Who am I? What am I? What is good about me? What about bad? What am I even born for? Can I change the world? And the world me? How do we generally influence each other?
And, actually, when I ask these questions? Of course, at night, before going to bed. Then, when all the work is done and there are no worries, there are no difficult problems in geometry or physics, when I just float on the river of thoughts. Don't you like these rare moments of calm, this line between reality and dream? As a writer would surely say: "The time between today and tomorrow."
There is a small chance that you do not understand what moment of "high" I'm talking about ... Hmm, maybe not worth it ... Everyone has their own time "to think about the meaning of life."
And lately I have begun to notice a strange thing - every day I am more and more afraid of the future. What will it be like? I don't believe that the future can be written in books or that a fortune teller can predict it for you. Yes, of course, both a fortune-teller and a horoscope can guess, but I only need the truth, which I, like all people, am deprived of. Does anyone know for sure, for example, whether he will live to see tomorrow? You can even explain everything more cruelly: no one, no one in the world can protect themselves from a banal fall upside down, which can also lead to death. Can you even imagine now, right now, a mushroom of a nuclear explosion outside the window? But there is a chance...
And from all this, the conclusion is: we cannot predict anything, even the weather forecast - and we have only an approximate one.
But on the other hand, we dutifully believe that each person has his own destiny. Although this is not called purpose. We confidently point a finger at an 8-year-old child and predict him a brilliant career as an artist. Why? Based on what?
Logical explanation? - No, they didn't.
How can this be predicted? Why did you make such a conclusion? Have you been guided by the fact that the child is good at “grimacing” and imitating?
This is not an indicator.
But for these Van, Sing, Natasha, the future is predetermined. But even here there are some reservations: it is predetermined only if the child already in childhood destroys his own opinion, his own "I" with his desires and views.
And these Vanya, Petya and Natasha will definitely not be like this, lying under the starry sky, thinking about their future - they have everything according to the standard - "because it's necessary." And these children are our future? Do you want such a dark and formulaic future? But this is no longer in vogue.
We must choose our own path. Someone will understand what he really likes at the age of 12, and someone only at 30, but that's not even the point!
The fact is that having chosen our path - our place in life, we isolate ourselves there and often stay forever, in this cozy corner of the Universe. What is needed for a fulfilling life? Without what we, in principle, are not able to exist as a species? What, roughly speaking, made a man out of a monkey, huh?
Right. Absolutely right. Work.
It is already as much a by-product of our journey as the same place of residence or, for example, the number of punctures in our earlobe.
This all takes place only if we want it.
The profession should not be your "manager". She does not have power over you, but you over her. Your profession doesn't choose you, you choose it. But from here it already follows that there are no "This is not mine." How can you even know if you like something if you haven't even tried it. Do you blindly trust someone else's opinion again? Is it really more important than your own?
Composition “Choice of profession” (Var 1)
Throughout life, a person often has to choose, whether it is a manufacturer of clothes, a dish for dinner, a book before bed, or extra activities for a child.
Choosing a future profession- one of the most important decisions to be made, because this will largely determine further fate person.
Currently, there are many types of work, each of which requires professional their business, and higher education institutions offer many specialties for training.
Labor market is constantly changing, and the age of technology gives rise to the emergence of new industries and activities. How to choose the most suitable direction from such a huge number of options?
When determining a profession, special attention should be paid to the person's skills and abilities. hobbies It's always nice to combine your favorite pastime with a good income.
So, having the talent of an artist, young people often prefer the work of a designer. A guy or girl who is passionate about cooking is more likely to choose profession cooks. A girl who loves children will connect her life with a preschool or school.
It often happens that children go in the footsteps of parents, so the dynasties of doctors are replenished with one more specialist. The child watches mom or dad, who are in his eyes an undeniable authority, and the type of their activity is so mysterious and necessary for humanity.
In addition, there is a certain convenience in this choice, because relatives with experience in this field can always help in studying in their specialty and give their valuable advice.
