D Another good way for a person to find out if she will be successful in a new field is to try it out as a part-time job.Being an event planner sounds glamorous,but helping friends with parties or weddings might show her that it's also very stressful.However,if she has the creativity and organization necessary for such a position,she can continue to plan events for friends until she builds up a reputation.Then she can leave her current job to look for a job in event planning knowing that she'll be successful in this area.
