This is my first post, I felt summoned to post this because as of recently I’m in my second semester in college and I’ve been feeling very overwhelmed with the fact I feel lost. I’m starting to feel like my journey in college won’t lead me far, I’ve already failed two classes now I’m on hold for financial assistance and I’m still very lost in the same class that I failed in last semester, now finals are coming up and it’s a whole thing. On top of that I think it’s un motivating to go to college without having a “career” in mind it just feels like I’m floating with no purpose and I think it’s more so a pressure to go to college because its so ingrained that “you need college to be successful“. Although obviously we all know it’s not true especially now days but still it’s just ingrained to go to college. I just feel as if my journey in life is very different and I feel lost in that way. Also living in TX I think i dont get to see as much opportunities I would like, I think living in a place like California would fit me better because its a bit faster pace and everyones figuring it out in a entrepreneurial way. I just hope everything in my life ties together and I end up successful in all aspects of my life and I know I’ll get there i just don’t know how. ANYWAY if you read this and also relate I just want to let you know maybe our journey isnt linear because our destination isnt basic :)
