Yeah. You want to know what the people excelling in college are doing? Laughing at the med students still studying as they leave their labs at 2am to go decide whether they're going to fuck or sleep, knowing they don't have time for both.
Well it's that or they're living a balanced life. Idk I was fueled by fumes and insane dedication in college. Fuck I miss it, and the ability to live like that.
So, no one would notice if it changed or disappeared entirely, then? 🤷🏼♂️ Maybe someone should do their fellow humans a favor and correct this abusive bullshit. (Hell, the author might even out themselves in the process, which could open up all sorts of other fun, too.)
My ancestors are proud of me, because I know how to spell "disappointment", and have never written a misspelled word in black marker whilst trying to condescend to people I should be supporting.
You can treat it like every day is a sprint, but eventually you’re going to break down.
Take the pace that keeps you going, take breaks, walk if you need to.
When we’re all dead the only question that will have mattered was whether you were happy and not if you met some arbitrary bar in another persons head.
I was academically dismissed from college four time and have a university studies degree and a 2.0 GPA. I now have a 6 figure salary. You degree is only a peace of paper, don't sacrifice your heath for a peace of paper.
As a counterpoint, your salary is mainly a reflection on how much profit can be made by your skillset/location at a given point in time. I'm not a fan of tying people's worth to their profitability. It's devoid of any type of ethical concern.
If we as a society tie profitability to societal good, then I'll be on board.
I am right there with you, and went through a lot to get to this point. Also my salary is more a supply vs demand issue, I am a cost to companies but they need me.
University should break you to a certain degree, but it shouldn't shatter you or destroy you. It's like training for a marathon, if you just do sprints to failure every day you won't ever run a marathon you'll just get hurt. No you've got to slowly ramp up and take your rest days.
Maybe there was a group therapy and the exercise was writing the monologue they wake up to down...? Then they of course reflected together why those were not useful messages and they learnt better ways to address their worries. (Let me dream).

A business major wrote that. Their dream career is either a Crypto Life Coach, or a LinkedIn Recruiter.
