In my opinion one of the most satisfying intrinsic rewards is to see children learn, grow, and develop. I do not put much value in the extrinsic rewards of a carrier but one reward that has the most bearing on my current thoughts about a career is the work schedule of teachers. Teachers do have more flexibility and personal control over how they use their time. I feel this kind of freedom is important because it allows one to do what they love when they want to do it, so it does not become a chore. I feel strongly that teaching is a calling, not only just a calling but also a very high one.
Teachers are the shapers of our future.
Teachers are called to the field because they have something great to pass on, which will better the future if the children they teach.
