned something new. Education is very important and I don't ever want to let that go.

  4. Find a job abroad

    I find the idea of working abroad exciting. My dad is a business man who frequently goes out of the country on business trips. He's inspired me to do my own research. Although I still don't know what my dream job is, its definitely nowhere in Canada. I know of so many successful people who work in Dubai and their company provides them great pay, bonuses, air plane tickets, cars, etc. Although this is a long term goal, with my determination and hard work, I'll make it someday!
There you have it- Some of my career oriented goals worth mentioning. Do any of you readers have career goals? Let me know in the comments section below!