Defining your life path, it is worth paying attention to the state of affairs in the country, because in the age of the active introduction of technology into human life, some professions may disappear altogether in a few years.
And in the place of specialists there will be mechanized structures that perform hard work. Therefore, the greatest demand will be used by workers who know how to handle innovations.
The most important thing in choosing a future profession is not to follow anyone's lead, this decision should be independent and well thought out. This factor will become decisive for the course of all future life, and in order to make a choice, it is better to be guided by the words of the wise Confucius: “Choose for yourself work like it, and you'll never have to work a day in your life."
Composition "Choice of profession"
Choosing a future occupation is a responsible and complex process. This decision can determine the entire future fate of a person. There are many difficulties in this. Fate is translated as "to judge." Previously, it was believed that the path of a person is determined from above. But these are all fairy tales. Man is the creator of his own life. Much may depend on his family. But earlier, many believed that it was impossible to change fate, everything had been decided long ago. Such opinions can be found even in our time.
Features of choice
Often children take over the profession from their parents. Even at an early age, they begin to learn, which makes it easier for them to improve skills at a more conscious age. In the modern world, the list of professions is quite long. You can master any occupation you like. At the same time, the labor market is constantly changing. Therefore, parenting professions can be considered obsolete.
New areas of activity
Now the existence of many professions surprise. Take at least a shopper. It is hard to imagine that he could work 30 years ago. Then the people were not able to select their style with the help of professionals. And now it is a sought-after and highly paid occupation.
The evolution of professions can be seen on the example of a PR specialist. He is engaged in the promotion of different brands and interesting personalities. For the world to know about people or some product, you need high-quality advertising. But PR people appeared not so long ago. Previously, people had other needs. But the world is changing and we need to comply with it.
The names of the new professions are quite unusual. So the plasticizer works in the beauty industry. It helps to create compositions for fashion shows.
If we analyze the labor market, it becomes clear that traditional professions remain the most in demand. The list is headed by computer specialists. There is always a need for different kinds of managers. Many vacancies are presented for drivers. The legal profession remains popular. Medical and educational workers will always be needed. Builders, engineers and accountants will also be able to find work.
When choosing a profession, you must be guided not only by your desires, but also look to the future. If we analyze the market, we can conclude that in the future, workers of new technologies and engineers will gain popularity.
Even in the elementary grades, schoolchildren begin to worry about the question: “What will I become when I grow up?” At this age, we can already observe what preferences we have in the type of activity. But then the child still cannot accurately and consciously say what profession he will choose.
Already in high school, a clearer understanding of this problem comes, as a teenager develops personal hobbies, hobbies, whether it is visiting a theater studio, a fine arts group or a music school. There may be an incredible interest in one of the subjects, and a lot of free time will be devoted to it, knowledge will go beyond the school curriculum.
The choice of a profession should be treated with special attention, it depends on whether a person will be passionate about his work and whether he can consider it a matter of his whole life. After all, working without pleasure, looking at the clock every half an hour, the time on which seems to stand still or stretches painfully long, as a result, you can be disappointed in life, realizing that you have devoted yourself to the wrong thing. Work should be enjoyable and done conscientiously, every minute of activity should be done with ease.
When choosing a profession, it is necessary to take into account the character of a person, his mobility, perseverance and type of temperament, because it will be difficult for a too irritable person to cope with the position of a doctor or psychologist, he reacts violently to any stimulus, flashing like a match. Creative minds find it difficult to concentrate when working as an economist or accountant. Where prompt customer service is needed, working with a cash register is not suitable for slow people, they will slow down the entire workflow.
I know a remarkable story about how a person can radically change his life and change the type of activity that does not bring joy. My mother's friend spent eleven years of her life working at a factory. She worked hard and did not receive any moral satisfaction. She performed it, as expected, honestly, but she returned home tired, fell from weakness, and bitterly realized that tomorrow she would have to go there again.
