A person's life largely depends on his profession. Any work activity should evoke respect in society. Be it the profession of a janitor, doctor, astronaut, etc. First of all, a person must realize that work is the most important thing in life. Thanks to labor activity human society does not stand still, it moves forward
E. Hemingway once said: “Every person is born for some kind of work. Everyone who walks the earth has his own responsibilities.”
Already from the student bench, career guidance for schoolchildren begins: meetings with advanced industries, excursions to factories and factories, children's work practice - all this should help children in choosing a future profession.
The duty of teachers and parents is to help the student decide. Someone is passionate about natural subjects, someone likes humanities, it is important to see these inclinations in a child and develop them. If a person chooses a profession according to his desires and abilities, then society usually receives a highly qualified specialist who will continue to develop. Such a person receives satisfaction and pleasure from work; they say about such people: they go to work as if they were on a holiday. Such people are in demand.
Therefore, you need to be extremely careful when choosing a profession. Labor can be physical and mental, but in our time many machines replace physical labor and you need to be able to operate these machines.
Professions can be obtained at colleges and universities. The state gives great opportunities to master a particular profession. It is important to make the right decision. To do this, you need to know what professions are in demand today. We must remember that labor is the source of wealth.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE RIGHT CHOICE OF PROFESSION
Choosing a profession, a job that provides professional growth, material wealth, and public recognition is one of the most important concerns and problems of every person. But it is often solved at the level of intuition, or even under the influence of mood, superficial impressions, parental whim, through trial and error.
The negative consequences of mistakes in choosing a profession are often not taken into account and not calculated. Let us cite the opinion of a famous publicist: “Having taken a job that is not according to your abilities, taking a place that is not yours, it is difficult, and maybe even impossible, to be an honest person in general.” That's right. A mediocre worker, as a rule, is self-confident, prone to lies, laziness, envy, flattery, and sometimes extortion. Thus, he tries to fill the emptiness of his soul and pocket.
The French thinker Saint-Simon wrote that the cause of almost all troubles in society is “failed vocations, violence against inclinations, imposed professions and the resulting displeasures and evil passions.”
The above is true not only in relation to “high” intellectual professions, but also to the simplest, ordinary ones. A mediocre politician, military leader, manager, lawyer, doctor is a real disaster. But there is a lot of trouble and damage from an incompetent plumber, teleworker, turner and baker, whose hands and head are clearly not suitable for the work being performed. Hackwork and marriage not only economically, but also morally impoverish society.
Meanwhile, according to generalized data, 20–30% of workers in various fields activities are out of place, as evidenced by failure to meet production standards, job descriptions, excessive fatigue, fraught with serious illnesses. And 70–80% of workers and specialists are not satisfied with their chosen profession for these and other reasons. The more complex and responsible the work, the more such cases there are.
The problem of choosing a profession has objective origins and grounds. What are they? There are persistent differences between people, as well as between professions. Thus, in terms of the speed of reaction, awareness of information and decision-making, the spread of indicators in a large group of people reaches 3–4 times; Significant - about 1120 - variations in temperament and character were also identified. A certain combination of certain human characteristics explicitly or implicitly gravitates towards specific groups of professions.
Professions, however, are “on their own minds” - everyone, and there are tens of thousands of them, has their own requirements for a person, his own temper, his own calculation. We choose and we are chosen.
By connecting the right person with a profession or position that matches his individual characteristics, we get a big win in increasing productivity and quality of work, reducing injuries, occupational diseases, increasing well-being, income, satisfaction with work and life. The hack-work is receding, there are fewer whiners and swindlers.
These are the effects and potential of choosing the right profession.

- What level of education does the educational institution provide (vocational, specialized secondary, higher)?

