I 've Had A Rush Of Angst Surge

Before starting college it is good to know what you want to major in. Sometimes, a lot of students go into college undecided. It is not good to take too much time contemplating over what you want to major in. People should find their passion to help them decide what career they want to go into. They need to figure out what motivates them to get up every morning to look forward to going to work. The key to success is motivation and dedication. People who want success need to stay focused on all of their work. In order to have all work completed and turned in on time you need to stay positive and focused. Tell yourself you can do it. Do not over think too much. It could cause you to start stressing over school. Do not do your work at the last minute, leave procrastination behind. Procrastinating will also lead you to stress instead of success. No matter what you may be going through do not let anything stop you from succeeding. Do not let an obstacle become a wall,

So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. (56-57)”

When it’s time to starting making solid decisions about enrolling in college, many people have questions about how to choose a college major. Selecting a

To start I plan on going to post secondary school after high school to get my bachelors degree. I plan on majoring in finance and then becoming a CPA. I am still unsure what I want my minor to be but I’m pretty positive it will be in the business field. There were a lot of different things in my life that made me want to take this path. One of which is the financial situations of my parents. After my parents divorce, it came clear to me how important it is to go to college. My dad who went to college and got his degree has found great success. Whereas to my mother who decided to work after college struggled after the divorce to get everything together. She was changing jobs constantly trying to find one that paid more so she could provide

In the future I plan to continue working on my company and my dream is to expand it beyond what I ever thought possible at 12 years old. In my House I have my sister Seville, my mom Susan, two dogs and a cat. My parents are divorced so my dad, David lives in another house with his wife Kattie. At his house we also have two dogs. My favorite subjects are Math & Science, as I seem to be a very logical minded person. I love being able to work with numbers and create experiments. After school I usually teach classes, and starting this next October I will be teaching kids at 5 different schools every day of the week. By the end of 2016, I will have taught over 580 students this year. In my free time I play video games and go out with my friends. I do not really listen to music but I do love to go out and watch movies with either my friends or family. My favorite kinds of movies are comedy and action movies. When I am older I want to travel the world, even though I kind of already do. Every summer we fly out of the country and visit new countries. This summer I took a cruise from Barcelona, Spain all around Europe. Looking at all the different cultures and how people live around the world is something that

Some people view the outside world as a dangerous place full of disparity and misery, others like to embrace that unknown and try to use it as a catalyst for inner growth. I like to see myself as the latter, the individual who lives for the rush of the unknown. I looked down to see what I could only describe as a dream come true. It was a ticket for a six month tour around Asia that would lead to the complete immersion of native culture and tradition- Vietnamese Pho, the mountain folk of Nepal, the Muay Thai martial arts of Thailand, Chinese Architecture and the beaches of Laos are some of the places that we got to experience first-hand. As a participant I was expected to live with 15 other individuals from around the world that I had never

Many students see college as the stepping stone to a successful career and a happy life. Which can be true for some, however, many overlook whether college will actually help them succeed, or if college will truly be right for them. College is expensive and it is not for every kid who graduates high school, although it is marketed that way, high school graduates must think critically about their decision. Should I take some time away from school, to know myself better? What do I intend to do for a career? Am I more interested in educating myself toward things that interests me now and discovering my major as I learn, or do I feel I know what I want to do? And also essential questions like, how much debt will I go into? And can I

Since ninth grade I have had a fervent passion for psychology and I aspire to become a therapist. I originally picked communications as my major because I assumed it would be a cheaper way to a stable income. The minimal amount of schooling required to secure a remunerative job in the field of communications is an associates degree, less than half of that which is needed to become a certified therapist. I let my self doubt, fear of student debt, and my financial status prevent me from pursuing my dream. I now understand that my hesitation is misguided and that I must persevere in order to achieve my goals.

Going back to school has been a big fear of mine for quite some time. After completing my associates degree 11 years ago, I struggled to figure out if my job would be my career. After moving multiple times overseas and back to the United States, I finally worked up the courage to talk to college counselors and determine the best degree for my personal and professional needs.

The first half of my sixties will be spent planning for my retirement. Planning incorporates things such as ensuring I have saved enough money, focusing on spending time with work friends and begin planning trips for my post retirement phase of life. Turning sixty five is when life takes its most dramatic turn. The cyclical nature of life becomes apparent by this stage as I once again plan on transferring from a state of mind that was concerned for the experience of others into being concerned with how I perceive my own life. Returning back to this self-focus includes the idea of travelling again. With my partner by my side, I hope to once again explore as much of the world as I can with my time left. While visiting different countries I hope to embrace cultures and enjoy my life in ways I would have been afraid to do be for. Enjoying life in this phase does not mean extreme sports, but rather tasting new foods and dancing. Hence, I would define the latter part of my sixties as embracing life’s simple

As noted by the National Student Speech Language and Hearing Association (2010),“Deciding to return to school is a huge decision. This decision is even harder when there are children or a family to care for. Finding a balance between maintaining your own academic career and the well being of your family can be tricky (p. 118). The findings in this study confirm the fact that being able to balance work, school life as well as being a single parent was an obstacle for them. Many of the non-residential single parents attending college on campus were found that to be a challenge for them. Despite the fact that many of the participants had been out of school for a while they were eager to return to college for many reasons such as the need to get higher pay, as well as setting an example for their children that they should persist in spite of their

2. Like most Americans, I applied to college during my senior year of high school and began the following September. Though unsure, I declared my major freshman year with hopes to determine a career in the future. Once I graduated, I remained uncertain of my career path and took several years to work and travel. During this time I explored my interests and desires in a job. This has lead me to return to college with more focus and direction in order to pursue my career ambitions. Scenarios similar to mine are common among american students, who may profit from a

As one can perceive, the world is an enormous place, with a plethora of exciting adventures embedded into it. These five popular places are only a few amongst the millions that exist. I hope you are all inspired to witness as many of these wonders as you can. I know not what choice others may make; but as for me, give me a backpack and I shall be on my

However, I need to find a major that fits me before thinking of going to the next step. Just as any other teenager it's unpredicted what will I end up with. So, now I'm in between of two majors that I'm not 100% sure about. I'm in the way of finding a major that I am or will be passionate about. A major that I find myself comfortable with. Feeling comfortable with the major you'll be studying is a huge thing due to it becoming a part of your life. As we get older, making a living will be a crucial part of our lives, It's what we'll be mostly thinking about. So, we need to consider that while searching for the fit major. Also thinking about the future ahead of time to be able to find the perfect

I’ve just entered my senior year of high school. I know that this is a very important year. I have a lot of decisions to make and not much time to make them. These decisions will either make or break my life, and I want to make sure that I make them to the best of my ability because there is no turning back. I need to make sure I definitely want to attend college. The decision is totally up to me. There are many positives and negatives of attending college. Go over them, and then decide. I know myself better then anyone else, and I won’t let anyone else tell me what to do. I will make sure if I am going to attend college that I have something in mind that I will want to do, to succeed in. Choosing a major can be a
