You ...I think you need to be less hard on yourself. You are 25 -- still in the beginning stages of whatever you choose to do. <br /><br />Back over ten years ago when I was 25, my best friend (also 25) had one of those lists that compiled what she would have achieved by the age of 25, 30, 35, and so on. Putting such pressure on yourself is crazy. As someone who has been there and seen what it can do when people don't hit those milestones when they plan/expect to, I would say go with the flow and don't push too hard. It will come..whatever your passion is, it will come. For some, the journey to go through all sorts of different careers is what's meant to be. It's okay to change careers, change plans -- it all adds to making you the person you are now...that's a good thing.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05356965226446396971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-1406888807731038732010-05-04T12:41:04.940-04:002010-05-04T12:41:04.940-04:00Welcome back!

I understand you'...I'm glad you're back. I understand you're feelings. It's a very difficult thing when you realize your "plans" are quite working as ad you had hoped/wanted. Everyone has moments when they realize they've changed their mind or want different things so don't stress, just follow your instincts and work towards your goals. If you enjoy what you're doing, keep it up. If not, explore every option until you find the one that suits you. :)Seattle Kim Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16919391948669326473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-61163395039062975742010-05-03T22:48:18.706-04:002010-05-03T22:48:18.706-04:00I think it's great to try different types of w...I think it's great to try different types of work because not only can you learn different skills but you can narrow down what you enjoy doing and what you do not. My college internships were great experiences but I certainly have been able to steer my career path a certain way due to the trial and error mentality!LittleMissBusinesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07903565410780862672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-41279440127566189552010-05-03T21:19:46.050-04:002010-05-03T21:19:46.050-04:00I'm glad you're back, too.

I always wanted to be a writer, I studied journalism in school, and I worked at it for a while...then I got sucked into PR/marketing. One of my goals for this year is to spend more time writing, not for money or even on my blog, but just for me. I'm hoping taking the pressure off will make me want to do it more and really get into it again!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07005036475888458542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-9293922644879193132010-05-03T16:08:36.524-04:002010-05-03T16:08:36.524-04:00Plans do change- but it's all for a reason.
