The initial decision to be made, is the end goal you have in mind. Many people wish to chase a dream, become rich and successful and have chosen the career they intend on pursuing. Maybe the role you desire isn’t a big money maker, but you definitely know what you want to do. The question for this group of people is, do you know how to achieve this end goal?
Many, many people have no idea what role is right for them, but they do know they’re in it for the money. They’re the ambitious types, but haven’t settled on anything just yet.
For many others, the aim is to simply support themselves/a family. Big responsibilities aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, and there are many jobs which offer a living minus the take-home kind of stuff.

For those who want the money, but don’t know how…
If you know you want to be rich and successful, but aren’t sure what career is right for you, this is where you should start. Ask yourself the following questions.
1. What do you enjoy? What are you good at?
2. What qualifications / experience do you have?
3. Do you want to work for yourself, or for someone else?
4. What am I willing to do what it takes to get there?
For those who simply want to earn a living.
