About Me and My Calling
(…continuation from Home page)
I am also thinking about the protean career, a relatively new concept in which individuals are self-directed and driven internally by their values. There are two other new concepts – the ‘boundaryless career’ and ‘career recycling.’ Nowadays, on average, an individual goes through 12 different careers.
Identifying one’s self-concept is more important than anything else in career decision-making. Self-concept is the subjective and objective views of the self. I managed to identify my self-concept at the higher secondary level, shrugging off the external world’s feedback and switching from science to humanities. After that, I studied English to become a journalist. A job matching the self-concept ensures satisfaction and success. It was Donal Super until this point.
