Thank you for that. I feel the same way and have managed to find a happy medium, as a psychology major, who is also pursuing athletics, and has put off dreams of filmmaking until a better time. People are generally rarely ever realistic or honest about dreams over better earnings, because to be honest, not being able to support yourself sucks, and may lead to you resenting your own dream. Filmmaking was my first choice (but my country’s entertainment industry is almost non-existent and doesnt pay), but I have fallen in love with Psychology, and given my other passion (athletics) a chance. My resume really good. I dont regret a moment of it. Young people need to balance dreams and reality
Thanks for commenting, Yvonne. The great thing about many passion careers is you can work on it in your spare time. I’m not sure what path you want to take with your film making but I’ve seen plenty of people do pretty well creating shorts and putting them up on Youtube.
In any case, it’s great that you fell in love with your main field. I see that happening as well, especially when the income is decent. When it’s not however, it can be difficult. I know teachers who no longer love teaching because of the low income.
Great advice. I earned a degree in mathematics and had a lot of trouble finding a job after college, even a low-paying one. In fact, my degree was actually a hindrance — several employers didn’t want to hire me because they assumed I would be bored doing menial work. I wish I had been more practical and chosen a major that would lead directly to a decent job. Also, you may not know what you want to do with your life, so you may as well plan for a good career while you continue to figure it out. Most people end up switching careers anyway.
Great advice and great site
Thank you!
I think today you need to be creative
Many years ago I studied in Paris at Cordon Bleu culinary school when that was not so popular as today, and I did an amazing and made lots of money because it was my own business and I came from the beginning in the business with an entrepreneur mind and vision
I retired from entrepreneur chef at 34 to be able have kids and be with them having regular work hours, I went in to different business of my own
And looking back I think if I had the wisdom I have now and combined psychology which I love as well with food marketing which I love, and go to work for one of the major global companies I am sure that today my position would be one leading position making lots more of money and working regular hours
So there you go, you like some thing for the soul but you need to study some thing for the pocket
Try to combine both of them be creative !
Good luck!
And remember
When preparation meets opportunity=luck
