23 Career Quotes To Keep You Going In The Right Direction

Career

In a world where you can choose to be anything, what would be your perfect career? Is it the same path you are on right now or is it more of a dream right now?

Well, we all have careers we dream of having since childhood. Sometimes we outgrow these careers as time goes by and we change our minds as we become wiser with age.

Other times life decides to hand us completely different careers than we could have thought of in our wildest dreams. The thing about a career is that it is more fulfilling if we like what we do.

You could be paid millions of dollars and have the best boss or colleagues in the whole world, but still have a part of you that remains unfulfilled. We don't always end up in jobs we like.

Sometimes the job you have is the only one you could get at the time you got it. You could even be working in a family business because you have no other option. Or maybe you chose your job because it pays well and gets your bills settled.

Your career can determine the state of your mental health. If you are not happy, feel underpaid, or overwhelmed, then it could be time for a career change.

Try to get into something that makes you feel better about your life. After all, you will spend a good amount of your lifetime in your job. If you keep working a job you don't like, then you will spend a good amount of your life unhappy.

Choose your career wisely and look at everything at stake carefully before picking a job. Know your priorities and decide on what you are ready to compromise on.

Here is a curated collection of career quotes that is not only thought-provoking and inspiring. Read along!

I believed I was where I was supposed to be of my career in the space program. When I was a student, my mentor told me I’d make a good research mathematician. I said, ‘What is that?’ and he told me I’d have to find out for myself. At NASA, I happened to be at the right place at the right time. When you put bright people in a room and they had something to do, they worked on it until they got it done. But honestly, it was never work to me.

Over the course of my career, I played on many different teams. Some, I liked. Some, I really f**king hated. I'm not mentioning any names, but let's just say Seattle can tongue-kiss my shit hole. The best way to get a new team on your side is to trash the last team you played for. Talk shit about how their fans suck and their women have pancake titties. If that doesn't work, then just like prison, you pick the biggest, baddest dude on the team and you kick him in his f**king teeth.
