Can human society ever be sustained and developed in the absence of language? The answer is an obvious NO. Show me a person that does not use language orally, graphically, or symbolically and I will show you a dead person. But even the dead communicate.

Building a career in history is a disturbing thought that most students, parents and guardians very often refuse to allow their minds dwell long on. To many, the mention of history as a course of study induces frown and/or other forms of annoying body expressions. The reason is not far-fetched, to some of them; history is not a visibly lucrative course. The truth however is that very many people know little or nothing about the course. For instance,

                                                   6 Points to consider before making a career choice

Should money be your motivating factor in choosing a career? Well, different people will answer this question in different ways. You may choose to confirm this by carrying out opinion pool. You will be amazed at the varying types of responses you will get both for and against.

But, I dare say money and job satisfaction are not synonymous.

It is true that money is very important, but it is not and should not be the only factor to consider when choosing a career. There are many lucrative and well-paying jobs out there, but they are not necessarily satisfying or fulfilling.

I am not unaware of the desire for job security, pressures from the society and the need to survive the harsh economic condition, which often make us spend our time pursuing a career we do not truly love; but, I strongly believe being happy doing what we are passionate about is far more important than anything else. Of a truth therein lies the secret of personal fulfillment.

In making a fulfilling career choice, it is good to make as much inquiry as possible about the career and the prospects it has, but much more important to match the prospect with our interest, talent and special ability.

If you choose careers that best suit your talents and ability, you will find your job fast becoming a fun, while money naturally comes as a reward for your expertise. The reverse most times will be the case for those who pick their careers sorely for financial gain. They sure will find no job satisfaction, and it may be difficult if not impossible to acquire expertise in a career you do not truly love.

Having said this however, earnings may among other things be considered before picking up a job. The idea does not in any way suggest and should not be misunderstood to mean that money should not be considered at all. There is a balance between the two extreme.
