Switching majors for like the 8th time....

So after talking with my mom a bit, I decided psychology isn't the major I want anymore. Instead I'm changing it to early childhood development, hopefully I can actually stick with this decision and not regret it later... my counselor is going to be so annoyed 😪

I originally went to culinary school figured out restaurants and their gruelling schedules weren't for me. I am now back in school for music production. It is okay to change your mind. Thats the beautiful thing about life. You can decide to start over anytime and try something else until you find what motivates you intrinsically since extrinsic motivation like money or doing something for someone else. Will only only sustain you do far. Extrinsic motivation will eventually lead to burnout, depression, anxiety, high stress. Does the idea of early childhood development excite you internally? If so then go for it!

Most undecided major girls start in psychology . They drop when they get a dose of neuro anatomy.

Early child development is not going to make you a living without a PhD.

Most undecideds that stay in school end up in education because its the easiest degree plan to pass . I would say study how to educate dyslexic and autistic students. Learn how to sign fluently . Learn to read braille . THEN...as a teacher , you will be in demand and make a great living . Giving Private lessons in your home on the side only adds to your professional reputation and bank account . Its not going to be easy , but nothing worth doing ever is . Its a plan. Yiu will end up with a masters at minimum. A PhD would make you highly paid and you would be abke to help so many kids .

Just a thought. 😉

I did the same thing when I was in art college. The ONLY problem was...every time I switched majors I re-set to zero. I had to take THAT major's 101's and basically, begin all over again.

If it doesn’t make money don’t do it.
