Most people pick a trade based on what they hear pays well.
That's usually a mistake.
- Your body - some trades punish your joints more than others.
- Your long-term goals - skilled hand, side work, foreman, contractor, developer, politics and education.
- Your lifestyle - travel, family, seasonal work.
If your body, lifestyle, and goals don't align with the trade, burnout is almost guaranteed. If you're unsure which trade fits you, post your situation and I'll help you think it through.
