Have you always had a pretty clear idea of what you want to do in the future？The following article helps you plan for careers(职业).
Explore(探索)your interests
Students may change their minds several times，
perhaps even after they enter society，so many
middle school students don’t yet know what they want to do.Focusing on(聚焦于)just one job in middle school isn’t necessary.But looking into the kinds of careers you might like can help you succeed.
Learn about yourself
Knowing what you enjoy is the most important step in exploring careers.If you don’t know what you want to do，you should ask yourself what you like to learn about.It’s important to think about what you like to do，because work will finally be a big part of your life.
Discover possible careers
Once you’ve thought about the subjects，the next step is to look for the careers.Those careers can put your interests to use.If you love sports，for example，you might consider a career as a PE teacher or a soccer coach.If you like English，a career as an English teacher or a tour guide might be a good choice.
Do your research
After discovering possible jobs，you’ll want to learn more about them.Talking directly to workers on the phone，by e-mail，or through online discussion can help you get information about what they do.Even meeting with them in person is helpful.First-hand information is necessary for you to find out if you’ll really like a career.
