How did you guys find out what degree you wanted in life? I am lost on what I want to do for a living. I don't want the normal answer of just do what you like. Just wanna hear how you found out what you wanted.

Um I was in your spot.

People tell me all this BS about "ohhhh you gotta learn to love your field" or "anon you should pick something you love."

Honestly fuck that.

Nothing could motivate me so I got into my current field because I just wanted to be the best at it. No family motivation or guidance, no epiphany or life-changing focus, none of that shit.

Pick a field, look at the salary, is it good? Good. Now go do it.

seriously just do it.

>Always wanted to run my parents' small nail shop
I like business and serving people
>they said I was too stupid
>I went to school for pharmacy tech certificate because everyone said the money was easy
>struggled to get good grades and my hobbies included getting /fit/ and reading psychology/marketing/business books for fun
>during my internship at a pharmacy, I had a great time but I knew pharmacy wasn't for me
>go to 3 colleges to talk about their business and psychology programs
>2 schools gave me shitty pamphlets about how great their school was
>3rd school, I found an advisor who sat and talked to me for 2 hours about business and personal development
>signed up for AAS in BA
I'm in my 3rd semester of this degree with my best GPA yet and persuaded myself into an office manager position at a law firm

My next degree will be a BABA and then a MBA.
I like people and I like business so it suits me.

The easiest way is to find what major is best for you is to graduate.

I would say both of your answers are correct. Either love your job or get compensated enough for it to not matter.
