Working in College Setting

  Today I did like to bring to your attention the question,  What do you enjoy studying? While working in College Setting, I meet with students regarding their concern about choosing right major; the path that will lead to a fantastic high paying position in growth industry. There is a hope that one decision, your college major will leave a huge impact on the rest of your life.  Alot of student often shy away from subject area they enjoy due to fear that such coursework will not lead to a job . Each time this happen I feel so disappointed in the approach. As a counselor I always ask students or clients the question, what do you enjoy studying?  The answer received generally,  makes it easy to choose a major or a family of majors. Overtime I discover the incredible pressure to secure employment after graduation. This usually take place, when you are forced to learn a course you have no interest in, you just fulfill all formality, graduate and dump further research on the major course se

They spend their energy torturing themselves on how slow they do things compared to somebody else. And, how can we blame them? After all, we live in a corporate era that glorifies high achievers and doesn't tolerate failure. We've been educated this way since we were kids.
