Investing in your career 2

In my last post, I asked a question about your level of investment in your career. In this post, I will continue the question by requesting you to compare your investment in your career with investment in other areas. In order to turn the question concrete, let me mention the areas in which we generally invest  most of our time and money. The most common ones are:

- changing cars;
- furnishing cars;
- going out with friends;
- buying branded apparels;
- constantly upgrading our gadgets;
- watching a lot of television;
- decorating and furnishing our homes;
- staying online for a long time; and,
- playing video games all day.

How much and how long do you spend on each listed item above in comparison to your career or even to your studies? What is the most important to you? All the listed items above are made possible by the income we derive from our career. Wouldn't it be wise then to invest more in our career so we can have a bigger income which in turn, will allow us have everything we want? Remember that your result should come from where you spend most of your resources and time and not the other way around. Think about this!
