I'm not saying that there is one miracle course for each person, nor that life is bound by fate or anything similar. My point is that if you start an expensive uni course on a whim, then suddenly realize that it isn't as much fun as first thought in those previous, passion felt days, then you're going to be a bit stuck. If something genuinely interests you then go for it, but I'm just saying make sure that you actually want to do it first.Uzique wrote:

studying ANYTHING involves self-discipline and self-motivation. there will NEVER be the 'one' thing that comes along, ig, and snaps you up in a frenzy of studying and excitement. people talk about what they want to do with their life as if it's some fate-bound, deterministic thing: as if everyone has a 'role' and a 'reason' to be here. you don't. do what you enjoy and make the best out of what you can; studying won't get any easier as the years go on- especially when you're making money. the incentive to give up the money-making lifestyle and go back to being a student will shrink year after year. if you're interested in something enough to spend a few hours a day reading, writing or generally thinking about it, then DO IT. you have to discipline yourself to 'be' interested in something, non-stop, for 3-4 years i.e. a full degree. i mean, i fucking love books but some days i just don't even want to look at or think about my course-- but i have to. war history or whatever else you study will be the exact same.
don't wait for the miracle solution/course to come to you. it wont.
