A career used to be understood as a single that people did to earn a living. However, in the changing world of work, nowadays people have to keep learning and be responsible for building their future. , a career is now considered more than a job. Rather, it is an ongoing process of learning and development of skills and experience. Choosing a career path is hard - you have to consider many things. Firstly, you should consider what you like, what is most important to you, what you are good at and who is there to help you.

You may want to follow an academic route of high school, then college or university. Alternatively, you may opt for vocational training where you learn skills which can be applied directly to a job. Thirdly, you should do your own research to explore possible career paths. For instance, career paths in education include teaching, curriculum development, research, or administration.

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer of the questions. 

In today's fast-paced industry, learning will most likely involve seeking new skills in ways that challenge the norm. Fortunately, lifelong learning online offers a solution, allowing you to save time and money while helping you increase both. Provided you have access to a decent computer and the Internet, the barrier to getting started is probably lower than it ever has been. And with those things in place, it is a matter of finding the content you wish to learn. So, to help others who may be looking to maximize their own learning efforts, I have listed some quick tips below. 

First, set achievable goals. When you start learning, a good idea to set goals about what you want to learn or what you might do with your newly acquired knowledge. It might be landing that new job, building a tangible product, or impressing your current management. The goals may vary in size and complexity, but do revisit these goals throughout your learning process. Within a couple of weeks ask yourself, "Am I getting closer to my goal?" or "Am I learning the skills necessary to reach my goals?" If you are not, then you may need to look elsewhere. 

Second, learn with others. By yourself, learning anything has a high tendency to become frustrating. Try teaming up with friends or colleagues. They can often be your best resource for maintaining motivation while you learn.  

Third, make it a habit. Online habits often include scrolling through social media or watching videos on YouTube. If you have the downtime for such activities, then you could spend that downtime learning something. And why not learn something? If you do, then you will have plenty more to talk about on social media anyway. So, make learning your new online habit by making a commitment to learn something new each day.
