How Some Careers Emerge Out of Hobbies and Interests

 Are you stuck in a bit of a career rut? Not sure what your next step on the career ladder should be? The best jobs are the ones you enjoy each day and that’s an idea every parent should pass on to their kids. There are loads of jobs that emerge out of people’s hobbies and personal experiences. Here are some of the best to give you some inspiration, whether it's for you or your children.

Child Carer

Some people are just naturally great with kids. And they might not even realize it until they have a child of their own. It’s the kind of skill that can’t be fully taught. Some people know what to do to get a child to calm down or stop crying, and others, no matter how hard they try, can’t succeed.

There is always a shortage of good child carers too, so if it’s something you think you could be good at, you should think about exploring it as a career.

Cake Maker

So many people make great food for themselves and their families but never think about how they could employ their cooking skills to make a living. But every year there are entrepreneurial people who set up a business and make a success out of it.

Cakes and pastries are particularly profitable, and there is also the option to go into bespoke cake-making. Everyone wants a cake that’s individual and unique for weddings and birthdays, and they’ll pay big money to get it!

Church Pastor

A person’s religion is very personal to them, and it’s something that each person devotes themselves to over a long period of time. Some people feel the urge to take it beyond the personal realm though. For some people spreading the word and preaching is a big part of their faith.

If you feel like a career as a church pastor could be the ideal next step for you, you should consider enrolling in a free bible school. This will help you gain the skills you need to do the job properly and make your dream a reality.

Gardener

If you’ve been tending to your garden for years, picking up first-hand knowledge, and making it look great all year round, you might have the skills to become a professional. There are loads of different career paths to take in gardening too.

You could try your hand at landscape gardening or why not try making money by growing and selling the food you grow? People are very interested in buying organic, homegrown food nowadays. Take advantage of the trend, and make a living for me if you have the skills!

Wedding Planner

After planning their own wedding or the wedding of a friend, a lot of people find out they love it and decide to do it as a job. It’s not an easy job to do. A lot of people find planning a wedding incredibly stressful, so if you enjoy it, definitely think about pursuing it as a career.

Careers don’t have to be boring and dull. The happiest people in life are those that spend every day doing something they enjoy.