Thoughts to change the place of employment did not even occur to her until the case helped. All her friends always admired culinary dishes during family feasts, calling them masterpieces. And then one day, on one of these holidays, a friend of this woman came not alone, but with her sister, who is the owner of the restaurant. She was amazed that a person who did not receive special education could cook like this, saying that she had never eaten anything tastier than this food in her life.
And it so happened that she was looking for a suitable person for the position of chef, and since she herself was convinced of the professional suitability of her mother's friend, she offered her a job. It took several days to think, then she quit the factory, and agreed to the proposed position.
From that moment on, a white streak began in her life, she began to get up in a good mood, worked enthusiastically, receiving wonderful reviews from customers, and dishes according to her own recipes were included in the menu as the signature dishes of the restaurant. From now on, work began to bring a lot of positive emotions, and this woman walked home without feeling tired.
Work should give inspiration, be able to be creative, and not just be a source of income. There we must rest morally from the turmoil of life and at the same time perform our duties with high quality. So you need to choose a profession with the most serious approach, otherwise you can lose the most valuable thing a person has - time that cannot be returned for any money.
Career guidance: the profession of the future.
“If you successfully choose work and put your whole soul into it, then happiness itself will find you”
K.D. Ushinsky
Who to be? This question is asked by every person at a certain stage of his age. Someone at the age of 5 dreams of becoming an astronaut, someone going to first grade decides to save cats and dogs, and someone only at the end of grade 9 or 11, when the final tests are ahead.
It is really important what to connect your future profession with in order not to make a mistake and understand that this is “my cup of tea”, as the English say “my cup of tea”. So, once and for all, until the very retirement….. Although, in our modern world it is difficult to stay in one place in the constantly changing conditions of the development of the economic market, which means the state needs for workers of certain professions: in demand, less in demand and not in demand.
College or university, hairdresser or engineer, teacher or car mechanic? “All works are good, choose according to taste,” says an old Russian proverb. But to your taste and desire, you also need to add your intellectual abilities, organization in work, responsibility, performance discipline, the ability to work for a team, and, finally, the results of the GIA and the Unified State Examination.
Psychologists say that it is difficult for modern children to decide on plans for the future. Few school graduates know for sure who to be. And most often this choice is determined by the opinion of parents, society or just fashion. Sometimes it brings satisfaction, sometimes disappointment. And this means that you need to delve into the secrets of the profession, the sooner the better.
In fact, the problem of choosing a path after the 9th grade is currently not so simple. Increasingly, less successful students in school remain in grades 10-11, while excellent and good students are storming prestigious colleges. And this has its advantages.
It is easier to enter a college than a university, you do not need to take exams - you just need to submit documents, with the exception of creative schools; receiving a general education, in parallel for 2-3 years you become a certified specialist; there is an opportunity to “try on” the chosen profession, whether it matches your interests; there is an opportunity to enter a university and study under an abbreviated program. College graduates have more chances in the labor market, since the country needs craftsmen, working hands capable of creating, creating a new product, rather than theorists. But many parents consider college education not prestigious, not noticing the brilliance, liveliness in the eyes of the child, talking about car parts or cooking a delicious cake, or the desire to work on a new generation CNC machine, creating parts with their own hands, or maybe sewing a stylish dress for themselves on envy of friends?
At present, with the assertion, it can be said that colleges can compete with universities. The College of Informatics and Electronic Engineering is very popular, where you can acquire specialties that are in demand on the labor market and are quite well paid. These are information security and computer software, automated control systems and others. Medical schools are also gaining popularity. The prestige of the physician is also growing. Yes, and it's great, probably, in the family to have their own doctor, able to come to the rescue at any moment. 
According to sociologists, today only every fifth graduate knows what he wants to become. Four of them choose a higher education institution, no matter how successful they are in their studies. And only one is focused on training in the system of secondary vocational education.
Forecast of staffing needs in St. Petersburg for 2016-17.
The Committee on Labor and Employment of the Population in St. Petersburg made certain forecasts of the demand for certain professions.
