4 I should choose a career from a "Best Careers" list
我應(yīng)該從一個(gè)“最好的職業(yè)”清單上選擇一份工作

Every year, especially during milestone years, i.e. the beginning of a new decade, there are numerous articles and books that list what "the experts" predict will be "hot jobs." It can't hurt to look at those lists to see if any of the careers on it appeal to you, but you shouldn't use the list to dictate your choice. While the predictions are often based on valid data, sometimes things change. Way too often what is hot this year won't be hot a few years from now. In addition, you need to take into account your interests, values, and skills when choosing a career. Just because the outlook for an occupation is good, it doesn't mean that occupation is right for you.
每一年，尤其是在重要的年份，比如，一個(gè)新的十年開始的年份，都會(huì)有很多的文章和書刊登一份清單，上面寫著所謂的專家預(yù)測(cè)的未來熱門職業(yè)。如果你只是看看這份清單上有沒有吸引你的工作，這是無害的，但是你不應(yīng)該讓這份清單左右你的選擇。雖然這些預(yù)測(cè)都是通過大量調(diào)查數(shù)據(jù)得來的，但是世事無常。另外，擇業(yè)時(shí)，還應(yīng)該考慮你的興趣，價(jià)值觀，以及技巧。僅僅因?yàn)橐环莨ぷ鞯那熬笆敲篮玫?，并不代表它適合你。

5 Making a lot of money will make me happy
賺很多錢能夠讓我幸福

While salary is important, it isn't the only factor you should look at when choosing a career. Countless surveys have shown that money doesn't necessarily lead to job satisfaction. For many people enjoying what they do at work is much more important. However, you should consider earnings, among other things, when evaluating an occupation.
雖然薪水很重要，但也不是你在擇業(yè)時(shí)唯一應(yīng)該考慮的因素。數(shù)不盡的調(diào)查顯示薪水與工作滿意度無關(guān)。對(duì)很多人來說，熱愛自己的工作重要多了。然而，在評(píng)估一份職業(yè)的時(shí)候，除了要考慮其他事情外，也不能不考慮薪水。

6 Once I choose a career I'll be stuck in it forever
一旦我選擇了一份工作，我就會(huì)一直做這份工作

Not true. If you are unsatisfied in your career for any reason, you can always change it. You'll be in good company. Many people change careers several times over the course of their lifetimes.
不一定是真的。不管你因?yàn)槿魏卧驅(qū)ψ约旱墓ぷ鞑粷M意，你都可以跳槽。你會(huì)找到好的公司。很多人在一生中跳槽無數(shù)次。

7 If I change careers my skills will go to waste
如果我改行，我的技能就會(huì)浪費(fèi)了

Your skills are yours to keep. You can take them from one job to another. You may not use them in the exact same way, but they won't go to waste.
你的技能是你擁有的。你可以將它們從一份工作帶到另一份工作上。也許使用方式不盡相同，但是它們不會(huì)因此而浪費(fèi)。

8 If my best friend (or sister, uncle, or neighbor) is happy in a particular field, I will be too
如果我最好的朋友（姐姐，叔叔，鄰居）在某個(gè)特定行業(yè)工作很開心，我做相同的工作肯定也會(huì)很開心

Everyone is different and what works for one person won't necessarily work for another, even if that other person is someone with whom you have a lot in common. If someone you know has a career that interests you, look into it, but be aware of the fact that it may not necessarily be a good fit for you.
每個(gè)人都是不同的，對(duì)一個(gè)人適用的對(duì)另一個(gè)人不一定適用，即使那個(gè)人是和你有很多共同點(diǎn)的人。如果你認(rèn)識(shí)的人中有從事你感興趣的工作的，可以看一看，但是要注意它不一定適合你。

9 All I have to do is pick an occupation... Things will fall into place after that
我所要做的就只是選擇一份事業(yè)，在此之后一切事情都解決了

Choosing an career is a great start, but there's a lot more to do after that. A Career Action Plan is a road map that takes you from choosing a career to becoming employed in that occupation to reaching your long-term career goals.
擇業(yè)只是一個(gè)好的開始，之后還有很多事情要做。職業(yè)行動(dòng)計(jì)劃是你從擇業(yè)，到在該職位工作，到實(shí)現(xiàn)你的長(zhǎng)期職業(yè)目標(biāo)的指導(dǎo)路線圖。

10 There's very little I can do to learn about an occupation without actually working in it
如果沒有工作實(shí)踐的話，我能了解該份工作的地方很少

While first hand experience is great, there are other ways to explore an occupation. You can read about it either in print resources or online. You can also interview those working in that field.
親身體驗(yàn)固然重要，但也有其他的方式去探索一份職業(yè)。你可以在書上或網(wǎng)上讀到相關(guān)的資料。你也可以采訪該工作領(lǐng)域的工作人員。