The issue of choosing a profession has been relevant for many years. What a person will do in the future will significantly influence financial position, social status, a society with which you will have to intersect and communicate for the rest of your life as a whole. However, before becoming a specialist in a certain industry, you have to go a long way, starting from the very thought of “who to be” and ending with obtaining all the necessary knowledge and experience for work.
Where does choosing a profession begin?
The conversation about the profession begins from childhood. Even young children are asked: “What do you want to become in the future?” Children answer this question in different ways: some say they want to become a doctor, some say they want to become a teacher, boys like pilots, astronauts, and some even answer that they want to become a President. It is worth noting that even the games that children play reflect the interests of children, where they either treat someone, or build something, cook, and so on.
Some people's childhood dreams come true, while others change their minds about this or that type of activity many times. If a child is very passionate about something, he needs to be helped to develop his abilities in this area, prompted and directed in the right direction.
IN modern world Many different professions are emerging. Thanks to computerization, the choice of specializations has increased. It became possible to work not only in the office, but also remotely, for example, at home on a computer via the Internet. To have a clearer understanding of the diversity of professions, you can divide them into certain groups.
Basic classifications of professions
You can distinguish types, groups and departments of professions.
Types of professions are determined by subject of work:
- sign systems;
- nature;
- technique;
- artistic image;
- Human.
The distribution of professions into groups is carried out based on working conditions:
- household microclimate;
- moral responsibility;
- unusualness;
- open air;
- extremeness.
Depending on the means of labor, the following departments of professions are distinguished:
- automatic;
- mechanical;
- manual;
- theoretical;
- functional.
The problem of choosing a profession
The future profession is the main link for the implementation of normal human life. Therefore, it is very important to choose a profession where you can show yourself on the good side and be needed by society. The problem of choice is that this moment exists great amount professions, among which you need to choose only one.
Factors
Factors in choosing a profession are usually distinguished as external and internal. Let's take a closer look at both.
External factors imply the place of the profession in the labor market, wages, opinions and attitudes of others towards this species activities. The prestige of the profession plays a special role. However, this may cause certain difficulties in future employment due to large quantity specialists from the same industry.
Internal factors imply the abilities of the person himself, who is faced with the choice of who to become.
External factors influencing the choice of profession
Demand, which also applies to external factors, characterized by instability. Professions that are in demand today may not be in demand after a certain period of time.
Although there is a special attitude towards wages, one should take into account the fact that the profession itself cannot guarantee high earnings. Here you also need to consider the possibility of career growth. Since, being representatives of the same profession, someone can be in a high position and have good income, and someone, on the contrary, holds a low position and receives a small salary.
It is necessary to evaluate the real opportunity to obtain a profession. Financial situation plays an important role here, since upon admission it is difficult to get into budget form training.
Internal factors influencing the choice of profession
The kind of specialist he will become depends on his character and personal qualities. Don't set the bar higher than your capabilities. You should not plunge headlong into medicine if chemistry and biology were complex and incomprehensible subjects. A good programmer cannot be made from someone who is not familiar with mathematics and computer science. A teacher without creativity, patience and love for children will doom himself to mental illness.
You should do something where you can really apply everything necessary knowledge. Work should be enjoyable and interesting for the employee himself, not only from its material side, but also from its content.
The role of school in choosing a profession
The problem of choosing a profession should be considered at school itself. Here, like nowhere else, the abilities of students are demonstrated, their knowledge is assessed, and the level of communication skills in communication with peers and teachers is monitored.
The class teacher should devote more than one class hour to this topic. Choosing a profession is very difficult for a child, because for now his steps are controlled by parents and teachers. Here, however, it is worth making a decision on your own, because his future life depends on it.
Determining your future profession takes a lot of time. For this purpose, schools conduct special classes for career guidance; they are asked to fill out questionnaires aimed at studying the abilities and preferences of students. Students write an essay on the topic “My future profession.” All this is done in order to help each student in this difficult choice, directing him to the right actions.
“My future profession” is an essay in which the desires and views on this or that activity of a particular child should be described. This is the first step to start a conversation with your child about what he can become, realistically assessing all his qualities, mental abilities and interests. Before this task, the teacher needs to give clear instructions on how to write an essay on the topic “My future profession.” It is important to convey the significance of the topic and explain why it is given for writing.
“My future profession” is an essay for which it is not enough to just give a mark.
The role of parents in choosing a child’s future profession
Parents are people who know their child from the cradle, who saw how he developed, what he liked from childhood. Throughout the entire time, they were present nearby and solved some problems together. They are the best able to characterize their daughter or son and say in which area their child could succeed.
Of course, parents should often talk with their children about their future. The future profession plays a very important role in a person’s life, so it is impossible to leave a child alone with the choice of what to become. Parents should analyze the situation in the world together with their children and decide in advance. This is necessary so that the school can pay due attention to those subjects that will be required for admission in the future. If your financial situation allows, resort to the help of tutors, purchase everything necessary books for studying.
Today, there are a huge number of specialized courses that help children fill knowledge gaps in certain school subjects. Here, things that may not be explained in school are studied more thoroughly. Courses in English- an excellent option for those who need the language in the future. All this, of course, is not free, but if finances allow, it will be a very wise investment.
Most in-demand professions
The future profession must meet the requirements modern society, therefore, when choosing, it is necessary to study the demand for certain specialists. The in-demand professions of the future, or rather some of them, are presented below.
Since production is developing more and more every year, society will need engineers, especially in the chemical and oil industries.
Since it is almost impossible to imagine a modern person without computers, IT specialists will always be in demand.
IN Lately due attention is paid to the environment environment, so workers in this area will always be needed.
Professionals in the field of beauty, health and entertainment are people without whom one cannot imagine the world.
Construction is constantly evolving. It needs both labor force(in other words, in builders) and in architects.
Where to go to study?
After graduating from school, students will experience a new level. This stage can be either admission to colleges, schools, or higher educational institutions. You can enter the first institutions after 9th grade, which means you can go to work earlier and earn money. If you want to get a higher education after college or college, you can work and study part-time at the same time. This path is usually chosen by those who want to quickly become financially independent from their parents, or those who simply need money.
Admission to a higher education institution requires careful preparation, which should begin at least six months before admission. To study on a free form of education, you must successfully pass the entrance exams. Unfortunately, not everyone gets the chance to study for free, while having very good knowledge. When entering a higher education institution, you need to be prepared that you will be offered to study at your own expense. It follows from this that obtaining the coveted diploma will cost a lot of money.

