Waitressing

Some people may not think of waitressing as a career, but rather a job that you do while looking for your ideal career. However, many waitresses make a good living at what they do, if they are good at it.

If you make a lot of money in tips on a regular basis you just might call waitressing a career too. This is a great career choice for people that love to serve others and enjoy working with a great variety of people.

Journalist

If you like to be up and moving a lot and going from place to place, a career as a journalist or photojournalist could be perfect for you. Working for a local newspaper you’ll have a chance to attend local events, follow local sports and even be right there when things happen in local government.

If you get a job with a national newspaper or magazine you’ll have the chance to travel all over the world. Many photojournalists get into their jobs through the Army or other military specialities, which is another active career choice as well.

Fitness Instructor

Probably the most active of all is the career of a fitness instructor. You’ll be up on your feet teaching people how to get healthy and happy. By teaching a fitness class you’ll also never need to sign up for another on yourself.

There are numerous choices when it comes to teaching fitness. You can do something more laid back, like yoga, or something even more intense, like Zumba. The sky really is the limit. Plus, you won’t need to worry about work getting in the way of a workout anymore.

These are just a few of the many choices. Nurses, doctors and teachers also have quite active careers. Not only will you be doing something good for others, but you’ll be keeping yourself fit and getting paid for it!
