A Good Salary vs A Career in the sector you love...

[Naida_BR]

Everyone wants a well-paying job and a lot to improve their careers ii am not satisfied with the sector in which I work.  in order to meet the needs of one's family one has to look for a good quality job while doing low paying jobs. I think low paid jobs are a lot of trouble and can't be found at the end of the day. you need to build yourself up in such a way that you can get a good quality job. Usually those who have less skills do this type of job and then come up with a salary increase.

Many times we have seen ourselves having skills that do not apply to the jobs that people offer to us.
This way, we have to choose if we are going to go for a high salary and a job that we do not like or go for a low paid job but in a sector we love.
Another factor is the fact if you have a family. People who have kids would go for the high salary in order to deliver to their children as they are their priority.

Both can bring food to the table. But both choices are very situational. For someone who has a past job that pays a high salary but he doesn't like the environment of his workplace and his colleagues. That can be one factor someone gives up his high paying salary as he can't take his life anymore with it.

While with the job of your passion and you really love it. I've heard a lot of good stories that money followed them after pursuing the things that they love.

I'm okay doing things that I love as long as it's rewarding whether it's small. I just don't want to be choked by doing something I don't like. That's stressful.

I prefer good salary because as a family man all eyes on you, children school fees is there, children will wear clothes, children will eat food,with this i chose good salary than career you love that will not provide school fees, food to the family it can just make people honour you in the company.

I agree with you, working in a sector we love would be very nice but it can't be the ultimate goal. We need to think more about a career with a decent income so we can provide dir our families. I believe in every job we will encounter things we won't like. It's just normal. Which makes it's so much more important to have things outside of work to clear our minds. Balancing work and life is the most important for a long career.

Money matters!!

I would always go for a job that pays well even if I am not happy as I need to pay bills and buy stuff that I like. In the meantime, I would certainly carry on with my search for a job with the same salary range in the field that I love.

In life it is very hard to find a job that you love and pays you good. But, as we all know life is a struggle and we need to overcome those struggles.

If my "lower salary" can buy the things that I like (not really into luxurious things) and pay the bills, then, I would go with the latter.

Life is not easy, it is harder and everyone has to face it but what we are doing is trying to avoid it so we are struggling for our basic needs since we prefer salary over the career.Remember the first step is always harder once we start doing it then we will be the master of it and at some point we will earn more with no tiredness of doing that job.

Yes money really matters in our life but it isn't the most important thing, money is very overrated and honestly life is more than just money. If I were to choose between the two I will choose a job that I like/love even if it only pays me low because money is not a good thing to be our main goal in choosing our career path because if you do and you don't like the job very much you will suffer for the rest of your life, as long as I am earning with the job that I love even if its only a low salary I will still continue on doing it for I won't see it as my job only but as something that I love to do and i will be happy doing my job but if the job I like doesn't earn me money at all or I barely earn from that job it is a different story, with that situation you need to be practical and set aside your dreams but don't forget about it because you will eventually find it after things have settled in your life

Be grateful you still have choices in your work.  In times like these, it is very difficult for me to have options for my job.  Let alone choose the big salary or the one according to your passion.  Getting a job to make ends meet is extremely difficult in this pandemic.

In my opinion, back to your heart.  What makes your heart comfortable.  What's the priority in your heart?  If in your heart, you are comfortable working on your passion, then choose it even though the salary is lower.  If in your heart, having a big salary will fulfill your priority in your heart, for example like me, any job that can generate a lot of money in order to make your family happy even though it's not my passion.  So choose a bigger salary.  As long as it's a priority in your heart, your heart will be comfortable.

Working with a comfortable heart will make you happy.  When you force work according to your passion and have low pay, but your priority is to make your family happy by having lots of money, your heart will not be comfortable even though you are already in your safe zone.

Even if you're out of your safe zone, if your heart feels good.  Then you have to do it !!!  Spirit
