Ultimate goal

Step 6: Practice with a native English speaker Are you satisfied in your current career? Why or why not? Why/how did you choose your career? Why did you go into your field? What kind of monthly income is required to provide for a family with children in your country? What do you think is your main purpose in life and how does that show up in your career? What is your unique ability? Do you use that ability in your career? What is your ultimate career goal and why? What factors or people influenced your decision? (parents, economy, your location?) If you were confused about your career direction, where would you seek help? A coach? A mentor? Your parents? Friends? In your opinion, what makes for a satisfying career? What are the necessary ingredients? What are the current trends in your country in terms of career choice? For example, in the US there is a trend toward entrepreneurship for Generation Y- what about your country?

If you won the lottery would you continue in your career or current job? Why or why not? How easy is it to change careers in your country? How important is it to understand yourself and your true skills/unique abilities when you choose a career? How often do people change careers in your country on average? Do you think that the current trend of young people traveling the world before settling into a career is a good thing? Why or why not? What career skills can people learn through travel? What are the risks of taking a few years off to travel before deciding on your career? What advice would you/have you given to your kids about choosing a career? What advice would you give to a younger version of yourself (20 years ago) about choosing a career path? Is it selfish to change careers due to your own lack of career satisfaction if your family will have less money (but still enough to survive)?