“Among specialists with higher education in the forecast period, a high demand is expected for specialists in the field of education, health care, and in the service sector. Among specialists with primary and secondary vocational education, the following will be in greater demand: nurses, physical and engineering technicians, builders and builders, assemblers, builders, finishers, metallurgy, mechanical engineering and metalworking professions, transport professions, chemistry, petrochemistry, production of organic compounds , machine operators for metal, machine tool adjusters in metalworking, mechanics, fitters, fitters, repairmen, welders and gas welders, electricians, electromechanics, electrical equipment specialists.
And now let's ask graduates of grades 9-11 of St. Petersburg schools what they want to work with.
“I want to continue my studies in the 10th grade at a physics and mathematics school, because these subjects are related to computers, and information technology is our future.”
“I would like to choose a humanitarian direction in college, for example, English or another language. The main thing is to do well in subjects that are needed in the future.
“I’m going to the 10th grade, to enter the theater school or, like dad, to the FSB academy. Haven't decided yet."
“I decided to enter the Leningrad State University. Pushkin with a degree in personality psychology. I like predicting people's behavior in different situations."
“I haven’t decided yet, I have to choose the business that brings joy and satisfaction.”
“My parents advise me to choose an engineering profession, but I am weak in mathematics and physics. So I don't know yet."
“I wanted to be a sports commentator from the 8th grade, I love football. My dad says this is not a serious profession and hired me a tutor in mathematics and physics. Now I have almost entered the Polytechnic University, I will be a power engineer. Maybe dad was right.
One gets the impression that the guys are initially aimed at entering a university and know little or have no idea that there are a lot of specialties that are no less interesting and well paid in the field of metallurgy, mechanical engineering, robotics, metalworking, maintenance of electrical equipment, etc.
To do this, it is necessary to carry out explanatory work at school, in the family, create vocational education laboratories, where specialists will conduct testing and be able to identify the inclinations of a teenager. Parents should guide the child to the right choice based on his character, health, temperament, talent, the success of the acquired knowledge and skills, employment prospects after graduation. You need to be able to analyze the need of society in the chosen specialty in 3-6 years.
Here it is also important to say about the development of artificial intelligence, which in 10-15 years can replace the human mind. And then the need for drivers, firefighters, rescuers, employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations and even nurses with children can become a thing of the past.
What kind of profession is the future: demanded or fashionable? The Internet has rapidly burst into our lives, informing about all the new equally important professions with an English accent. PR-manager (public relations), Art-design, Art-director, DJ-dj (disk jockey), HR-manager (personnel manager), Fashion-editor (head of fashion department), blogger, business coach, etc. .d. The diagram shows how widespread the introduction and development of service professions, especially the beauty and health industries, have appeared on the labor market. 
It is difficult to say which profession is important, which is secondary, fashionable or in demand. The choice is yours, dear graduates!

Every person is a social being. Therefore, in order to receive at least some kind of pension in old age, one must work. And choose a profession that brings not only money, but also pleasure. The choice must be approached with all the seriousness of the issue.
Children, associating themselves with adults, “try on” their professions. Girls all around are teachers, doctors, shop assistants. Almost everyone wants to be a model these days. Modern boys no longer want to be astronauts and captains. Now there are other priorities. Everyone wants to be a programmer
lawyers, financiers, bankers. A worthy profession. Recently, the number of young people and even girls who want to connect their lives with law enforcement agencies has increased.
In Soviet times, it was prestigious to work at one enterprise with whole families. This is how labor dynasties arose. Feature films were made about them. It was an honor and prestige to work all my life at one enterprise all my working life. Those people who often changed jobs were called "flyers". Although Americans believe that such people are "stuck" in their development.
How to choose your profession? You can turn to psychologists. With the help of scientific tests, they will determine the list of professions for a particular person. You can read horoscopes. They also write a list of professions for each astrological sign. There is some rational grain in this.
You can contact your parents, other close relatives or teachers. They watch the children, notice what they like best. But it also happens in life that parents, fearing for the child or not believing in his strength, offer him to choose the same profession as theirs. And the child, in order not to offend them, agrees with their choice. And he dreams of another profession.
