Find Your Passion

It’s my third year of college and it’s starting to get to that point where I am stressing out about what I want to do with my life, where I want to go and everything else that branches off of those thoughts. How can society expect us to know what we want to do for the rest of our life at ages 18-22?

I hardly even know what I want to wear tomorrow or what I want to eat for lunch.

But whether we like it or not, we have to sit down and think about what we want to do or what we want to study. If you’re in college, like me, you’ll understand how it can be stressful because you want to make sure that you are getting all of your right classes and trying to discover what you want to do with that degree once you graduate.

If you’re having trouble figuring out what you want to do with your life, just think about it like this…

….you have to get up every day and do that job.

Once you graduate, you have your degree, you start your career and then you will be waking up [at whatever time] and will be doing that for however many days a week.

So choose wisely my friends.

Also, I know that a lot of students try to go along with picking a major that will give them a great financial future. But, sometimes, those students get halfway through their college career and realize they hate it. Then they’ve wasted all of that time and have no idea what they want to do.

Don’t get greedy. Money can be nice, but if you end up hating your major or career after school because you wanted to make a lot of money, you’ll be sorry.

Basically what I’m trying to say is that you need to be careful when you’re going into college and trying to decide what you want to study. It’s tempting to go for the majors that make a lot of money, but when you really get into the harder courses, you may end up hating it if you are not passionate for it.

Sometimes it’s better to go with what you are passionate for and not what will bring you the biggest paycheck.

In the end money isn’t what’s most important, it’s whatever makes you the happy.

“Money is numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end.”
