Everyone has dreams about what they want to do with their lives, and everyone's dreams are different; but there's something you should know about them.

Choosing what career field you are going into can seem like an easy choice, but sometimes it isn't. There are many things to consider when you are deciding what you are going to do for the rest of your life. There are also many ways to go about figuring out what you are wanting to do.

Life isn't always about money and it shouldn't be the determining factor of what you decide to do, but you do have to choose something that will allow you to pay your bills. Enjoying what you do is always important. You shouldn't choose a career that you hate but make well. You should also consider what the prospects are for getting a job after you graduate as well. Some career fields are constantly hiring and you will be able to get a job quickly, while others rarely hire and it may be months before you find employment. Where you can work is also something to consider. What town you want to live in and whether you want to work indoors or outdoors are things to think about.

You should always talk to people in that career field to get an idea if that is something you would like to do. They will help you get an idea if you will like it and if you like what you hear you can pursue it. You should also look through the programs that colleges you are considering offer. You may discover something you did not know about.

Choosing a career field is a big decision and you should do plenty of research. consider all of the factors and also make sure that you look around. You never know what you're going to find!

Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues.
