Career Vs JobA job can be considered simply going to work to earn a pay.

A career is the journey that includes all your jobs, experiences, and training.

The real difference between a job and a career is your attitude.

People who want a career are always thinking about their long-term goals. They are thinking about what they can do now to make those goals happen in the future.

Think of it this way: if life were a video game, a job would be just one level. Having a career means that you are committed to playing the game to get better over time and advance to higher levels.
