What does the word career mean to you? To me, it is a roller coaster journey during which we find opportunities, progress, and growth in life. The journey involves learning objectives, work, and other personal and professional aspects.
A promising career is one where you enjoy most (if not all) of your daily work. You see your personal, professional, and financial growth and gradually define what success means to you.
A lousy career is just the opposite. It may pay your bills, but you need more work satisfaction, and measuring your progress and growth becomes hard.
Several factors define a career: promising versus lousy, good versus bad, and successful versus failed. A few of them we can not control – but, we can avoid some career mistakes to build a better career path.
