Thinking about taking the plunge and diving back into the academic world? After dropping out of college it can be a little scary, intimidated, and nerve-wrecking to jump back in, especially if you are older than what some would call the normal college age. There are about 37 million Americans who have some college credits but have no degree because they stopped attending. There are many reasons students drop out of school.
There are so many advances that is seems like maybe mankind is running out of ideas but in order to truly understand the way we feel it might be helpful to compare it to how people felt over a century ago. A century ago people were fascinated with steam power, perplexed by the idea of flight, and overwhelmed with what we could do with science.
I imagine them thinking that there couldn't be much more to invent or create beyond that. Well space became another frontier and we got computers to do a hundred thousand things we couldn't do. So where are the boundaries and where are we heading? It really is hard to tell but we cannot discount the fact that creativity has defined our society since the stone age. With the new technology we are getting hundreds of new ideas every second of the day and it opens new possibilities that people would never have believed. So modernization is only a catalyst for creativity. So what are some of the hindrances of creativity?
Now that you are a little older and a little wiser you are probably more familiar with your own personal likes and dislikes, you are more likely to know what you prefer to do during the day, and you probably have a good idea of what it is you would like to study. Of course other factors that go into choosing your program and or field of study may include: cost, time, availability, and your own personal ability.
The idea of clones kind of scares us and yet that is what we force in our system today. It is just a breeding ground for similar thinking. So why not choose a path that could lead to creative thinking such as an art director, musician, or photographer? Sometimes these positions are not as respected in our culture and are becoming more and more of a hobby than actual prestigious positions. This may lead to huge concerns in the future as we begin to see a homogenous way of thinking that begins to destroy society inside and out.
As a nurse, you will have the opportunity to change people's lives for the better and to make a lasting impression on everyone you work with.
