| honestly the most important thing: do good in the spheres you're part of now, where you have power and control to. we aren't all going to make massive change, but together we can get there with multitudes of little changes |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| zrek - I know how scary that can be, and I've been there. I will say you absolutely don't have to commit to your "life's work" right this instant. that's why keeping your experiences varied and your eyes open is so important. the thing you least expect to be what gives you meaning could in fact end up being the thing you really enjoy. and "career" changes can come anytime, anywhere. I also hear what you're saying about society--it's tough out there. but there are good people, who share your values; you just have to dig through the crap to find them, which is of course easier said than done |

| Its the biggest pain in the butt. My boss is very old school and that's the only way we can send records to other clinics |

| Eve - I did think of social work. What positions out there pay a working wage? If I’d be doing it as my main source of living income. |

| Issy - thank you. I needed to hear that. I feel like a lot of my struggles are made worse by the fact I feel trapped in inability to change. Since I have certain financial goals I’d like to hit and all, I think I put myself into this box and finding that balance is scary. And for sure, I have really been focusing on highlighting what I deem success, just finding myself and my peace. I definitely do have that fear of later changing my mind because I’ve felt how scary it is to suddenly lose who you thought you were and have to find it again. |

| I just feel like there’s no job in the world I could make my own. And I know nothing will ever be 100% that way, but i don’t know, with all my beliefs about how society is structured most jobs I find something that’d compromise who I am. For example just selling products or working for a mass production company - I feel like everything is drive by this economic greed and we aren’t getting any closer to a better society. And I just might feel like if I’m contributing to that, or even staying neutral in my work, that I’m just enforcing it. |

| I agree, I wanted to be a Vet only last year, now I'm planning classes for my journey to zoology! My dream is to go to the University of Florida and be a zoologist down there! <3 |

| zrek - I would say look to what you value most in the world, and be willing to give different things a try. you may just do something different for some years before doing the thing you really enjoy, and that's ok. we're all constantly learning, especially about ourselves, and more often than not we don't know until we try, and then we know. --said from someone who's had a pretty decent spread of experiences, and all of them inform where I am now |
| Nightingales Ridge |
| Aw it's okay I'm 27 and still winging it. Just know everything is temporary; whether that's days, months, years. This gift of life is a blessing do the best you can! Ignore people who try to tear you down...YOU deem what is success. Don't be afraid to choose a path because you are worried you may change your mind. Many do! Live my friend |
| Slow Stream Stables |
| I feel bad but I don't think I can help with that one, only being in high school and all <3 |
| Moonlight Equestrian |
| Exactly* and I mean from an educational standpoint. I'm doing a double major and plan on higher education too, just not quite sure which avenue yet |
| Moonlight Equestrian |
| Zrek honestly take your time and don't put too much pressure on yourself! I still don't exaclt know what I want to do, just doing stuff that interests me and learning along the way |
