At this point, im actually a little sick of school. I am grateful for what I have now, but right now my bachelor's degree is merely the most expensive piece of framed art in my house, I am still paying for it, thus my knowing my next step is to make more money.
Once that is achieved and I have made peace with academia, then I will follow my next dream of grad school, and my dream of paying for it WithOut loans!!
My desire to do crisis intervention, family counseling and life coaching has no root in what I learned in school. What motivates me is the workshops I got to do in Neurolinguistic Programming, EFT, Quantum Touch, massage, Reiki, and Matrix Energetics. I made things move in myself and motivated change in others way more than I ever did in the speech pathology or psych labs at the university! And talk about abundance manifestation, ALL (expt. Matrix E) these workshops I did were either given to me free, or are always free like EFT! Each of these were taught by friends who needed a 'beta-test', or people I MADE friends with because I really wanted to learn what they were teaching, and worked as an assistant.
Ash, if you are as good at encouraging change in others as you have been in initiating change in yourself, you will do well. The best credentials I can ever give anyone is to live my life well and model joyful, loving behavior!
