I was lucky to have parents who never pressured me to study one thing or another. My studies were always under my own choice, so if I was right or wrong, the only one responsible was me. And I say luck, because I consider that everyone, when they are of legal age, already "should" know what they like, what they don't, in what profession they imagine and in which they don't.
As for the choosing a careerYou will hear multiple opinions, some being more accurate than others. Some are:
- Study what you like (my opinion).
- Study something have a way out in the future.
- Study a "real career" (very listened to by some people who consider real careers such as engineering, medicine, etc., detracting, for example, more artistic or vocational careers).
- Study what you study do not forget the languages, with them you go everywhere (in part they are right).
Well, I think that you should study what you want because tomorrow no one knows which races will start and which will not. This is known because today in Spain, few are the careers that we could say have a way out ... We are in the midst of a crisis, unemployment is through the roof and the number of people who are going abroad to work are leaving with careers, and with so-called “really ». Therefore, study something that really motivates you, that fulfills you and that satisfies you for the simple reason that it is your life and in it you are going to live. Is it worth it to be in a job that does not fill you only to earn 200 or 300 euros more than you would earn in something that you do like? Is it worth it to be working 6 or 7 hours a day, in a job that you do not like at all, being able to be doing something that does make you grow as a person and that excites you?
Tell me something: would you wake up every morning with more desire to work if you have to go to a place every day where you do something that does not satisfy you? Think about it! Study what you really like and you will have the necessary and required motivation to do your job with more enthusiasm every day.
