Go back to your college days
What would you have done differently?
So, I'm a freshman in college right now and have not a clue as to what to get into. I fear I'll get into something, hate it and have wasted a couple years of college because right now I have nothing college related that I love for certain.
I have considered Finance because on my free time I like looking into the stock market, but I'm in it for the wrong reason: money
I want a job I love and look forward to.
If I'm passionate about something it's definetly cars. I have to try not to talk about cars when I'm with friends/family so I don't bore them.
I have considered being a mechanic but have been told countless times I'll get bored of it. There is no place to advance because you are stuck repairing what's already there. My uncle was a mechanic and he said it can get boring. Then again he didn't work on special cars. When I work on cars I find it can be frustrating but maybe that's because I don't have the right tools and knowledge.
So, then I have thought about Journalism. What if I wrote for an auto magazine? Then I'd be doing something I love. But what are the chances I'd get a job as a writer for an auto magazine? There are endless possibilities with writing. If I ever do get sick of cars (doubtful) I can always write about something else. Politics have interested me, though it can be depressing.
Entrepreneurship has also crossed my mind because once again there are no limits. I'm unsure if I'd like dealing with lousy customers though, which is a draw back but who knows. I'd like to be my own boss because whenever I work now I hate when someone else is getting rich off my time.... blah whatever. Shoot some ideas at me, give me a different perspective.
