Nearly everyone subscribed to my channel is related to college admissions. My life these days revolves around college admissions; my surroundings are also connected to this topic.
Through conversations with my friends, I realized that the biggest benefit of the admissions process is not just about getting accepted; it’s about knowing yourself. It turns out that many of my friends don't truly know themselves. Their goals often feel meaningless when they ask themselves “Why?” and follow it with another “Why?” They tend to follow others’ paths, never pausing to ask themselves why they are doing so.
Most of the reasons behind their desire to study XYZ at XYZ, or why they want to achieve XYZ, aren't their own. They were given these reasons. They were told to pursue these paths and were provided with reasons to do so. Perhaps this is why they feel sad or unsuccessful in their work. Who would be happy doing something they don’t understand for reasons that aren't their own?
Think. Don’t just do. Reflect on why you chase those goals. Are they yours? Is the reasoning behind them yours? Or did you see how others were doing this and decide to follow suit?