You should not "pressure" on the child, cut off the wings of his dream. Let him choose where and by whom he will work. Let him try, even make mistakes. But let it be his choice. So that later I would not go to work, as if to hard labor, and not count the minutes until the end of the working day. Work should bring pleasure, so that you want to go to it, like a holiday. From unloved work, people develop somatic diseases.
Option 2
Before all once in a life there is a choice of a trade. Everyone thinks about who he will become in the future, what to do. Recently, this issue has not become less relevant, despite the development of mankind, it is still difficult to find a well-paid job that everyone will like. And vice versa - sometimes there is a good job, but you just won’t take it because it is so popular that it will soon become unnecessary.
Usually this question appears in adolescents from 14 to 16 years old, when they do not know where to go in high school. Parents often come to the rescue - they will tell you where to go, who is currently studying. Sometimes they can also give advice regardless of the wishes of their child, in which case a person should disobey his parents, giving several arguments.
This decision is very important, because the whole future career depends on this moment of her choice. Do not underestimate the profession or assume that it can be changed at any time. A person's work will accompany him for more than half of his life and is a very important part of his happiness.
Also, material profit is very important, because it will be difficult to even go on vacation when there is not enough money, and rest is a very important part of work. This much-desired vacation will help restore productivity and enjoyment at work.
What should you look for when choosing a profession? Important aspects will be the following: salary, vacation schedule, your vocation. Working just for the money will be pretty easy at first, but after a month you can come to the conclusion that such work is not worth the time spent on it. It will be much better to work for pleasure, then you won’t have to spend a lot of money on vacation.
You should also pay attention to the relevance of the profession. Some types of work are low paid because there are many specialists in that field and there is a large demand for employment, and the work itself is less than expected.
In conclusion, it is worth saying that the choice of a profession, as already mentioned above, is a very important part of the life of every person. You should not disdain the time spent to decide what is the vocation, where you should apply your skills. After all, the knowledge acquired at work is much more applicable to life than the theory read in textbooks. A person should decide his own destiny, and not follow the lead of others.
Composition on the topic Choice of profession
How nice it is to remember childhood: walks in the park with parents, trips to the sea, childhood friends and much more. Unfortunately, childhood flies by like one moment and now, you are already a schoolboy who has years of study ahead and the most important choice in life - the choice of profession, here parents, friends, school psychologists with various programs for self-determination, profession ratings come to the rescue, but the most important thing is your own vision of yourself in a particular profession.
The desire to become a specialist in any field is the key not only to a successful career, but also to the psychological comfort of the person himself, as in the morning you go to your favorite job, and not to hard labor. But there are millions of such examples: I went to study for a company, my parents insisted, or there was just a small competition, whatever it was, and now we have eternally dissatisfied, incompetent employees, and it’s good if it’s just a manager, and not a doctor, on which a person’s life depends .
In my opinion, the most important guideline in this difficult task is your own feelings, if you like mathematics and computers, then why go to dentistry, and if you don’t like noisy companies and the child is not very sociable, then is it worth imposing on him work related to everyday communication?
Modern realities are such that now the choice of one's professional activity must be correlated with the labor market. An analysis of the ranking of professions is needed in order to adjust the area of development in a particular area, and in the future to decide on the choice of an institution. Everyone knows that lawyers and economists are not such a popular profession now as they were 10 years ago, engineers, agricultural workers, doctors, teachers are needed, so the decision on choosing a profession must be made based on the data of the labor exchange. If you want to develop in the field of education, then you should look at what specialists are in demand and pay attention to this profession in order to easily find a job in the future.
The choice of a profession is a multifaceted and complex issue, it is impossible to answer in one minute who you want to become, as in childhood. The combination of many factors should determine the future profession, namely: the desire to develop in this profession, the availability of educational institutions that can provide the knowledge and skills necessary for the chosen profession, understanding the essence of the profession and the balance of one's personal and professional qualities, family support is no less important. In any case, no matter what profession a student chooses, the most important thing is that he himself likes what he does.
