Ask yourself some questions, and figure out what's a best career for you.
1. What are you good at?
2. What interests you?
3. What motivates you and is most important to you?
4. How much money would you realistically like to earn?

It might seems a little weird to put such an article here, but I have to admit it's a life I'm facing in a few month, with the born of my little baby. I know I will have to give up the old life style and jump into a whole new one, which is totally different mixing both excitment and worriment. That's why these tips light me up. Yes, I will take on a new adventure. And luckily I found these tips on internet to help me.
1.Self-sufficiency. This one tip could simplify your life greatly, over time. However, it will make things more complicated in the short term. The idea is to teach your kids to do things for themselves as they get older and more capable. Teaching them to do something themselves instead of just doing it yourself takes time and can be a little frustrating at first, but it will pay off for years to come. My kids, for example, can make themselves breakfast, shower and dress themselves, brush their teeth, and generally get themselves ready in the morning with only minimal prompting from us. They can clean their rooms, wash dishes, sweep, mop, dust, wash the car. The older ones can cook basic dishes and babysit the younger ones. This type of self-sufficiency has saved my wife and me tons of time and trouble over the years.
2.One calendar. If you have more than one kid, you might have a lot of activities going on that you need to track, from school events such as Christmas performances and parent-teacher conferences to extracurricular activities such as soccer practice, dance classes, or Spring concerts. Organize your life with a simple calendar (I use Google Calendar) and enter all activities and appointments on this one calendar, from kids' stuff to your own goings on. When they hand you papers from school, or soccer schedules, immediately enter everything onto the calendar. Then a quick glance at the calendar each day will help you plan your day.

People don't believe how simple it is to accumulate a significant amount of wealth, but it really is quite easy. All you need is a bit of discipline and to know the three steps necessary anyone can take to grow a significant net worth. The steps are:
1. Spend less than you earn. This is THE key to getting rich. Said another way, save a portion of all you make.
To spend less than you earn, you may need to earn more or spend less.
2. Invest your savings regularly in good, solid investments. I like index funds.
3. Do this for a long time, letting the power of time and compounding work for you.
That's it.
Yes, it's that easy. Don't punch me before you give it a try ^_^
