There are several "head" (i.e. logistical) items that may sway you in one way or another, and it's important to get this information for each career you're considering.
- What are the educational requirements? These may not be hard and fast, or they may be written in stone. For instance, if you want to be a doctor you have to graduate from medical school. However if you want to be a doula or midwife there are many paths you can take. Find out what the bottom line, absolutely must have is for education.
- How much money can you make? This will typically be a range that based on a number of factors. I believe that if we follow the right path to our ideal career we will make as much money as we need. However you need to be realistic in paying attention hourly or salary ranges if you are going to be employed by someone else. Can the top rate support you?
- Is this career primarily for the self-employed or those employed by others? Or both? Some people hate being an employee, while others can't imagine running their own business. Again, being realisitic about how a particular career fits with your preferences will help you make a good choice.
