   Trade school. Not because I’m for them, but from personal experience, unless you know EXACTLY what you’re going to be doing the next 6 plus years from now, college is a big waste of time if you don’t buckle down and focus. At least with trade school, you’ll be able to take some technical skills after it’s said and done, however long you go.

   Long story, did under 2 years and never really decided on a major. Was pressured by parents to take specific courses for engineering or find a job while living at home. Was not a star engineer like my mom was, didn’t had the inclination for it and couldn’t convince her that I could do something I was remotely good at, or pursue an interest in.

   Unfortunately, traumatic experiences with family happened and I couldn’t focus on school while juggling a full-time job and keeping peace at home, and ended up dropping out. Ended up moving states and it wasn’t till later that wages started being garnished. Those stopped from what I know because I job hopped frequently, but I just know they’ll creep up again. Just coasting paycheck to paycheck on any job I can get a hold of in this economy. Not in such a great place financially. Looking into options outside a 9-5 but I keep asking myself, what was all that for, and why would I go back to keep looking for what I actually want to do?

   If you’re aimless like I was, trade school. If you don’t know what to do and choose college, pick a business major.

   Start analyzing and thinking about or tracking what energizes you. Organizing? Building? Presenting? Selling? Mediating? Leading? Strategizing? Imagining? Creating? Problem solving? Innovating? Helping? Communicating? Presenting? Researching? Teaching? Etc.
   I also like the careerexplorer .com website and the Strengthsfinder 2.0 books and test at gallup.com/cliftonstrengths/en/254033/strengthsfinder.aspx
   – it can be so empowering to start thinking of your career in terms of your strengths and skills… Trying some job shadowing experiences, internships or informational interviews is also super helpful and good networking-if you’re young (under 40) people really respect you for seeking out those experiences, so don’t hesitate to cold call or email people or organizations that might be interesting to you- careers should be like trying on clothes to see if they are a good fit!
