Finding your place

Everyone has had this thought, if only fleetingly: "Am I in the right place?" We attempt to answer this question by analyzing in particular our professional situation. After all, it's central to our lives life and even our identity.

Most of our training and career paths take into account our environment environment, history and reason. But you still need to have choice of path. When substantial obstacles such as financial and family pressures are added, many people are forced force themselves to take a "reasonable" path.

It's hard to ask the younger generation to already generations to choose their profession in an increasingly uncertain world. The role of guidance counselor becomes essential, but the task is becoming increasingly complex. Nevertheless, they are best placed to help. They have the ability to adapt to the realities they encounter. Some people have multipotential personalities who want everything but to specialize; others will have precise criteria to which they will stubbornly adhere.

To be in the "right place" seems an antiquated idea. Instead, we should be talking about quest for meaning; workers and students alike go on journeys of self-discovery, experiment with different environments and sort out what they like and don't like. At the end of the day, what matters is respect for one's own values.
