Posted November 20, 200816 yr Staff In the Five Elements concept (or simply, in theory), a weak wood can actually increase the weak wood with "water element" and "wood element".Thus strictly from a career perspective, for example, an accountant (metal) in a water element company e.g. Pepsi or Coke is one example. Or another example is that of an accountant by training but one's work scope is "wood specialisation". Wood can range from a CEO, making a company grow, or many other wood careers eg.. co-ordination, training, teaching and many more.Most importantly, we should be very thankful that you have talents to go so far as to go into one of the professions where there is a proper professional body!As an accountant, one can even go into Management area unlike a general Business Degree holder.In Singapore, (not Feng Shui) it is good to be an accountant, as Singapore has a good reputation (or many Singaporeans have a good reputation) for being hired locally or even overseas as a financial controller etc.... And with the vast expansion of business especially in China and India, accountants are needed even till "old age"!Frankly, AVOID two things:1. Auto suggestion2. Self-fullfilling prophecyToo much auto-suggestion i.e. career no good for me... is unhealthy! A degree is merely a stepping stone to what you like to do in the future!Avoid self-fullfilling prophecy as it one things too hard about it, it may just happen!Good Luck in your studies and do your best to make your parents proud of you!
