Useful but only meant for guidance.
Finding something you are passionate about.
3. Do you agree with the text when it says “The
secret to a good career is finding something that
you are passionate about” Give your reasons.
I don't agree with the idea. For example, a person may be passionate about singing, but lack the talent for it or the ability to turn it into a career. It might be better to find something that he or she is good at and can be successful at, and pursue it instead, as that way he or she can at least earn an income. People can still pursue their passions as hobbies.
Find your really passionate career.
