As a graduate, what do you regret most during your college years?
"At the age of twenty-seven, I don't dare to be lazy when I am running out of time." The lyrics of "Tourbillon" may be a portrayal of many college students who have just graduated and are impatient. If you had the opportunity to go back to the day when you first entered college, what would you tell your old self and what would remind you of your old self? After experiencing the merciless baptism of society, I believe many people will say: Plan well, Qianqi will not let herself be ignorant and waste these four years!
As a newbie in society, what regrets do you have in college?
Do you need to plan well?
When you first enter college, you may realize that college is much more free than in middle school. You can choose what activities you want to participate in and when you go to class. No one is in charge of it, and no one will force you to do it. In this way, you can freely choose to participate in many things except having enough Credit.
Precisely because the degree of freedom is so great, some people may not be able to adapt to it for a while, so they become addicted to the happiness of enjoying freedom in front of their eyes, without thinking clearly and planning what goals they want to achieve in the four years of college. Or planning how these four years can help you open up a path after graduation. Time passes, and when I wake up and can no longer fall behind, I have only a few days left in college. Even if I don't dare to be lazy at this time, it will be difficult to catch up with the progress.
While enjoying it, don’t forget to plan for the future
Click for career planning?
The most important thing about career planning is that you must have a clear direction and know what you want to do after graduation. Then just make a plan based on your own goals, clarify what you need to do in each school year to achieve your goals step by step, and then strictly implement the plans you set.
Set a general direction, otherwise you will just stand still
Do you have to do an internship?
Many people regard doing an internship as having a good career plan, so is it necessary to do an internship during college? In fact, it is not.
The biggest purpose of doing an internship is actually to show that you have relevant experience in the job you want to do in the future, so that you can express yourself well during job interviews. Indeed, internships are one of the most common ways to help college students achieve their career planning goals.
But it’s not the end of the world if you don’t complete the internship. There may be other things in your plan that are more important than doing the internship. For example, some people may choose to go for exchanges, participate in subject-related competitions, etc. As long as you have a clear plan and know what you want, and then execute it according to the plan, there will be no problem. There are many people who can still live successfully and comfortably even without doing internships.
Internship is only one of the ways
Summarize
So friends who are new to college, while enjoying the sudden freedom and happiness, remember to plan well, so that you don’t regret not planning for the future well after you graduate.
