Answer 1

As Didosis mentioned, it might be that you are an individual that adapts easily to new situation, and has a very good learning ability which makes new jobs and environments easy to cope with.

Another explanation, which is very common especially amongst young people, is that you haven't yet defined your best abilities or competencies. This may be either because you have multiple qualities that cover a wide range of fields, or because you haven't had the chance to utilize a certain aptitude to the maximum, and actually see your limits.

An aspect you missed out, is your education. If you don't have higher education, or are in the process of completing it, then maybe a normal school wasn't enough to develop and expand certain aspects of your "employee profile", making it more difficult to concentrate on a specific field.

Also, if your previous jobs were, let's say, insurance agent, and then McDonalds worker, it might be more difficult to know where to go from here, than if you tried a specific field, like for example representing tech support for an IT company, and then working as a librarian.

Basically a few easy steps you can follow in choosing a career are:
- educational background: - do you want to continue in the same field, or choose something different? Start a different type of school/university, take special courses to help you identify what you would like;

- skills: - make a mental list of your best qualities. Which of these qualities would you like to expand within a working environment?

- disadvantages: what can you NOT do? What are you bad at? What would you not like doing? This helps eliminating some potential jobs from your list.

- pros and cons: What are the benefits you expect in your professional ascension? Is it economical profit? The chance that you will advance in a higher position? Doing what you like even if that doesn't bring a lot of money? Forming new skills?

Choose a few fields you would like to work in. Then see which ones would use most of your assets. This should limit your options to 3-5 fields you can pick from.

Answer 2

You probably like your jobs because you adapt easily to any life situation. Some people are like that. I am a teacher and I love my work. I do not see myself doing anything else, but I understand you, as my sister is just like you. She adapts easily and can complete any task at hand in due time. It is how her mind is built, I suppose. She is very good at maths, science, but also at practical activities, such as tailoring, she is so precise and hard-working, I love the clothes she makes, using patterns from fashion magazines. I could never do that. So try not to be confused about choosing your job. I think you should "Be the best of whatever you are".Just try to do your best and if you enjoy it, keep up the good work.

Answer 3

It's OK if you often change your jobs because probably you like trying different things and adventures. If you are interested and satisfied with what you are doing that's great.
Write the things that you like most and that make you happy and then your abilities [ what you are good at] and compare them. You can choose your field and concentrate your efforts to be better at this job.
