Hi Yeral,
Great question! I see that you are a student, good to see that you are thinking of your career goal.
If you are already playing sports at a college/high school level, then you would know where you stand and what your chances are to make it to the big leagues. Remember, that very few people reach the professional level in sports.
But, there are a lot of other areas related to sports that may interest you. Here are a few career choices...
You could look at sports writing, sports commentators, sports blogging if you are good in communications/writing. You could also look at getting into the back office of some professional teams where you could learn about the operations of running a professional sports team. Or, there are lots of career options in sports broadcasting with ESPN etc.
Since you are an athletic person, you can also aim for getting into the fitness industry like a trainer, running a gym or a Yoga instructor.
Sports medicine is also a niche area that would involve you helping people out with injuries, physical therapy etc.
If you like any of these careers, you can research into it and then set an appropriate career goal for yourself.
Hope this helps

John’s Answer
It will help if you can ask yourself a few questions please:
What sport do I like best?
What would I most like to do in that sport?
Maybe it's not a case of your setting a career goal . . . maybe the goal will set you. Set you on the path to your dream.

Hi Yeral,
The thought of “Career Goal” crosses the minds of millions.
I suggest:
Find any goals you may have set in the past and assess where you are now. Did you meet those goals? Do they still align with your career path? Looking at your past objectives may help you set your next round of goals.
Ask your family, friends or people you admire what goals they have set and met in past years.
Most importantly think about what you bring to the table. Figuring out what you do well will also help you discern what you should work on.
Hope this helps.
