People choose careers for many different reasons.  Some find the process easy while others struggle to work out what they would like to do after school.

While at school, students do better in courses that they enjoy and this fact doesn’t change outside of school.   Research suggests that the happiest employees are those that are doing something that they enjoy doing.
