A breakdown of my results


My survey was based on confidence within our profession. Self assurance and belief in our ability to succeed. My results were very surprising which has caused me to doubt my opinions but the answers have encouraged me to explore this topic even more.

Most people who answered my survey were professional performers. 57.1% said they only ‘sometimes’ enjoyed there  job whilst only 42.9% said ‘yes they love there job. I predicted this result as I feel our job is very hard as you are constantly fighting to be in work. The next answer proved that as only half of the people who answered are in work.

This answer wasn’t a shocker but did make me feel a little sad as 50% of us feel we are constantly struggling for money. So not only do we have to worry about weight, technique, face, performance etc but we have to fret about financial issues to.

I asked the question “do you feel you are the best you can be at your chosen career?” not one person said yes. I wondered if people were just being modest or did they generally feel they were not the best they could be. Is that down to training or motivation?

I asked “If you had the choice (at present) to change your career would you?” it was refreshing to know that 85.7 said no they wouldn’t.
