Khayr Posted December 3, 2003 Salaamz, just doing some research and wanted to ask this question. Can you list what comes first to you in order of priority (greatest to least) in terms of goals/things that you want to do ??? These are the choices: 1. Marriage 2. Education 3. Children 4. Career What can't you do without? and what can u compromise to get something else? Just trying to gather some research, inshallah. Also Can you list your age group. e.g. 14-17 18-20 21-24 25-30 30+ Fi Amanallah Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuNsHyNe Posted December 3, 2003 Well what if you've achieved some of them, so they're no longer your priority? How do you prioritise then?! :confused: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faheema. Posted December 3, 2003 Originally posted by SuNsHyNe: Well what if you've achieved some of them, so they're no longer your priority? How do you prioritise then?! :confused: Well, you prioritize what's left. For example if you already got an Education and Career under your belt. Then, in logical order you would have Marriage Children then your age range 21-24 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
underdog Posted December 3, 2003 What's your definition of a "CAREER"? (not a trick question) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miriam1 Posted December 3, 2003 ^^ Good question. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captivating_SouL Posted December 3, 2003 Career: A chosen profession or occupation which one specifies in. Ex: Doctor, Phamarmacist, Teacher etc. Which mostly requires getting higher education to be more knowledgable at that chosen field. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
underdog Posted December 3, 2003 oh, I see. So it's not just any job you can land after finishing school. I was always under the impression that it would take about 5 to 10 yrs of hard work and dedication you can truly be settled into a career. my math may be off but, if I add that to the 4-8 years of school and the average age of 20, some of you may be looking to get married at age 35-40. is this accurate?
