But here is the shocker—your college degree could actually be holding you back. Sounds unbelievable, right? We are told from childhood that “beta, first get a degree, then everything will be easy.” Yet when you look closely at the job market of 2024 and beyond, you see a different story.

But let me tell you, this is changing — and changing fast.

Your career is not something that happens to you. It's something you create, day by day, choice by choice, thought by thought. Every time you choose empowered thinking over victim thinking, you're literally rewiring your brain for success. Every small action you take builds evidence that you're someone who makes things happen.

Your career isn’t a checklist. It’s a canvas. And sometimes, the best thing you can do is erase that one line that never felt right—and draw again.

Letting go doesn’t mean you gave up. It means you gave yourself permission to grow.

 And self-discovery? That’s not luxury for the privileged. It’s your birthright.

But only if you make space for it.
