精彩范文
In the past two years of my college life, I have never ceased to think what kind of
work I shall take up upon graduation. Although my ideas are not consistent, I have
now decided to start a business of my own as my lifelong career.
A variety of factors have led me to make this decision over other more lucrative
ones. To begin with, running my own business means freedom and independence. As
a person having my own business, I am free to use my own ideas and make my own
decisions, a privilege not everyone can have, even those with highly-paid positions.
More importantly, I like starting my own business in that it offers a certain peace of
mind. No more rushing to catch a morning bus, no more anxiety to please a boss, no
more worries about your paycheck which is steady, if not handsome.
Nothing, not even a big salary, can equal for the satisfaction of being your own
boss and a gentle peace of life.
