“That is interesting David”, Robert Sir said, “Ruati, did you ever think about these things? Try to know yourself better by thinking about such things on your own, or asking friends or adults who know you well. This will help you in the future to think about what careers you might be good at. As David has said, if you like caring for people, are systematic and strong, then these qualities will help you in a career as a physiotherapist or a nurse or a doctor. As to how to know about different careers, come to me some time, I will tell you what I know and also share some websites where there is more information. You should also talk to people you know and ask them to tell you about their jobs.”

“Thank you so much Robert Sir”, I said, thinking that I should find out more about this physiotherapy thing, and start finding out more about different careers. So far, I had only thought about studying for exams, perhaps I needed to start thinking about studying for a career
