As our freshman year of college creeps closer, I can't help but think if I am making the right choices for my future. What if at age 30, I do not have the same interests as I did when I was 17 and 18? Will I still be able to find something that I am truly passionate about doing everyday?
Well, according to www.themuse.com/advice, we should not be afraid of choosing the wrong career path. It is okay to change your major, if the end result involves a career that you are passionate about. But, in order for us to find our profession, we must experience different things so that we are able to identify what we would and would not like to do.
The best thing that is recommended, is to deeply research any career that you are interested in. Often times, we are not well aware of the responsibilities that these career paths take. If we are well informed, it can prevent us from choosing a profession that is not best fit for us. Ruling out these options, will only make those that we truly care about, stand out.
All in all, "it will not be easy to identify what will satisfy you without first pinpointing the qualities you know will be incompatible with yours," but in the end, as long as we find something we truly care to do for the rest of our lives, all the previous decisions will be worth it.

This related to my topic a bit and one of my websites also said that there would be no right or wrong path you can take but overtime you can find out what you like and don't like and it might end up as your career.
ReplyDeleteI for one always think about whether or not I will still be interested in my career in the future. Reading this post definitely gave me a little more knowledge on the steps I should take in order to choose the right career/major.
