Hi there

I'm starting another education in February 2014 (Bachelor of Social Education), which I'm looking very much forward to, and I feel really passionate about pedagogy/education and psychology as something to spend the rest of my life doing. I'd love to become a careers advisor.

The thing is, I'm really worried that this passion might not last. That I'll end up doing the same thing as I'm doing right now (I am studying at the 3rd semester currently) - finding it boring and having trouble imagining myself doing this in the future.

How can I ensure that this won't happen? Because, I've noticed a pattern in my way of living life.. I tend to take the easy way, and give up doing assignments. Like, if I have the possibility of not doing the assignment, I will make up an excuse not to do it.

Hope any of you have tried something similar, and have some advice

I had a similar situation with a College algebra class, because it seemed basic and I felt like I knew what I learned in class, but reinforcing it with practice and doing assigments that don't even have to be turned in will make you all that better in your career. If you are truly passionate, it's unlikely you'll lose that...you might just be a little bored with the schooling/classes right now. Ask for your instructors advice is my opinion. wishing you well.

I agree with aunt, in that if you're truly passionate, it's unlikely you'll lose that! Best of luck!!
