Career Climber

Misconception # 1- A career is a job
You are working on a company and you receive compensation.
With that, you have a job. A job gives you short-term security as
you generate stable income from your work role. However, a career
is a long-term venture that does not necessitates stability and
encourages you to take risks instead. A career is not a job but every
job you have is part of your career.
Misconception# 2- A career is an occupation
An extensive group of work jobs with related characteristics is
referred to as an occupation. This can also be related to your
profession and educational attainment. You can be an accountant,
physician, teacher, engineer – the list is long. When you are well
versed in an occupation, you have the opportunity to achieve a
steady job in an organization. Nevertheless, a career is committed
to develop and build your skills for a lifetime.
Misconception # 3- A medium is a career
A medium is the means in which you express your career message.
Conveying the content of your message takes various forms. It may
be through article-writing, blogging, teaching and training people.
But it is sad to note that instead of focusing on the content of the
message, most are misconstrued that the medium is the career
itself when in fact the message tells it all.
