MY CHOICE. MY FUTURE PROFESSION

First of all... Secondly... I personally think... I'm convinced that... I’d say...

One of the most difficult things in everyone’s life is deciding on the sort of job you want to do. It demands careful consideration. Some people choose their future profession under the influence of ... (their parents, friends, teachers), or because the profession is ... (useful, interesting, creative, fashionable, well-paid).

In the past few years I am interested in ... (teaching, physical training, music, pre-school education ...)

My ambition is ... (to have a highly paid job; to get a quick promotion; to be highly qualified; to be a good specialist..).

It’s necessary to consider all advantages and disadvantages of your future job so as not to regret your decision later. Taking a job one must think over if it is suitable for him.

I think there are two types of people. The first type is people who work for money; another type is people who work for self-realization. I think I won’t earn very much money at first. But I’ll take more training courses. Very soon, I’ll gain experience. If I work hard, I’ll be given several pay rises. Anyway if you have chosen a profession, you must work really hard and systematically.

I believe I will be motivated by work satisfaction and a good salary. I’ll try to find work that involves a lot of foreign travel, because I want to see other countries and meet people.

I’m definitely sure that I want to be a useful person for the society and I want my family to be proud of me. I hope my future profession will be interesting and well-paid.
