Future Career?

Recently I decided that it was time for me to make the change in my life and go back to school. The process of actually getting into school is not all that hard and even being there is not hard at all either. As for what you are there for during that time.

I feel that is a whole different subject.

Most people tend to go off to college out of high school and they have that general idea of what they really want to do for the rest of their life. Then they realize that maybe that isn't such a great idea because you can't make money at it or there is just no need for that job. People in college change their major as much as you change a new born.

The problem that I am running into right now is that I am talented at a few things. I know that I could be really good at them and all of them I would not mind doing as my career for the rest of my life.

I am very talented when it comes to computers. I know just about everything there is to know when it comes to computers and I am defnitely good at building them, upgrading any computer, and programming. I am also on the other side of the computer when it comes to web design and graphics. I can do that just as well and if not better to tell you the truth.

I have always really wanted to open up my own computer shop. I feel that people pay way too much for computer repair right now and people also pay too much out of pocket for computers that they might buy from Best Buy or OfficeMax. I would love to be able to offer repair service and also offer the ability for us to build your custom PC at a discounted price since it is much cheaper.

I also would love to be able to help local businesses in the area with websites. That is the biggest way that you can get your company out to anyone right now. Nobody really reads the paper anymore, less and less people are starting to listen to the radio, and not everyone really has cable TV.

When it comes to internet, I will just say that I think it something that people can't live without. People have it in their homes, on their phones, in their vehicles, and just all over the place.

I know that starting up a business in the computer field would be a long way away right now, but it is something that I think about from time to time.

The other thing that I am really good at is going to be hockey. I know goaltending like nobody else and although I would love to teach that to young players. I would much rather be the guy who goes out and grabs those who could be the best of all-time with the right coaching.

That means I would love to be a scout for any league or age group.

At the time that I want to be a scout I would not mind being a goaltending coach or even maybe going into the office of things and being a general manager or assistant general manager. On top of all that stuff I would not mind doing broadcasting.

My brother feels that broadcast journalism or just journalism in general would be best for me since I want to get into sports. I feel that would be great, but once again it is harder and harder to write for a newspaper since nobody is reading them these days. Although most of the stories are being presented more on the team website than anywhere else these days.

I guess I have some thinking to do on what it is that I want to do for the rest of my life. Who knows? Maybe I can do both of these things and fall back on either if something was to go wrong.

For those that may have some ideas or thoughts, please feel free to comment and post them on here.
