Why people have several careers

Nowadays it is known that people develop several careers or ways to earn money over the years. People do that because they want to adapt to the changing times and technology or they want to be flexible and to find jobs easily. But there is another important reason why people develop several careers: they want to fallow their passions and hobbies. There's no wonder that the idea of having a single career is becoming an old fashioned one.

We live in a modern world and we are facing changing times. Throughout the middle of the twentieth century the technology has changed in a dramatic way. For example when the computer developed and it was introduced in all the aspects of business life, people like my mother had to learn how to use it for keeping their jobs. If the people want to keep a job or to find a good job they have to be up to date with the changing technology.

Another reason why people develop several careers is because they want to be flexible and to find jobs easily. Nowadays the job market is very diverse. Due to changing times there were created many new job positions. In order to apply for those positions people need qualifications. That's why the further education process is something that may continue throughout one's life.

People nowadays want to do a job that fit them. They have passions and hobbies. The challenging thing is that there is the possibility to earn money using your hobbies and passions. For example, John - a friend of mine is working in a hospital. But he has a passion. He likes very much photography. He attended photography classes and gained extra qualifications. Also he bought a professional camera, software and other things he uses for his photos. At present he is a professional photographer and he earns extra money. In his free time he works as a photographer.

We saw that people develop several careers because they have to adapt to the changing times or technologies, because they want to find jobs easily and because they have passions and hobbies they want to follow. That's why the new fashion is to have several careers and ways to earn money.
