EMBRACE THE IDEA OF HAVING MULTIPLE CAREERS
Don't be afraid to Dream Big and explore life beyond your comfort zone. Embrace the journey of having multiple careers and make the most of each opportunity. An adage says Knowledge is power. We should Keep learning, learn how to grow and multiple, and explore different careers because it offers different opportunities, challenges, and also experiences.
Sticking to one career in my country can be frustrating, even Dangote who is a wealthy man doesn't stick to one business, he has Dangote cement, he has a refinery, he produces spaghetti, sugar, salt, and so on, we know that he makes billions of money from cement but this man never limit himself to that alone, he has multiple choices and that is what makes him what he is today.
Having multiple careers is never a crime especially when we look at how the economy of the country is inflating every day, we can never depend on one source of income, think of how to pay house rent, buying of foodstuffs, and pay for school fees, we do not have to limit ourselves to one career that can not be a good source of income.
I have a brother who studied Agric-economics in school, after he graduated he proceeded to another university to study statistics, we all blamed him for wasting his time but we never knew he was planning big for himself, after he graduated from studying statistics, he ventured into farming and he has poultry, Now he is working with one finance company in the city using his statistics knowledge for this, and his poultry business is doing fine as well.
One has to be vibrant and calculative in this world, everyone is leaving that stagnant life, even being on hive is another side work, creating content is never something easy but one has to be free from poverty, unless your children will question you later.
As for me, I studied geology at the university after searching for jobs for months I decided to have a skill I chose make-up, I learned makeup which I am good at, learning make-up alone or having my studio can not give me the life I want, we all know that make-up jobs are seasonal, it is not something that will be giving me money all the time, so I decided to have another side job.
Also, I can cook, I make snacks and partner with people who sell provisions in my neighborhood and I will give them their percentage, I also cook for people who do not have time to do that and get my cool cash, it is another way of making money which I do not have to depend on anyone for this, also I have children that I tutor as home lesson teacher, their parents pay me monthly and this is so interesting to do, it is just two hours of lecture from Monday to Saturday and the rest is history.
My friends do call me jack of all trades but that is what it should be, not staying for a month without being able to account for #100,000 in your account or not being able to feed well just because you only depend on one career that will pay at the end of the month and family needs are already awaiting.
If most of us think about our family responsibilities then we will know that one career isn't a goal, not that you won't have time to rest because most of these careers are not something that can shift you off your toes, some can even be online jobs, learn how to manage your time it is what matter most, since I have decided not to work under anybody, I have time to refresh and think for myself, I have time to make decisions and carry it out, not be afraid of one boss that will shout at me and I will be frightened.
Having multiple careers depends on your choice but in my opinion, I would say it is the best choice to have.
It has lots of advantages over disadvantages, the only barrier I see in having multiple careers is stress, it can be stressful and at times you can feel like relaxing but your job demands extra time, you have no choice but to do but it is good to have multiple careers in my opinion.
This is my entry for today's episode of hivelearners community prompt of #hl-w118e3 which the topic is MULTIPLE CAREER OR JUST ONE

I truly love to explore and Dangote is a real role model for a multi choice of career. Learning about his lifestyle can help one to manage multiple Career really well.
Your brother has time and energy o, imagine going back to the university after completing one degree, in this Nigeria? Can never be me 😅 maybe I will consider doing that if it's a school abroad, not after all that shege I saw in Naija university
Going for multiple career or just one is an individual decision. What led Mr A might not be what led Mr B. If what we earn can't sustain us, then there is no to dive into other sources in order not to get indebted.
Even a well paid medical doctor can still want to explore farming not for the money now but just for the experience.
Of a truth, sticking to one job in the current economy of this Nigeria can be very frustrating my dear. Exploring various side hutsle is exciting for me fah.
You are right, one should not only depend on just single career but rather have multiple careers.
Spot on my !Lady
Fear is the greatest hindrance for so many people. When people overcome their fears they are able to try new things.

It's always good to have plan B and C and in this case, alternative source of income via multiple career choices. It is very very advisable because the economy isn't smiling. It will also help one to know which career best suits them.
