PERSPECTIVE: Chasing a professional career?

Hey everyone, what's up?

Perspective

Do you have a friend who’s chasing a professional career?

Or maybe a sister or mother who has achieved great success in their work? Do you feel proud of them, or maybe a little jealous? I think it’s always interesting to hear the stories behind career women and how they make it all happen. Today, I want to share my perspective on what it means to be a career woman.

When I was in elementary school, I was always inspired by Western women I saw in movies. They seemed so busy yet confident, with amazing careers and lifestyles. Their voices were respected, and they carried themselves with kindness, intelligence, elegance, and strength. I wanted to be just like them, successful and confident in everything I did. From my very first year at university, I started working hard to improve myself. I knew life wouldn’t be easy, but I was ready to face the challenges. I’ve been through a lot, and I’m clear about what I want from life.

Some people call me ambitious, but honestly, I don’t think so. Working hard doesn’t always mean you’re ambitious, right? For me, I just enjoy the flow of life and put in effort to reach my professional goals. I know many career women are more ambitious than me, they might push themselves even harder. To me, ambition means doing whatever it takes to get what you want. But as I’ve grown older, I’ve realized that being a career woman doesn’t mean being strict or harsh about your plans. It’s just as important to be gentle and understanding with others.

Being a career woman has made me independent and helped me learn how to lead others. I love being productive and making the most of my time. That passion for working hard is what drives me. In the environment I live in, many women are also hardworking and focused on their careers. I’m really proud of them. Even my mother waited until her late thirties to marry because she was busy building her career. Many people I know, including my close friends, are still single in their late twenties, enjoying their lives. I think everything happens for a reason, so maybe I’m also one of those career women who will marry later in life.

Sometimes, I wonder if I love myself a little too much or if I’m just being selfish. I enjoy my alone time and don’t feel that a relationship is urgent for me yet. But I hope one day my future partner will change my mind. Mr. Right, I’m still waiting for you! I know focusing on a career for too long isn’t always healthy, so wish me luck in finding the right balance.

So, that’s my perspective on being a career woman. It’s about hard work, growth, and also learning to be kind, to yourself and others. Thanks for reading!

Warm regards :b
