I?m a typical generation Y child.
Monday, September 6th, 2010I?m a typical generation Y child. I started a degree when I finished school, thinking that it was just the next step in life.
Having only completed a year, I was stuck with so many decisions and had no idea what to do next. So I did what most gen Y kids do: I took a year off and headed overseas.
I knew from that point on that it wasn?t going to be easy finding the perfect career. I enjoyed being free and independent and hated the thought of feeling trapped in the corporate world.
I attempted another degree, this time in forensic biology. I found this truly amazing but discovered that this degree would only really fascinate me in theory, and not in practice. After finishing my degree I was still unsure of which path to take and still yearned for the freedom to travel. Last year I decided to move down to Thredbo for a snowboarding season and worked at one of the bars there. This lifestyle gave me the chance to discover what I really wanted out of life.
I decided from then on that I would set myself a four-year success plan, rather than locking myself into a nine-to-five career that would see me living from pay to pay.
