The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.

career matters

We have a lot of courses related to business administration this semester. My plan is to really apply for a Flight Attendant job, just as what majority of the tourism students want. I am already preparing for it. I may have the height, but I'm having doubts with the other requirements. I'm a bit scared of some other skills that I must have. I'm scared that I might fail on some interviews. I'm scared that I might not have the confidence needed for that moment. I'm just scared that I might not be qualified. Still, I'm lifting all these fears up to God and I'm sure He has set a perfect plan for me.

As we go through different discussions about business administration, I feel that I'm getting more and more interested in management. This started when I was appointed to be one of the leaders in our church. Though there's so much pressure in this task, I really enjoy serving the Lord and I feel like I'm developing some management skills in me. I admit I still have difficulties in being a leader because I really prefer working behind the scenes. Anyway, I even discovered my skills in handling promotions (though it's not really me who's doing the stuff, it's my bestfriend, but I participate a lot). Even if I still have lots of things to learn in this management thing, I believe that it can really help me in the coming years.

I have lots of plans with me for the future. I also have alternative plans, too. If ever I would not be a Flight Attendant, I am planning to work in a Travel Agency. I am also interested in being an Events Organizer. I believe that I have to excel in other things too and not focus with just one thing. Like for this case, if ever I won't be an FA, it is a good thing that I have developed some other skills in me that I can apply in other field. Got my point? (this is just some positive effect on me being a pessimist, thinking that I might not be an FA) See, our course (tourism) has lots to offer. We can also work in a hotel, airline, agency, etc. Well so much for these.

With all of these, I just pray that GOD will give me the perfect job in the future. Two more years to go and I'm in the real world, then. Career Matters. Future Matters. It all depends on how successful we want our future to be and how we pursue it, and of course, how strong our faith is.
