I was not sure where to even put this post but after thinking about it I realize this causes me anxiety so therefore here it's planted. Do you find it hard to make decisions? Recently I have decided to return to college to get a degree. That is not the hard part. I have been teaching for 16 years now. I teach in Christian schools - my degree I have is in Music and Christian Education. This degree is "just fine" for teaching in these type of schools. But as a husband I want to do better for my wife and I..and should there be children in the future for them also. I orginally decided if I was going to go back to college I was going to study and get a degree in "Human Services" which would lead to social worker type positions. But several days ago after thinking that "teaching" jobs would be easier to find when I get done (Teaching positions that reguire the right education degree which therefore pay more money..I am talking about double or even more than I make now) I decided to change my major. My heart is tugged in both directions. The classes on education do not get me all that interested. The classes on Human Service sounds interesting to me. The teaching degree will get me more money, better posistions, and probably be easier to find. The Human Service degree will get me more money (I do not want more money to be selfish I want it to provide) and who knows where I would find a position. In th elong run teaching sounds more "safe." Plus I have been teaching for this long already. Its just I keep feeling tugged in BOTH directions. I don't know what or how I would expect anyone to reply I just needed someplace to put this out there. Anyone else have this much trouble with decision?
