As I am coming to the end of my university career the constant anxiety of “What am I gonna do with my life?!” Keeps popping into my head and clouding my thoughts. I have lots of ideas, I’m just worried how well I will be able to execute them and whether people will take me seriously in said industries etc. Even right now I find myself watching a YouTube video just for a breather before work (I have exams in four days) and my head keeps popping back to “what am I gonna do?”, “What should I be doing right now to further my career?” But I just need to keep telling myself that THE most important thing right now is to pass these exams because otherwise I’ll just be pulling myself back even more and amplifying my anxiety. It probably doesn’t help that I feel like there’s so many fulfilling productive things I could be doing other than reading/revising a somewhat monotonous module.
Breeeeeathe, enjoy the video and get back to work. You can stress about your future in 17 days.
P.S I Will be thought showering and strategising after my exams don’t worry. Leave that to me 😂😞
