106: What if you haven't found "your thing" yet?

from Make Some Noise with Andrea Owen · host Andrea Owen

http://yourkickasslife.com/106 Recently this topic has come across my radar. I’ve been thinking a lot about “your thing” and not the “thing” that refers to a man’s penis (although that would be a funnier post than this), but “your thing” in reference to your life purpose, your greatest passion, that thing you were put on this earth to do. (Let me just start by saying- fucking fantastic. Let’s add another enormous pressure to the never-ending list for women.) Sarcasm aside, let’s look at this for a moment. I’ve always thought it was crazy to ask 16 or 17 year-old kids to pick a college major. To actually pick something they want to do as a career. Forever. When I was 17, all I wanted to do was pick the right body suit to wear (remember those, early 90’s?), let alone what I wanted to study for 4 years, then do as a career. I envied my peers that did know and felt bad about myself that I did not. Clearly there was something wrong with me and I was a flake. Learn more about your ad choices.
