Different people suits different kind of jobs.

A person ca be successful with his job if it is something that he is interested in and it suits his personality as well. If one is just forced to work on something, then he would not be as much productive as expected.

Hi jricky Yes we should look for a job which suits us mentally ,physically as well as in health wise and in the area which we feel comfortable ,can use our knowledge /skill to excel our skills further which will help us in a long run. All the best

In some point I agree with you. But today, most people are being practical. There are a lot who choosed a job because it gives them more financially even though it is far from what they finished in college. One example is me :). I like to be a doctor but since we can't afford it, I grabbed the opportunity of being a scholar eventhough the course I took is one of the hated course on my list. Sacrifice plays a big role specially if you want to help and support your family. When I graduated, I didn't even pursue what I finished. By the way, I took ECE during college. I ended up in IT world. It is out of my personality and I'm not even a software savvy. My head spins around in programming but still I took the risk and tried my best to get in because I know that one the best paying job is in the IT world. :) I guess you will only have a chance to choose a job that your heart desire and that surely suits your personality when you have finished the struggle in your family and you see that they are all well in life. And you no longer need to worry about other things except yourself. OR... Maybe you will get the chance when you are so fed up with your current job and you suddenly shifts with what you really want in life. Hehehehe...
