Did you ever experience the phase of career confusion either as an undergraduate or fresh graduate? If yes, how did you resolve it?

Yes, I did. I wanted to become a lecturer. It was one of my reasons for graduating with one of the best CGPA at the department, if not the best. I had a 4.47. My dream of lecturing shattered when I couldn’t get a Job but I promised myself that I would lecture in a different way and I am doing that by helping many people find their path. I resolved this confusion by reading books. Instead of choosing instant wealth, I choose the opportunity for advancement.

Career may not come in a linear path, you may have to do many different things to figure it out. I volunteered, worked in the factory, facilitated leadership lectures online and a whole lot before I felt that spark. You will feel it when it comes.

In this post, I shared from my experience some reasons why you shouldn't panic when confused about a career path. Truthfully, a large percent of undergraduates and fresh graduates have a difficult time choosing a career path and I think it is perfectly normal. I won’t encourage anyone to bite him/herself over choosing a career. When I graduated and it became a tussle starting a career journey, I had different individuals say to me “Girl, whatever you can do passionately for long hours without worrying about money is your career.” I got drowned in worrying over what this “thing” could be. Well, I don’t totally agree with the statement.
