Selecting a Career

I have begun thinking about possible career paths lately. With changing my academic focus, I have set myself in a position where I have a pretty decent idea of what I might like to do with my life. Most likely, I will either teach, or spend some time as either a professional or organizational (such as school/university) psychologist, and then become a teacher, if this present track ends up being my career track of choice for my life.
