“A perfection of means, and confusion of aims, seems to be our main problem.” - Albert Einstein

i'm at a crossroads with my career path. which direction to go? or do i dare attempt both roads? simply, should i double major or not?

the clock is ticking and this year, i really need to decide whether i want to stick to my major or change it. i'm leaning more towards the latter. sociology feels natural to me, but i like where human development will take me as far as a career goes. i'm already impatient with the time it's taking to complete one major, how will i live through TWO?

if i can manage to gather every ounce of motivation and faith in me, i would double major and then pursue my masters in the major i prefer most. what saddens me about this is that i won't be able to take classes just to take them, which in turn means i wouldn't be able to enjoy them as much.

making such a detrimental life decision has become somewhat frustrating because i don't know what to do. i - just - don't - know. i'm hoping that the answer will dawn on me this semester and that by the time this school year ends, i'll have a better idea of where to go. and i hope i can muster up the courage it will take to execute my final decision, whatever it may be.

i'm sure whichever direction you go, you will do great. I feel you it's hard to know EXACTLY what's for you. What career are you looking in to?