How to choose your profession? You can contact psychologists. Using scientific tests, they will determine a list of professions for a particular person. You can read horoscopes. There they also write a list of professions for each astrological sign. There is some rational grain in this.
You can contact your parents, other close relatives or teachers. They watch the children and note what they like best. But it also happens in life that parents, fearing for their child or not believing in his strength, suggest that he choose the same profession as theirs. And the child, in order not to offend them, agrees with their choice. And he himself dreams of another profession.
You shouldn’t put pressure on a child or cut off the wings of his dream. Let him choose where and with whom he will work. Let him try, even make mistakes. But let it be his choice. So that later you don’t go to work like it’s hard labor, and don’t count the minutes until the end of the working day. Work should bring pleasure so that you want to go to it like a holiday.

Everyone has to choose a profession at some point in their life. Everyone thinks about what they should become in the future, what to do. Recently, this question has not become less relevant, despite the development of mankind, it is still difficult to find high paying job, which will appeal to everyone. And vice versa - sometimes there is good job, but you just can’t take it up because it’s so popular that it will soon become unnecessary.
Usually this question appears in teenagers from 14 to 16 years old, when they don’t know where to go in high school. Parents often come to the rescue - they will tell you where to go and who you are currently studying for. Sometimes they may also give advice regardless of their child's wishes, in which case the person should disobey his parents by giving several arguments.
This decision is very important, because the entire future career depends on this moment of her choice. You should not underestimate your profession or assume that you can change it at any time. A person's work will accompany him for most of his life and is a very important part of his happiness.
Also, material profit is very important, because it will be difficult to even go on vacation when there is not enough money, and vacation is a very important part of work. This much-desired vacation will help restore productivity and pleasure at work.

Working just for money will be quite easy at first, but after a month you may come to the decision that such work is not worth the time spent on it. It would be much better to work for pleasure, then you won’t have to spend a lot of money on vacation.
You should also pay attention to the relevance of the profession. Some types of work are low paid because there are many specialists in that field and there are high demand for employment, but work as such is less than expected.
In conclusion, it is worth saying that the choice of profession, as mentioned above, is a very important part of every person’s life. You should not disdain the time spent deciding what your calling is, where you should apply your skills. After all, knowledge acquired at work is much more applicable to life than theory read in textbooks. A person must decide his own destiny, and not follow the lead of others.
