Career vs. Job

Career vs. Job
Both the terms are often used to mean the same but there is a difference between having a job and having a career.
A job by definition is a compensated position of normal employment but career means building on experience and advancing job skills and knowledge. It can take years of hard work to build a career.
One of my favourite quotes that keep me motivated was said by Mike Wallace: “If you don’t wake up in the morning excited to pick up where you left your work yesterday, you haven’t found your calling yet.”
Following points shows the difference between a job and career:-
·         Job is short term but career is long term.
·         Job has low career growth but career has a professional growth.
·         Doing job is to collect Money whereas pursue career is to collect Experience
·          Monday is tiring for job holders but it is Energetic for career holders.
·         In job, everyone looking for a new job but in career everyone looking to move up the ladder.
A person usually holds several jobs in their career. It is usually easier to change jobs in the same field of work that define ones career. However, switching careers is more complicated and may require the person to start at the bottom of the ladder in the new career.
Regardless, if you are currently working a job or building a career, you have to enjoy what you do
Find the job or career that you enjoy. Both can be equally rewarding depending on your personal situation and feelings. Find the work you enjoy. To some, a job can be tiresome, routine and not motivating, but to others it can be rewarding, educational and fun. The same goes for a career.
Remember that not everyone who has a career is satisfied, but it what’s you put into it that can make all the difference.
