In opinion this book is not for adults who are 30 and above as the author said because this book can help the younger generation to avoid mistakes made by our predecessors. One can easily navigate employments by employing the information provided by the author in this book and make outstanding decisions when it comes to their jobs. And jobs don't have to be energy absolving, thereby leaving us empty but rather we get to enjoy our jobs.


Yes, I agree. Although this book is not aimed specifically towards young people, it does contain lessons for them.

Well this book did put employment in positive, happy-go-lucky light. I especially liked the author’s advice concerning career assessment test. We should not be stuck doing something we do not like.

Navigating Employment... This is one thing this book helped me with. Going through each page, I became more concrete with the career path I wanted to create for myself. I will prefer to work happily and with fulfillment than otherwise.

makayla makhumalo wrote: 09 Jul 2022, 13:06 As a student the most daunting questions have always been:
where do we go after this ?
how do we navigate all of this?
What do i aspire to be ?
Is any of this going to make me happy?
With my background working has never been about happiness , joy in the workplace was not a realistic goal. Working and figuring out what to do with ones career was meant to be a meaningless and painful transaction one had to take part in to keep afloat, having a self employed father and a mother who did her uttermost best to make ends meet some how made things incredibly worse as income had to be something one had to sacrifice absolutely everything for even fundamental things like spending time with family .So with that my dad never spent much time at home nor did my mom ,which lead to misery , neglection and daddy issues .
honestly everything that could have gone wrong went wrong and knowing that one day i would have to be employed and financially stable enough to not only take care of myself but take care of other people as well became this increasingly overwhelming thing .The thought loomed over me for the rest of my life and so i spent most of my time wondering how i would break free from this toxic cycle my parents and previous generations had put us in by not adequately educating themselves and their children on the matters this book tackles .I am glad to have found this book and the newly found sense of direction that came with it.
I remember, back in school, we were told to build a career on what we love. I, however, was more money and prestige-minded. Things haven't turned out as I had envisioned. This book reiterates what I was told back then and, from the reasons given, it is very right. Building a career on what we enjoy doing ensures fulfillment.

Agreed. While it talks of a fulfilling, stress-free golden age, it is all about planning. And the earlier the better. So, it is a good starting point in choosing ones career.

That’s true. Growing up, I’ve had my Mo d set Amon a particular line of study, but life happened. It got me scared if I’m doing the right thing or not. I like how this novel opened my eyes to a lot of possibilities.

I Agree with you. I had that fear too when I was about to graduate. The rate at which senior colleagues I knew where unemployed increased my fear. Perhaps if I had read this book then I would have knew better. This book is a good read for young adults facing the same.

I agree, this book has helped me answer the great questions in my life that have put off. I feel that this book is not just for the older generation but could be applied to any generation since your are never to young to start preparing for your future. After reading this I now know that I need my own personal insurance and I will seriously find a career path that I will enjoy and not just focus on the money aspect of the job. And knowing all this I will be happier.
