Careers & Philosophy

So I was in a conversation the other day about my personal philosophy. Don't ask me to define it because I have no idea where to begin! Nonetheless, I was asked how my personal philosophy would integrate into my future career? I was stumped. I didn't know how to approach the question, let alone explain my answer (whatever that was)! Therefore, I set out to categorize some philosophies within my desired field and to compare them with what I believed. A tedious task, I've noticed.

Well, this is what I'm asking: are you able to define traits of your personal philosophy and compare it to the philosophy of your future career? In my opinion, thinking about this makes sense if one of our goals in our jobs is to be content with what we do. Also, it may help you localize what exactly you care about in life.

This is just a suggestion; you don't actually have to do it. But if you think about it for a few minutes, you might gain some insight you never knew you had! Thanks, Karyn.
