Career Planning: Utilizing The Childrens Experience
How many times we hear children excitement starting with the phrase: when I grow up
, I will become a scientist. Scientists, in such sentence can be replaced by an indefinite number of professions, which are largely determined by such factors as most recent TV shows, parents profession, a magazine picture, or a favorite product. And, yes, I am referring to the Ice-cream man. Looking at such events in retrospective, it can be stated that children are making their first steps in career planning. They try to weigh careers as a matter of benefits, i.e. what will be the reward for being someone. Actually, this approach can be useful in adult life as well, an aspect that many people unfortunately do not recognize.When children declare their intentions of becoming someone, they consider many factors, and accordingly, it is rarely a spontaneous choice. What children will get in reward is an important question according to which they decide their future profession. Similarly, students should ask such question as well, where the answer to such question might provide an insight on professions which are rewarding, and which are not. It is not an implication that there are jobs that are not important; it is just a statement that moderate egoism in such matter is a healthy aspect.
Stating that there are aspects in which adults should follow children should be combined with mentioning issues in which adults already follow children, while certainly they should not. Children do not consider the efforts necessary to do a particular job, perceiving only the bright side of the profession. Similarly, there are many adults who look at a certain profession, omitting the fact that in order to succeed they should do something in return. In that regard, students select a major, fail course, and wait for the magic to happen. The latter is usually followed by a career change after a midlife crisis. Well, if children could share their experience, they probably would have said something like: You should have known this already.
