Does such a thing exist? The ideal conditions the perfect amount of time, all the necessary content right at our fingertips…. while the last one may be truer than we realize the first two are not so easily attained.
Reality..We all have busy lives with a million things going on around us and it is a luxury to get some time and space to ourselves to indulge our minds and feed our passions with new exciting ideas. Do you have the ideal life and all the time in the world to dedicate to your studies? If so than I am envious, I love my life but it comes with some challenges Im sure most of us can relate to.
My time is limited and fractured, I have small windows during the day to do what I love and at the moment the two things i am passionate about is watercolour painting and working on building myself a career path through both in class and online education.
My greatest lifetime achievements have already happened, in fact they are running and jumping around in front of me throwing paper planes around the room as i write this…the risk of me or one of them taking one in the eye is very real right now, I am already a CEO a Chef a Nurse a VERY poorly paid Uber driver for little people the list could go on. I love my role as a Mother and it come first before anything else, however it leaves little time for anything else and that’s where online open learning comes in to save the day.
I have two career paths I would like to pursue, Psychology and Human Resources. I haven’t quite figured out which one I will go for so for now I have decided to take the time to prep myself for the road ahead. What ever I decide to do I want to be prepared to give it my all and that means using my time efficiently and using all the best resources I can find to give my self the best possible chance for success.
