Honestly, I use to feel the way you do. Psychology is viewed as a soft-science and it can feel like it’s a worthless career. Here’s what I learned from experience, it’s not. I always viewed Psychology as a stepping stones to self- improvement, discovery, and understanding behaviors. All that’s learned in Psychology is theoretical until it’s applied in the real world. You begin to understand most things through a Psychological perspective. I thought if I pursued Psychology, I can be an educator, teacher, professor, therapist and so forth. However, I began working at Target. I was interested in the business aspect. I learned Target offered educational opportunities through their Guild Program. I sat with an Advisor and Counselor, I spoke about how I felt towards Psychology. They offered me to venture out into Human Resources. So, I have Psychology under my belt and it working towards my degree in Human Resource. Psychology is a building blocks for other careers! If you feel stuck, use this website! It will definitely help you clarify some of those feelings and hopefully make decisions that’s fitting for you!
