Question Posted Wednesday August 17 2011, 11:23 pm
Hi,
I am 21 years old and I am looking for advice on careers that would fit my personality and interests. I guess the only way to go about this is to tell you about myself :)
I'm a person who loves to learn and understand things and how they came about whether it be a genre of music, a political group ,structures of organizations, or behavior/relationships. Anything
mostly, you name it. I also love to think and create things from scratch whether it be a baked good, a drawing, or just a unique idea that I can somehow bring to life.
I love working with people and ideas, where I can use my abilities to analyze and weigh pros and cons of a particular situation or scenario to realize an idea or goal. I enjoy taking action and envisioning and strategizing as well as conversing with others. I consider myself to be easy going/easy to work with and understanding of others. I enjoy working with diverse people who come from all walks of life. I have a natural bent for project oriented work where I can work within a team to have a greater impact while simultaneously still be allowed to be uniquely me. I am a high energy type of person, and to be honest, I thrive off of some form of chaos/intensity. I have a knack for observing and memorizing people, scenarios, names, and things of the like. I am also pretty good at making information connect from a variety of subjects. I want to experience and explore different cultures and populations and share my experiences and knowledge with others in hopes of them gaining something from it. Overall, I just want to give hope and inspiration to the average person :)
Not knowing your educational background makes recommending a career somewhat harder. With the proper educational background; project engineering, sales engineering, sales in general and anything to do with major construction.
To experience different cultures and not be involved in major construction work a career on container or cruise ships would offer a good and interesting way to experience different cultures.

A teacher works with a team (school) but her individuality shines in her specific class. It just depends if you like kids or if you want to teach adults or guide teens and be their role model. Teachers are well loved and shape minds to make the world better and that is your influence. good luck! :) and with the school year schedule you can still do a lot with your extra time!
