Change Your Mind--Sasha

As young adults we are taught to stick with something once we have decided upon it. A
life lesson to teach us that commitment is needed to lead a successful life, but the real truth is change is always necessary. Yes it is important to have stability in your life, but that does not mean you have to be unhappy. If you have already decided on the career you want because of the fast coming pressures of major life decisions or you just happen to know yourself quite well, chances are you will still change your mind about that career in some way. Humans need change and progress to keep going by staying healthy/happy in their minds. Almost every adult changes something in their career or goes to a whole different career in their lifetime of work. As you continue to go through many big events in your life as a senior, try to remember that no matter life will always throw you unexpected curveballs which could change your path, taking you on a different route. It's still okay to change your mind even if you've already put a lot of work into the original decision you made, learning and growing is a part of life. In society, changing your mind is often viewed as deeming someone an unreliable person and incapable of making adult decisions. But in fact, I believe it is the opposite if you can change your mind it helps a person become more self aware and also makes them brave. This person is taking a big chance to evolve and be the best version of them self that they can. 

Do you remember when you were a young child and people who were always older than you already asking what you wanted to be when you grow up? For as long as we were little children who could speak, we were given the question that is supposed to set the tone for our adult lives. Sure, you may know when you are a child and stick with it but we don't start actually thinking about what we want to do with our lives until later on. Whenever young people change their minds they're often faced with shame and regret on if they're making the right decision, but you will never know if you never try at least a little bit of it. As we go through this life it is important to be okay with the idea of changing your mind and going through many different experiences so you know what you actually love doing. You shouldn't commit to something you don't know much about, which is why as you learn and study more about it it's okay to change your mind. You don't want to live a miserable life at a job you don't enjoy, it will be hard to be happy and not let you lead a beautiful fulfilling life. Stay true to yourself and let yourself have as many different experiences as you can. Be willing to try new things, you'll thank yourself later and it will make you a well rounded person.
