A profession is a social characteristic of a person, indicating that he belongs to a group of people engaged in a certain type of activity. Her choice takes an important place in a person's life. Consider what mistakes should be avoided and how to choose the right profession

Step 1
All existing mistakes that arise in the process of choosing a type of activity can be divided into three main groups: ignorance of oneself, ignorance of the variety of professions and the rules for their choice.
Step 2
Get to know yourself first. To do this, it is worth studying in detail your physical fitness, identifying interests and inclinations for something, assessing abilities, knowledge and skills. Your suitability for it depends on how your qualities will meet the requirements for the profession. But it is more manifested in the process of activity.
Step 3
Secondly, study the information about what professions exist in general, what working conditions and tools are available, the goals of the activity, what requirements are imposed on a person's abilities, whether there are medical indications and what.
Step 4
It should be borne in mind that, depending on the subject of labor, they are divided into five types: man - nature, man - technology, man - man, man - sign systems, man - artistic image. Using such a classification, you can immediately determine what is close to you, suits and likes, and what does not.
Step 5
Three classes of professions are distinguished depending on the goals of labor. The first is aimed at recognizing, checking and evaluating any phenomena. The second has to do with transforming something. The third aims to invent, invent and design something new.
Step 6
By taking advantage of these classifications, it is possible to reduce the number of suitable occupations. Then find out the conditions and requirements for work, evaluate the ways and opportunities for obtaining a specialty, relevance and prospects. As a result, you will receive a list of specialists in various activities with a set of characteristics and requirements. Compare them to your personality.
Step 7
You can get the necessary information from the media, the Internet or specialized literature. You can also seek advice from professional consultants - based on special tests and personal conversations, they will help you navigate the choice of your future profession.
Step 8
For the correct choice of profession, consider some points. Don't assume that the choices you make are for life. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. If you realize that you still made the wrong choice, you can always change your occupation; the main thing is to want. Avoid prejudice. There is no unworthy and indecent profession. All of them are useful and necessary for society.
Step 9
Don't be influenced by family and friends. Choose an activity you like. Work should be enjoyable and bring not only money, but also emotional satisfaction.
Step 10
You should not try to transfer your attitude towards a person to the profession itself. If you don't like him, it does not mean at all that the work he has chosen is bad. Evaluate the type of activity objectively, based on all its features and your capabilities.
