🎓Labs to Laptop🎓 -My Career Switch 👇 ( My Journey of Self-Discovery): Science Stream to Digital Marketing...... In high school, I was confused about choosing between the science and commerce streams.  I chose science because it was the "safe" option. I thought that I would have diverse options to choose for the future….[Opted for science to overcome my fear of mathematics]🙃 But as I progressed through my studies, I realized that I didn't have a passion for engineering. Unlike my friends who had clear paths ahead, I had no Clarity and guidance. But I knew that I had to make a change. I couldn't spend the next four years studying something I didn't enjoy. I chose a Bachelor of Business Administration Specializing in "Digital Marketing". 🤷♂️ I had no clue about digital marketing. 🌐 Terms like SEO, PPC, and CTR sounded like a foreign language. 📚 I immersed myself in learning. 📝Studied from scratch. ☑️ Attended different webinars and masterclasses..... 🌟 Took inspiration from industry leaders and success stories 🚀 Now, I have a clear vision and goals. 🧐Switching streams felt like a big risk, but it turned out to be the" Best decision" I ever made!!! ✅Key takeaways: 📌Don't be afraid to "take risks". It's better to switch now than to be stuck in a career you don't enjoy for the rest of your life. 📌 Don't be afraid to "experiment", The best way to learn, is by doing. Try different things and see what works best for you. 📌Pursue your "passion". Don't choose a career path just because it's what others expect of you. Do what you love and you'll be more likely to succeed. 📌Attend Industry Events and gain insights from professionals by attending guest lectures and industry events. 💡 The journey persists—forever learning, and growing........ 👉Now I want to hear from you, Share your thoughts or experiences if you've made a shift. Let's inspire each other in the comments! #linkedincreators #careergoals #learning #digitalamarketing

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but being ‘new’ at something doesn’t have to be as scary as it's made out to be!😳 Whether you’re a student, newly graduated, or starting a new role, you are more capable than you give yourself credit for💪 My biggest struggles as someone jumping into marketing 2 years ago from a completely different industry (and without any prior experience) were: 📚 Lack of Industry Knowledge 📉 Low Confidence 😓 Feeling Overwhelmed / ‘behind’ where I felt I should be Anyone that’s currently a beginner in their field or is looking to make a career jump, and is struggling with the same things, my advice would be: 🔎 Complete a few online courses & actively seek out knowledge (also learn from your peers!) 🏋🏼 Get involved in anything & everything that you can work-wise (you’ll learn and gain confidence as you go) ✅ Keep track of positive feedback & remind yourself of the progress you’ve made weekly or even daily! Who else made the jump to marketing from a completely unrelated industry? Let me know in the comments as I’m nosy🧐 #marketingindustry #careeradvice #careerchange

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO HAVE JUST ONE PASSION. I HAVE MULTIPLE ONES, AND I CAN PLAY COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ROLES. I usually say I am the best salesperson in marketing or the best marketeer in sales. I have the same passion for strategy as I have for execution. In a world that often emphasizes specialization, it's essential to recognize the power of diverse interests. Having multiple passions can open doors you never knew existed and provide a unique perspective that can set you apart. 1. **Creative Cross-Pollination:** When you explore different passions, you can find unexpected connections between them. 2. **Adaptability:** In a rapidly changing world, being versatile and adaptable is a valuable skill. Your varied interests can make you more resilient in the face of change. 3. **Passion-Driven Learning:** Pursuing what you love keeps your curiosity alive. Learning becomes a joy rather than a chore, leading to continuous personal growth. 4. **Networking Opportunities:** Each passion can introduce you to new communities and networks. 5. **Problem-Solving Skills:** Combining knowledge from different domains often leads to creative problem-solving. Don’t limit yourself to just one passion. Your ability to see things from multiple angles can be a game-changer. #Diversity #innovation #marketing #sales
